What is Apollo Advanced Therapy (TMS)?
During a TMS treatment session, a magnet similar in strength to that used in a magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) machine is used to stimulate nerve cells in the area of the brain thought to control mood. These magnetic pulses may have a positive effect on the brain’s neurotransmitter levels, making long-term remission possible.
Treatment with Apollo Advanced Therapy is easy:
– Therapy sessions are conducted here at our clinic
– You can return to normal activities right away
– You are awake during treatment
– There are no negative effects on memory or sleep
– It’s covered by most health insurance plans
