TMS
   Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, or TMS, is an innovative new depression treatment now available at Redemption Psychiatry. TMS is for those patients for whom traditional treatment is ineffective or when the side effects of depression medication are too significant to continue treatment. TMS works similarly to an MRI procedure, using a targeted, pulsed magnetic field to stimulate the brain. TMS is minimally invasive; the treatment itself lasts 37 minutes and the patient will be able to drive themselves to and from the appointment. Because there is no change in alertness or comprehension following the procedure, the patient can go to work immediately after the treatment.

   Because TMS is a minimally invasive procedure, there are far less side effects involved than traditional depression medication. It has been proven significantly effective; 1 in 2 patients improved considerably with 1 in 3 patients experiencing no depression symptoms after the treatment. For more information on this exciting new procedure, visit our TMS site at: TMS at Redemption Psychiatry

Ketamine Infusion Treatments
   Ketamine is a medicine that has commonly been used as anesthesia during surgery for children, adults, and animals since it was developed more than 50 years ago. The exciting news is that ketamine was recently found to be a valuable and highly effective treatment for depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, fibromyalgia and other pain syndromes. Research studies conducted by the National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) as well as academia and industry show that ketamine produces a quick and robust response in patients shown to be unresponsive to other standard treatments for depression. It is rapidly emerging as a potential treatment option for severe or chronic depression and major depression. Now, with Ketamine there is hope for depression sufferers who have had little to no success with more traditional treatments. Unlike the most commonly prescribed oral medications for depression that take weeks or months before the patient and doctor can even decide if the treatment is working, ketamine infusions yield results much more rapidly within hours or just days. The fact is that most patients know within hours after their first infusion whether they are responding. Additionally, the side effect profiles for commonly prescribed oral anti-depressant medications are extensive and sometimes life threatening. The most common experience among patients receiving ketamine infusions is to have no side effects between treatments. As with all medications there are no guaranteed outcomes but the percentage of patients who respond positively to this treatment is very encouraging.
   Low dose Ketamine infusion treatments are now being performed in several of our offices. This is a simple outpatient procedure conducted by our highly competent and caring Doctors and performed within a safe, comfortable environment. Following a consultation to determine the appropriateness and safety of this treatment, patients are guided each step of the process. Ketamine has shown tremendous results in helping relieve the symptoms of depression since it's antidepressant potential was first identified in the 1990's. However, since the patent on Ketamine has expired this treatment is considered “off-label” which means that providers cannot bill insurance for the treatment. Because the effects of a single infusion are short-lived, patients who show response (more than 70%) will get a series of infusions over a two to three-week period.
