BALTIMORE, Feb. 18, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Greenbrook TMS NeuroHealth Centers, a leading provider of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in the United States, is now offering BrainsWay's Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS) therapy for patients with obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD). The company has already been treating patients with major depressive disorder (MDD) using Deep TMS at their facilities across the country.

"We are eager to begin utilizing BrainsWay's Deep TMS helmet to treat those living with OCD in the Baltimore and Washington, D.C. metro areas," said Dr. Misty Borst, medical director at Greenbrook TMS NeuroHealth Centers. "Many patients suffering from OCD find that traditional medication therapy does not sufficiently reduce their symptoms. Deep TMS provides a safe and effective option for treating OCD, and we are pleased to be able to offer this treatment to our patients in these regions."

BrainsWay's Deep TMS administers magnetic waves through a cushioned helmet to target deep structures of the brain that impact a patients' OCD symptoms. The treatment is both medication-free and noninvasive, and patients can return to normal activities, such as driving, immediately following the session. Because Deep TMS penetrates deeper and broader in the brain than traditional TMS, it enables stimulation of the deep brain structures that are involved in mental health illnesses. BrainsWay has been treating depression with Deep TMS for more than 10 years and received FDA clearance to target OCD in 2018.

Greenbrook TMS NeuroHealth Centers is a leading provider of TMS treatment for patients across the United States who are living with depression, OCD and other mental illnesses. Greenbrook provides Deep TMS as a stand-alone treatment or with medication and therapy to best fit each patient's unique needs.
