TMS of the Carolinas - Raleigh Location
Located at 7780 Brier Creek Pkwy Ste 300, Raleigh, NC 27617, TMS of the Carolinas offers specialized, advanced transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) therapy for individuals seeking effective treatment options in our community.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a non-invasive therapeutic procedure designed to help manage symptoms associated with certain mental health conditions, most notably major depressive disorder. Using focused magnetic fields, TMS gently stimulates nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex, an area often underactive in individuals experiencing depression.
At our Raleigh facility, we provide TMS therapy as a potential alternative or complementary treatment for those who may not have found sufficient relief with traditional approaches like medication or psychotherapy. Our team is dedicated to delivering this advanced technology with precision and care.
Our approach focuses on personalized care. We begin with a thorough assessment to determine if TMS is appropriate for you. If recommended, our experienced technicians will guide you through the process, ensuring your comfort and safety throughout each session.
The TMS procedure itself is generally well-tolerated and does not require sedation. During a session, you'll remain awake and alert, simply sitting comfortably while the device delivers targeted magnetic pulses. Our state-of-the-art equipment allows for precise targeting of specific brain regions, optimizing the therapeutic effect.
We understand that taking the first step towards mental wellness can be challenging. Our Raleigh team is committed to providing compassionate support and clear information to help you make informed decisions about your treatment journey.

Q2: How does TMS work?
A: TMS uses a device that generates magnetic pulses through a coil placed against the scalp. These pulses pass through the skull and stimulate specific areas of the brain involved in mood regulation.
Q3: Is TMS therapy effective?
A: Research and clinical experience indicate that TMS can be effective for many individuals with treatment-resistant depression. Response rates vary, and a consultation is recommended to determine if TMS might be suitable.
Q4: How long does a typical TMS session take?
A: A standard TMS session typically lasts between 25 to 45 minutes. Most patients find they can return to their normal activities immediately after a session.
Q5: Does TMS therapy require anesthesia?
A: No, TMS is typically performed while the patient is awake and alert. No sedation or anesthesia is required during the procedure.
