TMS Therapy in Orem, UT for Depression Without Medication

TMS is a noninvasive treatment thought to strengthen neural pathways and stimulate nerve cell activity. It can target key regions of the brain responsible for mental health and chronic pain disorders. It was FDA-approved in 2008 for Major Depressive Disorder and has continued to grow in popularity for its benefits to treat other health problems including trauma, OCD, migraines, and fibromyalgia.  During your TMS session, an electromagnetic coil will be placed on your scalp. This coil is designed with electrodes that will deliver magnetic pulses to stimulate nerve cells in targeted regions of the brain that you and your technician will decide to focus on. TMS can be personalized to your individual health needs and the problem being treated.

TMS Treatment for Depression

Depression affects millions of Americans each year, impacting their health and ability to function in daily life. Although standard depression treatment can offer relief for some people, it can take time and excess energy to find the right medications through trial and error. TMS therapy delivers effective, long-term relief for Major Depressive Disorder & Treatment-Resistant Depression.

TMS Treatment for PTSD

Harper Clinic’s TMS program follows an FDA-cleared protocol for depression. We do not currently offer a separate TMS protocol for PTSD. However, PTSD and depression often overlap, with shared symptoms like low mood, loss of interest, trouble sleeping, fatigue, trouble concentrating, and feeling hopeless or withdrawn. If depression symptoms are part of your picture, TMS for depression may be an option. Meet with our team for an evaluation to see what fits you.

TMS Treatment for OCD

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder can trap patients in a cycle of obsessions and compulsions, causing symptoms that paralyze their ability to function in everyday life. OCD can be difficult to treat through conventional therapies and may take a long time before patients find relief from symptoms. TMS can target deep areas of the brain and has a success rate of over 45% in reducing symptoms in patients with OCD. 

TMS Treatment for Chronic Pain

Harper Clinic’s TMS program follows an FDA-cleared protocol for depression. We do not currently offer a separate TMS protocol for chronic pain. Living with ongoing pain can bring depressive symptoms like low mood, loss of interest, poor sleep, fatigue, trouble concentrating, and hopelessness. If this sounds familiar, TMS for depression may be an option. Meet with our team for an evaluation to see what fits you.

The Harper Clinic Approach

TMS Therapy must be approved by one of our licensed mental health professionals. Our easy 3-step consultation process helps patients looking for treatment find the relief they need. 

TMS FAQ

What is TMS therapy and its benefits?

TMS is a noninvasive treatment that stimulates nerve cell activity in different regions of the brain. It can target key regions responsible for mental health and chronic pain disorders such as depression, trauma, OCD, migraines, and fibromyalgia.  

There are minimal side effects of TMS but patients may experience slight discomfort from the coil that is placed on the scalp, headaches, dizziness, and tingling or twitching in the facial muscles.

Patients who have metal implants, a history of seizures, or brain damage such as tumors or head trauma are not suitable for TMS. Pregnant and breastfeeding women should also avoid TMS due to the lack of research on how it could affect the developing fetus.
