Treatment for Depression

For decades, researchers have sought safe and effective treatments for depression. Even today, there is no single depression treatment which has been proven to work for everyone. Depression is often treated with antidepressant medications; however, alternative treatments for depression are available.

Alternative Depression Therapy

Alternate depression therapies have been shown to work in people who do not receive benefit from medications or cannot tolerate the side effects caused by them. One alternative therapy for the treatment of depression is transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).

TMS of Knoxville's MagVita TMS Therapy system is an FDA-cleared solution for patients suffering from depression who have not achieved satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medications.
