What is NeuroStar Advanced Therapy (TMS)?

NeuroStar delivers a unique form of TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation). TMS is a non-invasive therapy that uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain that are underactive in people suffering from depression.

Zion Healing Center in Rigby, Idaho is pleased to offer Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to all patients in Jefferson County. 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, NeuroStar TMS Therapy stimulates areas of the brain that are underactive in depression.

NeuroStar Advanced Therapy for Mental Health is an FDA-cleared, non-drug, non-invasive therapy that can help you achieve long-term relief from the symptoms of depression. Schedule a consultation with our Rigby treatment team today!

Effective Treatment for Depression

With more than one million treatments performed, this novel treatment approach to achieving remission is bringing new hope to people every day.

NeuroStar uses transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to target key areas of the brain that are underactive in people with depression. It is not ECT (electroconvulsive therapy).

While the exact cause of depression is not known, the leading scientific theory is that it is caused by an imbalance of the brain’s neurotransmitters, which are chemical messengers that send signals between brain cells.
