Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation - An Effective and Affordable Treatment to Fight Depression

A state of low mood that affects a person’s thoughts, behavior, feelings and sense of well-being is known as depression. It is a common yet serious mood disorder and its seriousness is determined by the period it lasts for.

  • Transcranial magnetic stimulation - final step to treat depression

After exhausting all depression treatments, one turns to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a non-invasive procedure that utilizes a targeted pulsed magnetic field to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression.

  • Functioning

TMS is administered when the patient is awake and alert and takes up to 40 minutes to complete. An electromagnetic coil is placed against your scalp near your forehead. The magnetic pulse delivered by the electromagnet, stimulates the nerve cells in that region of your brain which is involved in mood control and depression.

The targeted pulse magnetic field stimulates the affected region of the brain and results in active changes by eliminating the inactivity that the brain is suffering from. The process is a simple in-office treatment that is administered in approximately four to six weeks. Since, the treatment involves delivering repetitive magnetic pulses to the brain, it is also called as repetitive TMS or rTMS.

For the internal regulation of the human body, we not only need food, water, sunlight and air but also the natural magnetic signals of the earth. Due to our constant use and abuse of technology in the form of mobile handsets, power grids, satellite signals, broadcast stations, asphalt, drainage pipes and other such electrical appliances, the earth’s magnetic fields have decreased over the last 400 years. Healthy magnetic fields are essential in supporting an effective immune response and a healthy overall body. Cancer is a systemic disease and just treating the symptoms won’t help to heal the body. In order to make healing possible, the diseased environment of the cell, tissues and the whole body needs to be addressed first. PEMF Pulsed electromagnetic therapy for cancer , is an ideal resolve since it enables the human body to activate the healing process, after inducing massive amounts of energy, just the ideal combination. The PEMF therapy improves the micro-circulation, incr...

Magnetic therapy annual sales are estimated at $300m (£171m; €252m) in the United States and more than a billion dollars globally. They have been publicized to cure a vast array of ills, particularly pain sensation. A Google search for the terms “magnetic and healing” omitting “MRI resonance” yielded well over 10 000 pages, most of which suggested by consultants as healing by magnets. almag 01 magnet therapy Money spent on expensive and unverified magnet therapy might be better spent on ground based medicines, so it is important to determine quantitative  cost in clinical practice which is claimed to be therapeutic. The Almag-01 is CE and ISO approved as a tPEMF device and is FDA listed as a training pr ogram device. Due to the curative effect of the magnetic field, the Almag-01 can impact a large area at one time. It comes with detailed instructions and doesn't need any special training. The device has LED indicators that light up when it is connected to the po...
