Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) is a painless, non-invasive, in-office procedure that uses magnetic fields to treat symptoms of depression. TMS is typically used when more traditional treatments for depression, including medication, have been ineffective.

“I tried TMS therapy because medications had not helped. Within one week I noticed a big improvement in how I felt, and the results have lasted. TMS was the quickest, and had the most dramatic improvement, of any depression treatment I have tried.”

Trinity Wellness Center TMS Patient

A New Therapy That is Revolutionizing Mental Health Treatment

Trinity Wellness Center is a recognized leader in mental health treatment in the Wilmington region, known for coupling time-tested treatments with today’s most innovative scientific tools to treat and heal mental health disorders. Now we are proud to offer a new therapy that is revolutionizing the way mental health is treated – using magnetic waves to heal the specific area of the brain that is impaired in depression. It’s called TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation), and this FDA-approved therapy can be successful in even the most treatment-resistant forms of depression. Not only that, we are utilizing the latest and most advanced form of TMS, called Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS). iTBS is an accelerated, more targeted form of TMS, creating faster and longer lasting results. We are currently the only provider in the region offering iTBS, and we are excited to be able to offer this life-changing treatment to the community.

How does TMS work?

An electromagnetic coil placed over the patient’s head sends repetitive magnetic pulses through the skull to activate neurons in specific areas of the brain responsible for mood regulation. By restoring chemical imbalances in these areas, symptoms of depression can often be significantly reduced or sometimes completely resolved, dramatically improving quality of life.

Are all TMS treatments the same?

Not exactly. That’s what makes Trinity Wellness Center so unique in the treatment of depression in the Wilmington area. Trinity Wellness is the regional leader in the use of Theta Burst Stimulation (iTBS), the latest, most advanced form of TMS technology. While significantly decreasing treatment time (from the standard 20 or 30 minutes to just three minutes), studies show that iTBS consistently produces equivalent results in a shorter amount of time than more conventional TMS. For most patients, that means maximum therapeutic effect with minimal discomfort that can be achieved over a lunch break. With this accelerated, high-dose treatment – available only at Trinity Wellness Center – patients with depression or treatment-resistant depression experience rapid results, significant relief, and minimal, if any, side effects.
