Welcome to TMS NOLA at Integrated Behavioral Health of Louisana
Here at TMS NOLA and Integrated Behavioral Health of Louisiana, we provide patients in New Orleans, LA and surrounding Gulf South area the latest in depression treatments. We are pleased to be able to offer Magstim TMS Therapy to our patients. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Therapy is one of the most technologically advanced depression treatments available. This non-invasive, outpatient therapy is FDA cleared and has helped thousands of depression patients who have not received adequate results from antidepressants.
TMS Therapy is the Right Choice
Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) uses a targeted pulsed magnetic field, similar to what is used in an MRI (magnetic resonance imaging) machine. While the patient is awake and alert, MAGSTIM TMS Therapy stimulates areas of the brain that are underactive in depression.
