TMS Therapy for Depression in Scottsdale, AZ

FDA-approved NeuroStar® Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) delivered within comprehensive psychiatric care.

What Is TMS Therapy?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is a non-invasive, FDA-approved treatment for major depressive disorder, particularly when symptoms have not improved with antidepressant medications.

​

TMS uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate areas of the brain involved in mood regulation — without systemic medication side effects or sedation.

​

At Sonoran Sun Wellness, TMS is provided as part of integrated psychiatric care, ensuring appropriate screening, education, and coordination.

​
