NeuroStar TMS Therapy

If antidepressants have not given you the relief you hoped for, you are not out of options. NeuroStar TMS therapy is a noninvasive, drug free treatment that gently wakes up the areas of the brain involved in mood. At Best Life Psychiatry in Benton, we use NeuroStar Advanced Therapy, the most widely used TMS system in the United States, to help adults and teens find lasting relief from depression and obsessive compulsive disorder.

It is not ECT. There is no sedation, no anesthesia, and no recovery time. You stay awake, you drive yourself home, and you go right back to your day.
