 Each person’s unique chemistry makes it challenging to prescribe antidepressants. Men and women with depression may try several prescriptions for treatment, only to find that medications have not resulted in a reduction or elimination of depressive symptoms. Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or dTMS, offers an evidence-based, non-drug intervention for depression that can relieve symptoms and result in newfound hope for individuals challenged with finding treatment that works. Learn more about one dTMS user’s experience with this cutting-edge service. |
