At Concierge TMS, we exclusively use NeuroStar Advanced Therapy in all of our offices. We believe NeuroStar is the best choice for our patients for several important reasons:

 

1. Proven History and FDA Approval

NeuroStar, developed by Neuronetics, conducted the clinical trials that led to FDA approval of TMS in 2008. They have focused on TMS longer than any other company and established a treatment protocol that ensures consistent, effective results. This protocol guides the treatment length, energy levels, and number of sessions, all of which contribute to the therapy’s success and tolerability.

​

2. Precision and Personalization

The NeuroStar system provides precise measurements for each patient, ensuring the magnetic coil is placed in the exact location on the prefrontal cortex for every session. Many other systems lack this level of precision, which can affect comfort and treatment consistency.

 

3. Clinical Support

Neuronetics offers unlimited clinical consultation to every provider, which is   invaluable for addressing complex cases and ensuring the best possible care.

​

4. Patient Comfort and Low Dropout Rates

Patients tend to tolerate NeuroStar very well, with a lower dropout rate during treatment compared to other TMS systems. Because the magnetic energy is focused exclusively on the prefrontal cortex, the risk of side effects is minimal.

​

While no TMS system has been proven to be more effective than another, choosing NeuroStar ensures you are selecting a system that is well-studied, well-tolerated, and highly precise; all factors that support a comfortable, safe, and effective TMS experience.
