A new, non-invasive treatment at Wheeler’s New Britain community health center at 40 Hart Street will help patients find relief from symptoms of depression.

Referrals are now being accepted for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), a novel and effective specialty behavioral health treatment from NeuroStar®. This  therapy uses magnetic fields to activate regions in the brain which have decreased activity in patients with depression.

WHAT TO EXPECT
TMS is a highly effective, FDA-approved treatment for depression which can be utilized with or without medication and is now being offered at our New Britain location daily. Treatments last approximately 20 minutes, and following each session patients may resume regular activity. A course of treatment can be prescribed for up to seven weeks, based upon how quickly patients’ symptoms resolve and ongoing  discussion with their provider.
