TMS Therapy for Brain Treatment
Brain function directly impacts the way you think, feel, and behave. When your brain isn’t functioning optimally, nearly any aspect of your cognitive abilities can be impacted. Decision-making skills, problem-solving abilities, and physical performance are just a few of the many functions that demand proper efficiency.

What is Brain Treatment?
Dr. Jennifer Armstrong understands how poor brain function can reduce your quality of life. At her Orange County office, Dr. Armstrong provides FDA-approved transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) to enhance brain function without surgery, medication, or injections.
What are the Benefits of Brain Treatment?
Brain treatment at ArmstrongMD offers many benefits, including:
- Non-invasive treatment
- No downtime
- Fast 30 to 60-minute treatments
- Improves memory, concentration, and brain fog
- Decreases dependence on pharmacological drugs
- Treats PTSD, ADHD, depression, and more
How Does Brain Treatment Work?
TMS delivers short pulses of electromagnetic energy into the brain, stimulating the nerve cells associated with treatment-resistant depression and other mental health disorders. The goal of TMS is to disrupt the firing pattern of certain neurons to reset dysfunctional processes in the brain. By altering unhelpful brain patterns, TMS can improve the symptoms of many different conditions and enhance your mental, emotional, and physical capabilities.
What Treatments Can Brain Treatment Improve?
TMS has been shown to treat:
Major depressive disorder
TMS is currently FDA-approved to minimize the symptoms of treatment-resistant depression. If you’ve already tried traditional antidepressant medications, therapy, and other coping strategies with little to no success, ask Dr. Armstrong if TMS is right for you.
Sleep Disorders
Studies show that poor sleep quality can have a negative influence on your physical and mental health. Disrupted intracortical excitability may be to blame for conditions such as insomnia, according to new research. By inhibiting this process, TMS can help calm the brain and promote restful sleep.
COVID Brain Fog
Approximately 40% of individuals with COVID report long-term side effects, most notably brain fog and cognitive impairment. New studies show that TMS therapy may help stimulate blood flow to address COVID brain fog and vision problems that can result from the infection.
Concussions
TMS may be an effective treatment for post-concussive headaches and depression. If you’re experiencing the negative side effects of a concussion, talk to Dr. Armstrong about TMS.
Perimenopause (Mommy Brain)
Among the many challenges of perimenopause, or “mommy brain,” is depression. TMS has been shown to relieve the symptoms of depression related to perimenopause. Whether you experience fatigue, low libido, or brain fog, TMS can help you take back control of your life.
Autism & ADHD
Disrupted brain activity plays an important role in the development of mental health disorders, like autism and ADHD. By restoring neuronal activity and leveling brainwaves, TMS can help minimize many of the symptoms of autism and ADHD. Improving concentration, minimizing anxiety, and reducing impulsivity are just a few ways TMS can help treat autism and ADHD.
Memory Problems
Poor sleep quality can diminish your brain health and increase your risk of brain fog, dementia, and difficulty concentrating. If you frequently experience sleep disturbances, you may have trouble retaining new information. TMS improves the neuronal activity in your brain to restore healthy cognitive function and prevent memory loss.
What Can I Expect During Brain Treatment?
Your TMS brain treatment will be performed by Dr. Armstrong at our state-of-the-art facility in Newport Beach. Dr. Armstrong is committed to making your treatment as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. You start by sitting in a comfortable chair with earplugs to minimize the sound of the magnetic impulses. Next, Dr. Armstrong measures your head to determine the best area to place the machine’s magnetic coil. Finally, she starts the device, which releases magnetic impulses into your brain. The entire treatment takes about 30-60 minutes, during which time you can relax. Depending on your personalized treatment plan, Dr. Armstrong may recommend returning for treatment about 5 days a week for 4-6 weeks.
What Can I Expect After Brain Treatment?
Brain treatment is completely non-invasive and requires no anesthesia or downtime. You can drive yourself home immediately after the procedure and resume your normal activities right away. Headaches, lightheadedness, and mild scalp pain are common side effects of TMS that should subside quickly.
How Much Do Brain Treatment Cost?
