Frequently Asked Questions
Have questions about Accelerated TMS therapy? Here are answers to some of the most common concerns from our patients.
What is Accelerated TMS?
Accelerated TMS is an intensive form of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation that delivers multiple treatment sessions per day. This approach allows many patients to complete treatment in as little as one week while using the same non‑invasive technology as standard TMS.
How is Accelerated TMS different from standard TMS?
Standard TMS is typically delivered once per day over several weeks. Accelerated TMS compresses that schedule into multiple daily sessions, offering a faster option for eligible patients without requiring medication or anesthesia.
Is Accelerated TMS safe?
Accelerated TMS uses FDA‑cleared TMS technology and is provided under medical supervision. Most patients tolerate treatment well. Common side effects, when they occur, are usually mild and temporary.
Does Accelerated TMS require medication or anesthesia?
No. Accelerated TMS is non‑invasive and non‑sedating. Patients remain awake during treatment and can return to normal daily activities immediately afterward.
Is Accelerated TMS an option for military members or veterans?
Accelerated TMS may be a practical option for active‑duty service members, veterans, and military families in the San Diego area who prefer a treatment schedule that fits demanding or unpredictable commitments.
Is Accelerated TMS covered by insurance?
Insurance coverage generally applies to standard TMS schedules. Accelerated TMS is often offered as a self‑pay option. Costs and payment details are reviewed during your consultation.
How do I get started with Accelerated TMS at Advanced TMS?
The first step is scheduling a confidential consultation to determine whether Accelerated TMS is appropriate based on your symptoms, history, and treatment goals.
