Aesthetic + Mind MD

Overview

Considering TMS therapy in Wellesley but unsure what actually happens during a session? Because TMS is unlike most medical treatments, knowing what to expect helps you approach the process with confidence. At Aesthetic + Mind MD, TMS therapy begins with a thorough consultation that reviews your symptoms, medical history, and treatment goals. This evaluation helps determine whether targeted brain stimulation may be a suitable component of your mental health care plan, particularly if traditional treatments haven't provided sufficient relief or you're seeking a non-medication-based approach. During a session, a specialized device is positioned near the scalp to deliver controlled magnetic pulses to targeted brain areas. These pulses pass painlessly through the skull. Most patients describe the sensation as a light tapping or rhythmic pulsing on the scalp. You remain awake and comfortable throughout — many patients simply relax, listen to music, or sit quietly while the device performs the stimulation. Individual sessions typically last 20 to 40 minutes. Treatment plans usually involve multiple sessions per week over several weeks to build cumulative neural stimulation. Providers monitor your response throughout and adjust parameters when needed to support gradual improvements over time. If you're exploring TMS therapy as part of a broader mental wellness plan, scheduling a consultation is the next step. Book your appointment today.
