ABOUT US

Conscious Health & Wellness

There’s no shortage of mental health clinics. But where do you go when the treatment you’re used to receiving isn’t working? Or, what if you need something extra to help treat your mental health conditions? Conscious Health, led by our Medical Director, Dr. Brad Zehring offers a variety of unique services such as ketamine, TMS and other holistic therapies.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive method that uses magnetic waves to activate specific brain regions linked to conditions like depression and OCD. Approved by the FDA in 2008, it employs a magnet-equipped helmet targeting the pre-frontal cortex. TMS is ideal for those adversely affected by medications or their side effects. It can be safely combined with other treatments without downtime. For individuals seeking a drug-free option or those unresponsive to medications, TMS presents a viable alternative.

Advantages of TMS

TMS boasts multiple benefits, making it a valuable therapeutic option.

It’s non-intrusive: The procedure doesn’t require any surgery, meaning patients can resume their daily activities after a session. Plus, there’s no need for anesthesia.
It’s dependable: Though seizures are the most significant potential side effect of TMS, they’re extremely uncommon. The chance of experiencing a seizure in any given session is below 0.01%. Most other side effects are short-lived and mild.
It’s proven to work: While the efficacy of TMS varies depending on the condition, research consistently demonstrates its effectiveness.
It’s life-saving: TMS can be a vital treatment for conditions like major depressive disorder, which can be fatal if it leads to suicide. By alleviating depression symptoms or even causing full remission, TMS can literally save lives.
It complements other treatments: TMS can be combined with other therapeutic methods, including medication, psychological counseling, and more.

What To Expect

TMS therapy sessions are short, lasting only 20–45 minutes. For best results, we recommend consistent, regular appointments.

Before

Before your first TMS session, we will take you through an evaluation including medical history, symptoms, and your goals.

During

A trained specialist will fit a cushioned helmet onto your head to deliver the pulses in the right location. You will be awake and able to talk to our team at any time. You may hear a tapping sound, but earplugs are provided to reduce the noise. You are able to read, watch tv, or use your phone during the treatment.

After

After the session, you can immediately drive yourself home or choose to relax in the clinic a bit more. You can then continue with your normal daily routine. You may experience moderate headaches or irritation in the treated area, which usually resolve after the session and can be managed with over-the-counter pain medication.
