Frequently Asked Questions:

​

1. What is NeuroStar TMS? Neurostar is a safe, effective, non-drug depression treatment that used focused magnetic pulses, similar in strength to an MRI, to revitalize connections in an area of the brain involved in regulating your mood. When these connections are reawakened, many people experience measurable relief from their depression.

​

2. Does it work? In a study of "real-world" outcomes (meaning actual NeuroStar patients) 83% of people who completed the full NeuroStar treatment cycle experienced a measurable decrease in the severity of their depression, and 62% of those completing treatment saw full remission-meaning their depression "went away"

​

3. Does it hurt? While there may be some minor discomfort at the treatment site (where the device touches your head), it generally subsides within the first week of treatment. There is no sedation, or impact on your alertness.. You can read, watch TV, or talk with your treatment coordinator during your session, and you can drive home immediately after treatment. 

​

4. Does insurance cover it? Yes! over 300 million people have insurance plans that cover NeuroStar including plans specific to New Mexico including Medicaid, Medicare, and Tricare. Conditions and coverage can vary by insurance company, and our NueroStar team lead will help you to determine your benefits and coverage. We also offer cash-pay inner office financing for those who do not have coverage. 

​

5. Who is NeuroStar for? NeuroStar is FDA-cleared for adults with Major Depressive Disorder who have not found relief from antidepressant medications. Our NeuroStar leader will walk you through the full qualifications for treatment during your initial consult.
