Patient results may vary. The outcomes reported represent the subset of study patients for which the CGI-S data were reported before and after an acute course of NeuroStar TMS. Patients were treated under real-world conditions where they may have been prescribed concomitant depression treatments including medications. “Improvement in depression symptoms” was defined as a CGI-S score ≤3 and “symptom relief (remission)” was defined as a CGI-S score ≤2 at the end of treatment.

Why TMS Therapy Is Different
TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) works differently from medication. You can think of it like physical therapy for the brain. It uses gentle magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood, helping them become more active over time.
What makes it different:
-
No medication required
-
No sedation or downtime
-
Targeted—not whole-body effects
-
No down time
When does TMS make sense?
TMS is often explored when:
-
You want a non-drug approach
-
Medication side effects are difficult
-
You’ve tried therapy or medication without enough progress
-
Progress feels slow or inconsistent
-
Symptoms keep returning
-
You don’t want to keep guessing what to try next
What can you expect?
-
About 20 minutes per session
-
Typically 5 days a week for 6–8 weeks
-
You stay fully awake the entire time
-
No anesthesia needed
-
Listen to music, relax, or use your phone
-
Return to normal activities right after
-
Many people notice improvement after only a few sessions

Important Safety Information
NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is only available by prescription. A doctor can help decide if NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is right for you. Patients’ results may vary.
The most common side effect is pain or discomfort at or near the treatment site. These events are transient; they occur during the TMS treatment course and do not occur for most patients after the first week of treatment. There is a rare risk of seizure associated with the use of TMS therapy (<0.1% per patient).
