TMS Therapy For OCD
Associations and Accreditations
Why Choose TMS for OCD?
OCD Treatment In New Jersey
OCD is a complex disorder with multiple factors that impact people’s daily lives as well as long-term goals and life plans. Its complexities lead it to be difficult to treat with first-line therapies, such as psychotherapy and medication. Novel treatments have been explored to find a solution for patients who experience notable difficulties in remedying their symptoms. TMS is one such approach that has been approved specifically for OCD treatment. Research investigating the efficacy of TMS for patients with OCD has demonstrated promising results and offers hope for individuals on their journey to alleviate obsessive and compulsive tendencies and regain control over their daily lives.
How We Conduct TMS
OCD symptoms are best addressed when TMS sessions are followed according to a scientifically developed protocol that maximizes the benefits TMS has to offer. Patients typically notice the greatest improvement in symptoms after completion of the treatment protocol. However, some patients also report alleviation of symptoms after just a few weeks of TMS sessions. A typical OCD treatment schedule involves 5 sessions a week over 6 weeks, amounting to 29 sessions in total. We also offer accelerated TMS options for greater flexibility, catering to patients who prioritize time efficiency.
Our trained professionals administer TMS sessions over 20 minutes. A device containing a metal coil is placed above the patient’s head to stimulate the brain region specific to the symptoms being treated. Throughout the session, patients are welcome to relax and listen to any custom music we offer. Outside of the treatment room, we have other modern facilities, including a snack and beverage bar available to patients.
