What is rTMS?
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation method that uses a changing magnetic field to induce electrical currents in specific brain regions through electromagnetic induction. An electrical pulse generator (or stimulator) is connected to a magnetic coil placed against the scalp. The stimulator generates a changing current within the coil, creating a changing magnetic field that induces currents in specific areas of the brain. rTMS has shown great potential in the diagnosis and treatment of central nervous system disorders and can be used to treat a variety of neurological and mental health conditions.
Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) is a non-invasive brain stimulation technique. It uses coils placed on the scalp to generate focused pulsed magnetic fields. These fields pass painlessly through the skull and induce weak electrical currents in specific brain regions.
These induced currents can activate or inhibit nerve cells in the target area. Repeated treatment leads to more lasting changes in brain circuitry. This process, based on neuroplasticity, helps restore abnormal neural function to normal.High-frequency stimulation typically enhances brain activity, while low-frequency stimulation reduces it. This ability to modulate cortical excitability is the basis for its therapeutic applications, such as treating depression by stimulating the prefrontal cortex, which regulates mood.

1.19 Treatment Modes: Choose from 8 fixed frequencies and 11 variable frequencies to personalize treatments for a variety of conditions.
2.Non-Invasive&Pain-Free:rTMS is a safe, non-surgical procedure that doesn't require anesthesia. Patients can expect a comfortable experience with no incisions, as the magnetic pulses are generally well tolerated.
3.Targeted Therapy:rTMS specifically targets the areas of the brain related to the patient's condition,providing localized treatment while leaving surrounding regions unaffected.
4.No Side Effects: As a drug-free alternative, rTMS is ideal for patients who may not respond well to medications or experience adverse side effects.
5.Long-Lasting Benefits: Many patients report significant, lasting relief from symptoms of depression, anxiety, and PTSD following a complete treatment course.
6.Versatile Applications: rTMS is effective for a wide range of neurological and psychiatric conditions, including depression, chronic pain, stroke recovery, addiction, and cognitive disorders, making it a highly adaptable treatment option.
Research proves
Numerous clinical studies have confirmed the efficacy of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) in treating and improving symptoms of various diseases. As a non-pharmacological and non-invasive treatment, TMS has demonstrated strong efficacy in treating major depressive disorder, particularly in treatment-resistant cases.
Studies have also confirmed its therapeutic benefits for anxiety disorders, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and chronic neuropathic pain. TMS modulates neural activity in specific brain circuits through focused magnetic pulses, promoting changes in neural plasticity, thereby alleviating symptoms and improving function.
