Smoking Cessation TMS is a new and innovative treatment for cigarette smoking addiction recently approved by the FDA. TMS therapy stimulates areas of the brain associated with addiction, the bilateral insula and prefrontal cortex, to reduce tobacco cravings and increase impulse control. BrainsWay has uniquely designed a magnetic coil to fit in a padded helmet to deliver electromagnetic waves at a deeper and broader rate for smoking cessation, known as the H4 helmet. The H4 helmet is the only coil approved by the FDA to treat smoking addiction. Smoking Cessation TMS is safe and effective, inducing minimal side effects such as headaches.
In a double-blind, multi-center study of 262 participants, those who received TMS treatment showed significant improvement in the rate of quitting, having less cravings, and overall smoking less cigarettes per week. About 28% of participants, with a long history of smoking and failing multiple attempts, maintained an abstinence from smoking cigarettes for 4 weeks. The number of cigarettes smoked per week were reduced by about 75% at week 6. To learn more click here.
