What is OCD dTMS?

OCD deep TMS is a treatment that delivers deep magnetic stimulation to the frontal structures and networks of the brain, targeting previously unreachable areas with a H7 coil on a BrainsWay Machine. BrainsWay OCD is the only TMS treatment currently cleared by the FDA to treat OCD and has shown to be effective in multiple trials. BrainsWay’s OCD can significantly improve OCD symptoms by targeting the areas associated with OCD and regulating the neurons that are over firing with obsessive thoughts. In order to make the treatment effective, the OCD symptoms are provoked right before starting the protocol to highlight the parts of the brain that need to be regulated. Most patients notice an improvement by the 4th week and require more effort to provoke their OCD symptoms. OCD dTMS can be done in 29 sessions everyday for just 6 weeks. dTMS for OCD is not covered by insurance. A round of 29 treatments costs $10,000.

BrainsWay OCD dTMS can significantly improve OCD symptoms.

Listen to real patients tell their stories about their OCD & how Deep TMS Therapy can help

BrainsWay OCD therapy can significantly improve OCD symptoms, as was demonstrated in the positive results of the BrainsWay’s Deep TMS study, the only multicenter trial in OCD patients ever conducted. The multicenter study demonstrated that after six weeks of treatment, there was a statistically significant improvement in the primary endpoint results for the active treatment group when compared to sham (p=0.0127).

The improvement was maintained one month after the end of treatment at week 10. The primary outcome measure of this study was the OCD Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS), the gold standard measure of OCD symptom severity. Importantly, 38.1% of patients in the active group achieved a response of more than 30% reduction in symptom severity as measured by Y-BOCS, compared with just 11.1% in the sham group (p=0.0033). Moreover, 54.8% of patients in the active group achieved a partial response of more than 20% reduction in symptom severity versus just 26.7% in the sham group (p=0.0076).
