NeuroStar Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
TMS is a good option for those who experience treatment-resistant depression or those looking for an alternative to medication for depression. Trying and failing multiple medications can be extremely frustrating and other alternatives like Electroconvulsive therapy can seem extreme.
Thankfully, TMS is a non-invasive alternative that does not come with the many side effects medication can cause.
SNBCare is partnered with NeuroStar, the leading therapy when it comes to TMS. 68% of people with treatment-resistant depression maintained their response for 12 months after Neurostar Treatment. They were the first to be FDA cleared and have operated for 14 years.
NeuroStar is FDA cleared for adults diagnosed with major depressive disorder (MDD) and as an adjunct for adults diagnosed with OCD

The NeuroStar Advanced Therapy System is indicated for the treatment of depressive episodes and for decreasing anxiety symptoms for those who may exhibit comorbid anxiety symptoms in adult patients suffering from Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) and who failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from previous antidepressant medication treatment in the current episode.
The NeuroStar Advanced Therapy system is intended to be used as an adjunct for the treatment of adult patients suffering from Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD).
NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is only available by prescription. A doctor can help decide if NeuroStar Advanced Therapy is right for you. Patients’ results may vary.
The most common side effect is pain or discomfort at or near the treatment site. These events are transient; they occur during the TMS treatment course and do not occur for most patients after the first week of treatment. There is a rare risk of seizure associated with the use of TMS therapy (<0.1% per patient).
