EXOMIND®

A drug free treatment for depression, cleared by the FDA and delivered in short sessions. EXOMIND® uses targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate the areas of the brain involved in regulating mood.

A treatment for depression that is not a prescription.

Depression is not a matter of effort or character. It involves measurable changes in how certain networks in the brain communicate, particularly in the prefrontal cortex, which helps regulate mood, motivation, and focus. For some people, medication and therapy are enough. For others the improvement stalls, or the side effects are not worth what they give back. Transcranial magnetic stimulation has been studied in depression for well over a decade and offers another way in.

EXOMIND delivers brief, focused magnetic pulses through the scalp to stimulate nerve cells in targeted regions of the brain. There is no anesthesia, no sedation, and no medication involved. You stay awake and comfortable throughout and can drive yourself home afterward. Most patients describe a tapping sensation on the scalp that becomes easier to ignore as the session goes on. Sessions run under 30 minutes and a standard course is six visits over about three weeks.

EXOMIND is FDA cleared for the treatment of major depressive disorder. Here it is offered as part of physician directed care, which means we also look at sleep, thyroid and hormone levels, medications, and anything else that may be contributing. If you are in crisis, call or text 988 or go to the nearest emergency room.

Schedule a consultation and we will talk through whether EXOMIND is a reasonable next step for you.
