"Cognitive impairment and memory loss are very frustrating and the medications have limited benefits. Stimulating the brain with TMS increases neuronal excitation and processing speed. Patients notice feeling a little sharper — and every little bit counts."

TMS For Memory Loss FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

  • How does TMS therapy help memory loss?

    TMS therapy can improve memory in those who have lost it without negatively impacting memory or cognition in any way.


    One study conducted at Northwestern proved that TMS therapy “enhances memory replay in the brain and improves accuracy.” When memory is improved in this way, individuals have an easier time remembering details and recalling events. 


    TMS for memory loss can also be beneficial in the following ways:

    • Reduces memory loss in those who struggle with depression
    • Helps to improve overall mental acuity
    • Improves symptoms in those with Alzheimer’s Disease
    • Enhances focus and perception, allowing for memories to be easily recalled
    • Offers fast relief from memory loss

  • How do I get started with TMS for memory loss treatments?

    If you are considering TMS for memory loss, the first step you can take is to meet with a TMS provider face to face. Talk with them about your symptoms and your treatment goals, and they can help you determine if TMS therapy is right for you. 


    If you are insured, you may obtain a referral to a TMS provider through your primary care provider or make an appointment on your own, depending on what type of insurance plan you have. 


    From there, you can expect to begin TMS for memory loss treatments with a cognitive evaluation and a motor threshold test, which allows the provider to determine the level of magnetic stimulation to provide in your sessions. TMS sessions typically go on for 4-6 weeks. It is important to go to each and every TMS therapy session in order to realize the benefits of the treatment.

  • What are the risk factors for TMS for memory loss?

    When it comes to TMS therapy for memory loss, any potential risk factors that may develop are minor. 


    For example, it is common for individuals who have just participated in a TMS therapy session to experience an itchy or tingly scalp or face after the treatment has been completed. It is also possible for a patient to develop a headache after treatment. However, those headaches generally taper off quickly. 


    Generally speaking, these risk factors can occur but typically do not, as TMS therapy is a safe, non-invasive, painless treatment.
