There’s no cure for bipolar depression, so treatment focuses on reducing symptoms. The usual approach to treating bipolar depression involves a combination of medications and psychotherapy. It can take some time to find the right medication and dosage, but many patients find that this treatment helps reduce the severity of their symptoms.
If you have bipolar depression and conventional treatments aren’t working, or you find that your medication has unwanted side effects, the expert team at Brain Health Center provides an alternative approach in the form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS).
TMS uses safe, noninvasive magnetic energy waves to stimulate the areas in the brain that don't fire normally in people with depression, anxiety, and other conditions.
If you’d like to find out more about TMS for bipolar depression, call Brain Health Center today or book an appointment online.
