TMS treatments for MDD and treatment resistant depression.
LouisvilleTMS is operating under integrative psychiatry. We have both neurostar and magstim devices and treat off label protocols for a variety of illnesses besides depression. Currently OCD and MDD (major depressive disorders) are the only treatments that can receive insurance reimbursement. However we were able to increase empathy in one of our autistic patients who’s mother we had treated into remission years before. Within 4 weeks he told his dad for the first time at 12 years old that “he loved him”. Brain chemistry is critical in multiple aspects of physical and mental health, and we finally have developed the technology to manipulate that chemistry back to normal. Whether it’s the DLPFC (dorsal lateral prefrontal cortex) which is the part of our mood Center responsible for endorphin production. All the way to slowing down other parts that might be overactive in things like cortisol production and regulation causing crippling anxiety which often happens with depressed people. Originally invented in 1917 by a psychiatrist working on the same street as Sigmund freud at the time. We started in 2010 shortly after we finally were able to create the technology to deliver powerful enough stimulation that is also easily tolerable for patients. LouisvilleTMS.com
