Theta Burst Stimulation in Brandon, FL
Theta Burst Stimulation (TBS) is an advanced form of brain stimulation therapy that uses brief, patterned magnetic pulses to target specific areas of the brain. At Brandon TMS & Psychiatry, we offer this innovative treatment as a shorter-session alternative to traditional repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS).
TBS is designed to modulate neural activity in areas of the brain involved in mood regulation while providing a non-invasive treatment experience that can fit more easily into a patient’s daily routine.
Request an AppointmentWhat to Expect With Theta Burst Stimulation
Theta Burst Stimulation delivers brief but concentrated bursts of magnetic pulses to targeted regions of the brain. Treatment is performed while you remain awake and comfortably seated.
- Quick and Targeted: TBS sessions are typically much shorter than standard TMS treatments and may take less than 10 minutes, depending on the prescribed protocol.
- Focused Stimulation: Magnetic pulses are directed toward specific areas of the brain associated with mood regulation.
- Non-Invasive: Treatment does not require surgery, anesthesia, or a recovery period.
- Minimal Discomfort: Patients may feel a tapping sensation on the scalp while the magnetic pulses are delivered.
