Many people in Maryland living with depression find that traditional treatments—such as antidepressants or talk therapy—do not always provide the relief they need. For these individuals, TMS and brain plasticity in depression therapy may be a powerful alternative that offers lasting improvement.
At Synergy Star, we provide NeuroStar TMS Advanced therapy to patients with depression and other mood disorders. We serve communities in Columbia, Towson, and Silver Spring. Discover how TMS therapy taps into your brain’s inherent capacity to adapt and reorganize itself—a process known as brain plasticity.
Brain plasticity, also called neuroplasticity, is the ability of your brain to change throughout your life by rebuilding your neural connections. This rebuilding is crucial for learning, memory, and recovery from brain injuries. In patients who suffer from depression, certain brain regions associated with mood regulation tend to have low brain activity. This leads to persistent low mood and other symptoms. Using TMS therapy, we can stimulate brain plasticity, restoring the normal function in these brain regions and alleviating depressive symptoms.
TMS utilizes small magnetic pulses to target the areas of your brain that are responsible for mood regulation. At Synergy Strive, our clinicians use NeuroStar Advanced TMS to boost activity in these key regions, which can help stabilize your mood and provide relief from depression and other mood disorders. Extensive research supports this FDA-cleared therapy, including studies involving patients with treatment-resistant depression.
TMS therapy promotes neuroplasticity by encouraging your brain to form new, healthy neural connections. When you complete your full course of TMS therapy, you may experience significant improvements in your mood, energy levels, and overall mental well-being. Many of our Maryland patients start noticing improvements by the fourth week of treatment, some even earlier. The majority experience substantial relief by the end of their TMS treatment course.
We deliver our TMS treatment in a multi-week course, consisting of multiple sessions per week. We tailor the specific length of each session as well as the number of sessions to your particular condition, based on your treatment plan. Generally, many of our patients come in for a 19-minute session, often about five to six times per week, for a duration of about seven weeks.
