Anxiety

Anxiety disorders are a group of mental illnesses characterized by persistent and excessive worry and fear. These worries and fears can be triggered by a variety of situations and events, or may appear to arise out of nowhere. People with anxiety disorders may experience physical symptoms such as heart palpitations, sweating, and dizziness, as well as psychological symptoms such as restlessness, difficulty concentrating, and trouble sleeping.

Depression is a mental health condition characterized by persistent feelings of sadness, hopelessness, and a lack of interest or pleasure in nearly all activities. It goes beyond the normal fluctuations in mood and can significantly impair an individual’s daily functioning. Depression affects how a person feels, thinks, and behaves, and it can lead to various emotional and physical problems.

Treatment options for Anxiety Depression

Conventional treatment options include Medications such as Selective Serotonin Reuptake Inhibitors (SSRIs), Anxiolytics, Cognitive-Behavioural Therapy (CBT), Mindfulness-Based Therapy, or Combination Therapy along with Lifestyle adjustments and Self-care activities.

In some cases, conventional treatments do not bring relief to the sufferer, especially when the patient is treatment-resistant or non-complaint. In such cases, advanced treatment like Deep TMS therapy can bring long term relief and help patient reclaim his or her life.

Deep TMS Therapy for Anxious Depression (Anxiety Depression)

Deep TMS is US FDA cleared to safely and effectively treat the symptoms of Anxious Depression. At ANC, we use BrainsWay’s patented H1-coil technology for our treatments, which is designed to maximize electrical stimulation to the deeper regions of the brain. Deep TMS for depression works by utilizing BrainsWay’s H-coil technology to directly reach wider and deeper regions of the brain and regulate neural activity of the brain structures associated with Anxious depression – specifically the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC).

Since Deep TMS is a non-invasive treatment, it is well tolerated by most patients and does not cause any long-lasting side effects. Our anxiety treatment in Bengaluru and in other cities, using Deep TMS technology, can give you the long-term relief that you have been looking for.
