TMS of the Carolinas: Raleigh Location
Welcome to TMS of the Carolinas, your dedicated provider of advanced Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) therapy located at 7780 Brier Creek Pkwy Ste 300, Raleigh, NC 27617. We specialize in offering state-of-the-art, non-invasive treatment options designed to help individuals suffering from specific mental health conditions find relief.
TMS therapy is a breakthrough treatment primarily indicated for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD), often when traditional treatments like medication and psychotherapy have not yielded sufficient results. Our Raleigh center is committed to providing this innovative therapy in a compassionate and professional environment.
At our facility on Brier Creek Parkway, we utilize FDA-approved TMS devices to deliver precisely targeted magnetic pulses. These pulses gently stimulate nerve cells in the brain's prefrontal cortex, an area often underactive in individuals experiencing depression. This targeted stimulation helps to restore balanced brain activity patterns, potentially alleviating depressive symptoms.
The TMS procedure itself is non-invasive, meaning no surgery or anesthesia is required. Most patients find the treatment comfortable, often describing the sensation as a tapping or clicking feeling on the scalp. Our team works closely with each patient to ensure their comfort throughout the session.
Our mission at TMS of the Carolinas' Raleigh location is to provide effective, evidence-based care for those struggling with treatment-resistant depression. We understand that seeking mental health treatment can be a significant step, and we strive to make the process as supportive and understanding as possible.
If you are interested in learning more about how TMS therapy might benefit you or someone you know, we invite you to contact our Raleigh center directly. Our knowledgeable team is ready to answer your questions and determine if you are a suitable candidate for this promising treatment option.

Frequently Asked Questions (Raleigh Location)
Q1: What is TMS therapy?
A: Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of certain mental health conditions, primarily treatment-resistant depression.
Q2: How does TMS work?
A: TMS uses a device that generates magnetic pulses through the skull to targeted areas of the brain involved in mood regulation. This stimulation helps to activate nerve cells that may be underactive.
Q3: Is TMS effective for depression?
A: TMS is FDA-approved for treatment-resistant depression. Many patients experience significant improvement in their depressive symptoms after completing a course of TMS therapy, often with fewer side effects than traditional antidepressants.
Q4: Do I need a referral for TMS at your Raleigh center?
A: While not always mandatory, we often find that a referral from a primary care physician or psychiatrist familiar with your treatment history can be helpful in determining if TMS is appropriate for you.
Q5: How long does a typical TMS session take?
A: A standard TMS session lasts approximately 25-40 minutes. Most patients can resume their normal activities immediately after a session, including work or other responsibilities.
