TRANSCRANIAL MAGNETIC STIMULATION (TMS)
Experience Matters.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is an established, noninvasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to influence brain networks involved in psychiatric illness. CNY Psychiatry was founded in 2019 with TMS as a central clinical focus. Since then, our program has expanded to include conventional TMS, accelerated TMS, and selected off-label rTMS applications while our broader practice has grown beyond TMS itself.
The most important question is not whether TMS works.
The more important question is whether TMS is the right treatment for you.
WHAT DOES THE EVIDENCE SAY?
TMS has decades of clinical research supporting its use in major depressive disorder and is an established treatment rather than an experimental procedure. Evidence and regulatory status differ by diagnosis, device, target, and protocol.
At CNY Psychiatry, we distinguish clearly between established uses, emerging protocols, and off-label treatment.
OUR CLINICAL PERSPECTIVE
TMS should not be viewed simply as a “last resort,” nor should it be recommended merely because a patient has reached a certain number of medication trials.
Patient selection matters. Diagnosis matters. Previous treatment matters. The treatment protocol matters. Physician oversight matters.
TMS is a tool. The clinical decision about when and how to use it remains psychiatry.
