Deep TMS Therapy for OCD
Your TMS journey starts with a consultation with Doctor Cho or one of our providers at Houston Mind and Brain who work very closely with him.
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) therapy is one of the most effective forms of depression treatment alternatives. It is an FDA approved treatment for depression and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD). TMS is an extremely safe and tolerated treatment. There can be local discomfort at the scalp but over 95% of patients tolerate the procedure without side effects.
TMS is effective in 2 / 3 of patients who receive treatment for Major Depressive Disorder. Out of these patients, they can experience a 50% reduction in their Depressive symptoms and even complete remission.

How dTMS Works
Deep TMS therapy uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the front part of the brain. Specifically, the Dorsolateral Prefrontal Cortex (DLPFC) is the target of stimulation. Research shows that the stimulation of this area of the brain reduces symptoms of depression in most patients. This stimulation is extremely safe and well tolerated.
