HistoryProviding mental health services in Monmouth County, NJSpecialtiesTranscranial Magnetic Stimulation therapy for treatment-resistant depression located in Colts Neck, NJ. We are one of the first Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy centers in central NJ. TMS treats depression in cases where medication has failed. TMS Therapy was FDA-cleared for treating depression in 2008 for those that are unresponsive to medication, have unwanted side effects, and/or are non-compliant to a medication regime. When treating depression, the focus of TMS Therapy is on the left Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) region of the brain. This depolarizes the neurons in that lobe, stimulating monoamine neurotransmitters and increased function of the electrical circuits that drive brain activity. An increase in brain activity increases blood flow, oxygen levels and sugar metabolism; the result is improved activity of the 'feel good' neurotransmitters (dopamine, serotonin, norepinephrine) which drastically alleviates the symptoms of depression and which provides an opportunity to achieve full remission for nearly half of the people that complete this protocol (37.5 minutes at 10 pulses/second for four seconds, 26 second intervals, 3,000 pulses total).
