Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) traces back to 1965 when scientists first discovered that magnetic fields could stimulate muscles in humans. Over the following decades, TMS technology evolved into a powerful depression treatment. The problem? It was painful, took countless sessions, and produced inconsistent results.
Fortunately, researchers went back to the drawing board and developed Exomind—a refined version of TMS. At Healthtec, we perform TMS therapy for depression in Abilene using Exomind’s cutting-edge technology.
TMS & Exomind at a Glance
Traditional TMS and Exomind both use magnetic pulses to reset brain function, treating depression, anxiety, and overall mental well-being. However, Exomind does so with greater convenience and results.
Comfort
Traditional TMS treatments are often loud and painful. Some patients even describe the sensation as like an icepick hammering against their scalp. Contrastingly, Exomind uses a new “trapezoid” pattern of
TMS delivery, which replaces the harsh, sudden bursts of traditional TMS for a more efficient and comfortable energy flow.
Speed
A patient of ours visited another practice for TMS treatment, where the protocol required a whopping 36 consecutive days of 1.5-hour-long sessions. This extended treatment time results from the older technology overheating and reducing energy efficiency.
In contrast, Exomind comes with advanced cooling, allowing it to deliver TMS energy much quicker than other devices. Exomind sessions release the same amount of energy as these 1.5-hour sessions in just 25 minutes! Plus, the Exomind protocol requires only 2 sessions per week for 3 weeks—that’s 30 fewer appointments overall!
Effectiveness
With its enhanced comfort and speed, patients have a much easier time sticking with Exomind treatment, leading to higher success rates than with traditional TMS. On top of this, emerging data shows Exomind can produce better results in less time.
The same patient of ours who experienced traditional TMS also tried Exomind, and said, ‘I felt better after Exomind’s 6 treatments than after all 36 treatments.’
Experience a New Era of Brain Stimulation With Exomind
At Healthtec, we avoid uncomfortable, ineffective options, especially when better solutions exist. With Exomind—arguably, the best treatment for anxiety—you can reach new heights in mental clarity and calmness.
