Targeted Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (tTMS) is a non-invasive treatment that can improve the symptoms of depression .
tTMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate the neurons in the brain related to mood and anxiety, where communication between them is either overactive or underactive.
It’s medically safe, recommended by the National Institute for Health and Care Excellence (NICE), pain-free and can deliver effective results within two weeks.
Side effects are uncommon and, where they do occur, are very mild.
If you’re in a mental health crisis and need urgent help, call the Single Point of Access on (01472) 256256 and select option 3. They are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
Alternatively, you can call NHS 111 free from a landline or mobile phone.
