Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation TMS Turin

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an innovative and very promising treatment for various neurological and psychiatric pathologies, such as:

  • Depressive disorders
  • Bipolar Disorders
  • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder
  • Anxiety disorders
  • Personality disorders
  • Psychotic disorders
  • Disorders related to substances of abuse and addictive disorders
  • Disorders related to traumatic and stressful events
  • Gilles de la Tourette syndrome
  • Alzheimer’s disease
  • Parkinson’s disease

It is carried out in synergy with other therapies, such as e.g. pharmacology, psychological interviews and rehabilitation. Transcranial magnetic stimulation can restore neuronal cells to the status quo, contributing to the regression of some psychiatric and neurological pathologies. Transcranial magnetic stimulation, TMS, together with cognitive behavioral therapy, CBT (Cognitive Behavioral Therapy), helps treat addictions, such as alcohol, drugs or cannabis and reduces the desire to smoke or to consume other psychostimulant substances.

Scientific studies carried out show that 47% of patients treated with TMS for major depression responded to therapy and 27% achieved remission of symptoms. Further studies show that TMS is a promising technology to treat neurological pathologies such as Alzheimer’s and Parkinson’s disease on which it seems to have efficacy in the remission of motor and cognitive symptoms.

The programs offered by the Santa Caterina di Siena Hospital take approximately one month, from the initial clinical assessment of the patient to the completion of the series of TMS treatment sessions. In some cases it is useful to continue with boosters with TMS sessions in the following months. The Clinic adopts operational protocols developed in collaboration with Columbia University and the CUNY School of Medicine in New York, Harvard, London (UCL), Lausanne (EPFL), and Oxford.
