Renewed Light Mental Health of West Deptford proudly announces the expansion of its mental health services with the introduction of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) Therapy using the NeuroStar Advanced Therapy System. This innovative, non-invasive, and drug-free treatment has shown remarkable effectiveness in addressing various mental health conditions.
About TMS Therapy
TMS Therapy is a groundbreaking treatment method that utilizes magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain, improving symptoms of depression and other mental health disorders. Unlike traditional medication-based treatments, TMS Therapy offers a targeted approach with fewer side effects, making it an attractive option for patients who have not found success with other treatments.
The therapy involves placing a magnetic coil on the patient’s scalp near the forehead. The device sends magnetic pulses to specific brain areas involved in mood regulation, stimulating neural activity and alleviating symptoms. Each session lasts about 20 to 40 minutes, with patients typically undergoing treatment five days a week for four to six weeks.
Effectiveness and Benefits
Clinical studies have demonstrated that TMS Therapy is highly effective in treating major depressive disorder (MDD), especially in patients unresponsive to antidepressant medications. Response rates for TMS Therapy are approximately 83%, with remission rates around 62%. This means that more than half of the patients experience significant relief, and over a third achieve complete remission.
In addition to depression, TMS Therapy is used to treat other mental health disorders, including obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), anxious depression, and adolescents’ mental health issues. Its non-invasive nature and lack of systemic side effects make it a highly attractive alternative to traditional pharmacological treatments.
Addressing Mental Health in New Jersey
New Jersey faces significant mental health challenges, with nearly 17% of adults experiencing some form of mental illness annually. Depression, anxiety, and PTSD are prevalent, affecting thousands of residents and profoundly impacting their quality of life, ability to work, and relationships.
According to the National Alliance on Mental Illness (NAMI), approximately 4.3% of adults in New Jersey have serious mental illness, a rate higher than the national average. The COVID-19 pandemic has further exacerbated these issues, with increased anxiety and depression reported across the state. The introduction of TMS Therapy at Renewed Light aims to make a substantial impact, providing residents with access to a cutting-edge treatment option that can lead to meaningful recovery.
