In these instances when they fail, TMS might be used as an alternative treatment, or to augment antidepressant medications or psychotherapy. In our practice we offer all of them. In cases of major depression, Electro Convulsion Therapy (ECT) can be an alternative to TMS.
Non-pharmacological treatment of psychiatric problems become increasingly important and is one of the focus area in modern Brain research. Researchers are presently conducting a large number of clinical studies to evaluate who will benefit most from TMS therapy. For example, there is a lot of interest in evaluating whether TMS with antidepressant medications or other form of adjunct therapies is more effective than TMS alone.
