About NeuroStar TMS Therapy
NeuroStar uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to activate parts of the brain that are underactive in patients experiencing depression. TMS therapy is not the same as ECT (electroconvulsive therapy).
The exact cause of depression is still undetermined. However, the leading scientific theory is that depression is triggered by an imbalance of neurotransmitters in the brain, which are chemical messengers that deliver information between brain cells.

What is NeuroStar Advanced Therapy (TMS)?
During a NeuroStar treatment session, a magnet similar in strength to that used in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine is used to stimulate nerve cells in the area of the brain thought to control mood. These magnetic pulses may have a positive effect on the brain’s neurotransmitter levels, making long-term remission possible.
Treatment with NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is easy:
✓ NeuroStar therapy sessions are conducted in our office
✓ You can resume normal life activities immediately
✓ You are awake during the entire treatment
✓ There are no negative effects on memory or sleep
✓ It’s covered by most health insurance plans, including Medicare and Tricare
How NeuroStar TMS Therapy™ Works
Here’s what you can expect from a NeuroStar Advanced Therapy (TMS) session at the Holiner Group:
Before Treatment
Sit back comfortably in a recliner chair. A curved magnetic coil will be positioned lightly on your head.
During Treatment
NeuroStar delivers focused magnetic stimulation directly to the target areas of the brain. You’ll hear a clicking sound and feel a tapping sensation on your head.
After Treatment
NeuroStar Advanced Therapy: Depending on your doctor’s recommendation, each treatment takes between 19 and 37 minutes.
You can resume normal activities immediately. Because there are no effects on memory, sleep, or alertness, you can drive yourself to and from treatment sessions. NeuroStar TMS Therapy in-office treatment takes 19-37 minutes and is administered 5 days a week for approximately 4-6 weeks.*

Frequently Asked Questions
Transcranial magnetic stimulation, often referred to as TMS, is a noninvasive procedure that uses magnetic
fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. TMS is typically used when
antidepressant medications haven’t been effective, have ceased working, or as an alternative to medication.
TMS involves delivering magnetic pulses to specific parts of the brain.
A typical initial course of treatment is about 19-37 minutes daily over 4-6 weeks.
A vast majority of commercial and Medicare plans have recognized the effectiveness of treating depression
TMS does not circulate in the blood throughout the body, so it does not have side effects like weight gain,
sexual dysfunction, nausea, dry mouth, sedation, etc. The most common side effects reported during clinical
trials were headache and scalp discomfort-generally mild to moderate–occurring less frequently after the
first week of treatment.
No. TMS Therapy involves a unique method of using pulsed magnetic fields for a therapeutic benefit. The
intensity of the magnetic field is similar to that of an MRI. These techniques differ radically from the popular
use of low intensity, static magnetic fields. Those products deliver weak and undirected static fields that are
not capable of activating brain cells. The activation and stimulation of brain cells is a key part of why TMS is
so effective.
