(Coming Soon!) TMS Could Be The Solution To Treating Your Depression and Getting Your Life Back.
Have You Tried Multiple Antidepressants With No Relief?
Depression Starts In The Brain
Depression is a chemical dysfunction that causes reduced brain activity. TMS boosts brain activity.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a medication-free treatment for depression. TMS utilizes MRI-strength magnetic fields to deliver magnetic pulses that stimulate nerve circuits in the brain involved in mood regulation and depression. It activates regions of the brain that exhibit reduced activity during depressive episodes. TMS is a non-invasive, office-based procedure cleared by the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) in 2008 for treating Major Depressive Disorder. Typically, TMS is considered when other depression treatments have not been effective.
TMS Offers Efficient Symptom Relief Without Medication Side Effects

TMS Boosts Brain Activity
These are images from a SPECT Scan1 (single photon emission computed tomography) scan of the cumulative results from 12 men receiving TMS.
The red-orange in these images show increases in blood flow in the brain as a result of TMS treatment. The bottom left image shows increased blood flow below the TMS coil. Other images also reveal increased blood flow in deeper brain regions involved in mood regulation and correlate with how TMS treats depression.
This scan is an example of how TMS only directly affects the brain circuits involved in mood regulation and not other circuits as medications do, resulting in unwanted side effects.
With the Apollo TMS Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Patients Experienced…
19-minute Treatment Sessions
Treatments are administered five days a week for six weeks, followed by a three-week taper phase. A typical course of TMS would be a total of (36) 19-minute sessions. Similar to physical therapy appointments, you will be scheduled and receive treatments as you continue to progress and complete the full course of treatments.
81% Response Rate
In controlled clinical studies of TMS, 81% of patients with major depression who have tried and failed to receive benefits from medications experienced a meaningful response.
52% Remission Rate
Patients experienced complete symptom relief after the full TMS therapy.
Scientifically proven and FDA-cleared for treatment-resistant depression.
Covered by most insurance plans.
Highly effective drug-free treatment for patients with MDD who have tried multiple antidepressants with no relief.
Effective, Non-invasive, No anesthesia or sedation required, with little or no side effects. Resume normal activities after treatment.
