How it works

rTMS targets the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and related fear-processing networks that are dysregulated in PTSD, helping to reduce intrusive symptoms, hyperarousal and emotional reactivity.

Who it suits

Adults with PTSD — including veterans, first responders and survivors of trauma — who want a non-invasive option, or who have not fully responded to psychotherapy and medication. Each patient is carefully assessed before treatment is recommended.

Frequently asked questions

Is rTMS effective for PTSD?+

Multiple clinical trials support rTMS for PTSD, with reductions in intrusive symptoms, hyperarousal and co-occurring depression. It is increasingly recommended for patients who have not fully responded to therapy or medication.

Can I continue trauma therapy during treatment?+

Yes. rTMS often pairs well with trauma-focused psychotherapy, and many patients find therapy more productive after a course of stimulation.

Will it bring up traumatic memories?+

rTMS itself does not trigger memory recall. It modulates underlying brain networks and is generally well tolerated. We will support you throughout the week.

Can I stay on my current medication?+

Usually yes. rTMS is typically combined with existing medication, and any adjustments are coordinated with your prescribing doctor.
