Explaining transcranial magnetic stimulation

Transcranial magnetic stimulation, or TMS, is a non-invasive treatment for depression that uses gentle pulses of magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain. It works differently than standard antidepressant medications, like serotonin reuptake inhibitors, or SSRIs, but without their undesirable side effects such as weight changes and sexual dysfunction.
