Neurogenesis Clinics is the first clinic in BC to offer therapeutically informed dTMS technology.
What is dTMS Treatment?
Deep transcranial magnetic stimulation (dTMS), is a noninvasive treatment process that directly stimulates brain structures associated with mental health conditions. This is done utilizing electromagnetic fields generated by patented H-coils to safely reach deeper brain structures and influence their neural activity, providing effective treatment for:
​
-
Bipolar Disorder
-
Major Depressive Disorder (MDD)
-
Anxiety
-
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD)
-
Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)
How Do I Get Started with dTMS?
1. Consultation:
Dr. Reddy will take time to understand your needs and determine if deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (dTMS) is right for you. There is a charge for the assessment. No referral is required
​
2. Diagnosis
If Dr. Reddy deems you eligible for deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, she will order some tests including bloodwork, myDNA or Genocep along with a PET scan to understand your brain function, if appropriate. The tests and treatment plans are individualized towards the patient’s specific presentation.
​
3. Recommendations
Once a working diagnosis(es) is/are established, Dr. Reddy will recommend either dTMS or dTMS plus medications. Dr. Reddy can also conduct a medication review and recommend changes, if necessary.
4. Monitored by Psychiatrist:
While you are receiving dTMS sessions, Dr. Reddy will follow you regularly, as needed, for medication management and/or to assess your progress with dTMS. You will also be followed by a Registered Nurse.
​
Dr. Reddy will collaborate with other health care providers and/or recommend other types of treatment as necessary. Our team will continue to monitor you for up to 5 months which includes dTMS and maintenance.
