Claim:
1. A transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) device for the treatment of neurological disorders, the TMS device including: at least one capacitor; a charging circuit to initiate the charging of the at least one capacitor placed within the TMS device in order to store electrical energy within the at least one capacitor; a magnetic coil having an inner section and an outer section, the magnetic coil having at least two turns of wire designed to deliver a magnetic pulse into the human body when the capacitor is discharged through the magnetic coil and, a magnetic custom bleed resistor within the TMS device includes at least one bleed resistor element formed from resistor wire wound on a core, said bleed resistor oriented within the TMS device to minimize forces applied to the bleed resistor by a magnetic pulse delivered by the TMS device, wherein said resistor wire is substantially aligned with magnetic field lines generated by said magnetic pulse.
