If you or someone you know is suffering from depression or OCD, you may have heard about TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation). This safe treatment is FDA approved to treat depression and/or OCD, without side effects such as weight gain, loss of sleep, lessened libido or fogged thinking.
Brainsway Deep TMS differs from standard TMS in that the magnetic pulse is able to reach deeper into the brain. These deeper (limbic) areas of the brain impact mood regulation and motivation, which are commonly negatively affected in patients who are depressed.
Brainsway Deep TMS has been shown to be more effective than standard TMS for treating major depression. Brainsway is also the only FDA cleared TMS device to treat OCD.
TMS Center of Colorado was the first in the region and is one of the only centers in Colorado using the Brainsway Deep TMS device.
I’ve had a great experience at TMS Center of Colorado. The technicians are very skilled at what they do and also sensitive and kind. They were willing to respond to my concerns and offer reassurance and encouragement. They always tried to make me physically comfortable. Dr. Wirecki checked in with me often, stayed for part of my sessions, and offered several private conversations.”

After years of trial and error with various medications and therapies, I knew it was time to step out and try something new. Although skeptical at first, due to continuous failure with other treatments, I could not be more grateful now for the improvements TMS has made in my life. I struggled with an unbearable amount of anxiety, depression, and mood swings for most of my adult life, but TMS has gradually alleviated all of these. With just a few months of treatment, I have begun to find my happiness and health again. Thank you so much for that.”

I feel like I have become a much stronger person through TMS. I feel stronger emotionally and feel like I can handle stress much better. Before TMS, I was falling apart over every little thing. Now I feel I can handle whatever comes my way, whatever challenges I must face. The staff at the TMS Center are professional and attentive and very caring. They have helped to make this an extremely positive experience.”

I cannot think of much in the way of improving the experience. Found it to be very friendly, personable, and professional. I found everyone here very enjoyable and genuinely interested and concerned in my progress and general well-being. It was a very positive experience and I found the treatment itself to be quite helpful in improving my day to day life.”

Seven months ago I was so depressed I wasn’t able to function. After the six weeks of TMS Therapy I was back to work; I was feeling great; I was enjoying my kids again and I had my life back.”

I have not felt this good since I was in high school. I can find joy in the simple things in life and am no longer afraid to get out of bed in the morning. I am hopeful about my future.”
– Laurie (Age 48)
I had been opposed to TMS initially due to an irrational fear of it impacting my cognitive capacity, but I had become so hopeless from my depression that I needed to try everything available, notwithstanding my fears. I am so grateful that I did! TMS has helped my brain and my depression. What is most noticeable is that my brain has stopped its endless soundtracks of negative, self-defeating thoughts. Thank you for giving me more peace. It was a joy working with everyone at the center, and I will miss it.”

All of the technicians and also Dr. Wirecki have all been very professional, concerned, and you can tell they all care. My experience was overall positive and I would recommend this center to anyone as an alternative option choice for [major depressive disorder] treatment.”

When I first started TMS, life was not worth living. I had stopped doing all the things I loved, and experienced no joy from things that should have been fun. It truly is the little things in life: getting up in the morning instead of afternoon, reading magazines again, washing my face at night, cooking a meal, taking the dog for a walk, and looking forward to the next day with a hint of optimism. Thank you!”

I came to TMS Center of Colorado for severe depression. Medications and therapy did not work for me for over five years. I am now, after completing dTMS, in a much better place than where I started. I got significantly better results with dTMS than I ever did with medication.”
– Richard (Age 43)
I was skeptical at first. I gradually got back to feeling human. At Christmas, my family commented it was the best in 20 years. At 7 treatments left, my mother died. I handled it real good and finished my treatment after 3 weeks off. I would recommend TMS for depression to get better.”

I am very pleased and happy with the TMS Center of Colorado. I feel the Center and staff were very professional, caring, and very willing to educate me on the treatments as I continued. When I came to the TMS Center of Colorado, I was so very depressed. I was in a deep dark place, so alone in my feelings and l had fearful feelings. What a success! I feel lifted of the burden. The peace of mind is wonderful. For all the poor people who suffer this awful disease, I hope you have the chance to get TMS treatment. I am very pleased. The staff and Dr. Wirecki are wonderful, professional, and they care about you!”
