Transcranial magnetic stimulation is a modern treatment technique, non-invasive, painless, no side effects, and safe for patients. This technique works by using a strong and short-term magnetic field capable of passing through the scalp and skull to directly impact the corresponding cortical areas. From there, improving the connectivity and nerve function of that brain area, providing effective treatment for related diseases.
Transcranial magnetic stimulation is currently used in the treatment of neurological diseases such as insomnia, sleep disorders, headaches, postherpetic neuralgia, tinnitus, depression, and post-stroke rehabilitation treatment. collapse. People with Alzheimer’s disease who have movement disorders due to Parkinson’s can also use this method.

Depending on the patient’s condition, physical condition and underlying diseases, doctors prescribe different transcranial magnetic stimulation treatment courses. For example, patients with insomnia or sleep disorders can be treated with transcranial magnetic fields over a 4-6 week course. 3-5 times a week, about 20-40 minutes each time. The patient does not need to be hospitalized, after the procedure can go home and live normally.
The effectiveness of transcranial magnetic stimulation usually lasts 3-6 months. Your mother can apply the transcranial magnetic stimulation technique many times without reducing the effectiveness of treatment or ignoring the effects of magnetic waves, without harming her health.
Your mother has chronic insomnia. After applying transcranial magnetic stimulation, she should be re-examined periodically every 3-6 months or when insomnia symptoms reappear. A neurologist evaluates the patient’s ability to respond to this stimulation technique. On that basis, the doctor prescribes an appropriate, individualized supplement course to bring the highest effectiveness.
