If you are considering NeuroStar TMS therapy at our practice, one of your key questions is likely going to be “How long does NeuroStar last?” This is a great question to ask, and it’s natural to want to know how much time it can take before you can experience the benefits of NeuroStar—especially when you have already tried other mental health treatments without success.
We will discuss how long the effects of NeuroStar treatment can last, how many TMS sessions you may need before seeing improvements in your mental health, and when you can start managing your symptoms and feeling better. Keep in mind that every patient will respond differently, so the best way to get a clear understanding of how TMS will work for you is to schedule a consultation with a medical specialist at Genesis TMS and Wellness.
One of the reasons why medical professionals look to NeuroStar as an effective TMS treatment is because of its quick and easy treatment process. NeuroStar’s simple and straightforward approach makes it easy for patients to achieve relief without experiencing major disruptions to their daily lives. Typically there is no cognitive impairment following NeuroStar, and patients do not require any downtime or monitoring following their NeuroStar TMS session—they can return to their daily living activities immediately.
At Genesis TMS and Wellness, NeuroStar is delivered in rapid, convenient sessions by our skilled and experienced TMS specialists. The standard treatment course typically lasts about seven weeks, but this period can vary depending on the complexity of your mental health needs. Since there is no recovery time needed after each session, it is very easy to integrate NeuroStar into your busy lifestyle, making it a great choice for those who don’t want to take time off from their regular routine.
NeuroStar is backed by a wealth of strong clinical research. This treatment has been tested extensively in clinical trials. These studies show that the positive effects of NeuroStar treatment can last up to a year.
What does this mean for you, as a patient? If you follow your prescribed treatment plan, you can generally expect long-lasting improvements from your NeuroStar therapy, including a better and more improved mood, fewer depression symptoms, and a greater desire to engage socially. Should your positive effects from NeuroStar begin to fade over time, schedule a consultation with our office to discuss your options.
Is this time commitment worth it? For many patients, the answer is yes. In just under two months of NeuroStar treatment, you can experience significant relief from certain OCD and depression-related symptoms—and many patients have achieved lasting relief for up to a year. This long-term benefit is one of the key reasons why NeuroStar Advanced TMS therapy is so highly recommended by mental health professionals.
