Brain Mapping (PrTMS)

Brain Mapping

(prTMS)


At Karma TMS, we are firm believers in the importance of regularly monitoring your brain activity to track progress image and tailor personalized treatments. To achieve this, we employ a technique called brain mapping.

Benefits of Brain Mapping

• Serves as a diagnostic tool for individuals dealing with brain-related conditions.

• Enables us to optimize your brain health by gaining insights into your brain's functioning and identifying sources of dysregulation.

• Detects subtle changes in brain-wave patterns allowing us to pinpoint areas of the brain that may be under-active, characterized by excessively slow brain waves impairing function, or overstimulated, exhibiting an excess of fast brain waves. Both scenarios can lead to disruptions and impairments in brain function.

• Enables us to assess the proper functioning of brain networks responsible for regulating mood, behavior, attention, sleep, and learning.

• Analyzes brain waves, identifying opportunities to enhance communication between different brain regions.

• Through visual representations of each brain lobe and specific brain waves (beta, alpha, theta, and delta), we gain valuable insights into cortical arousal, motor functions, memory encoding and retrieval, and deep sleep.

• These insights inform the creation of a personalized TMS protocol called PrTMS, applying our understanding of brain activity to therapeutic treatments.

How does brain mapping work?

Brain mapping is a non-invasive and painless process that involves placing sensors on the surface of your head to record underlying brain waves. Similar to a thermometer that measures temperature without affecting it, brain mapping records your brain's electrical activity for analysis without causing any disturbance. This helps us identify dysregulated brain areas that require attention and determine if your brain activity falls within the normal range or displays dysregulation.

How is a brain map used in treatment?

A brain map serves as a unique fingerprint of your brain, allowing us to personalize treatment based on the specific dysregulation linked to your symptoms. For instance, if your attention network shows abnormalities causing problems with concentration on uninteresting tasks, we target treatment to address the disrupted connections in that network. We may also focus on improving connections between the attentional network and other networks crucial for optimal brain functioning and concentration.

How does brain map-guided treatment improve quality of life?

Brain map-guided treatment enables you to strengthen connections within and between brain regions, enhancing the efficiency and speed of information processing. This improvement can lead to better emotional regulation, increased motivation, and improved sleep quality. Unlike medications that may not target specific brain areas, our guided brain mapping approach helps address neurological issues more effectively, resulting in a harmonious brain function and an enhanced quality of life.

At Karma TMS, we use scientific evidence to develop individualized treatment protocols based on your brain map, helping you achieve a better life experience by addressing neurological challenges and promoting self-regulation.

What is PrTMS?

Personalized repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (PrTMS®) is TMS — but with a smarter, more sophisticated approach. Unlike conventional TMS that is one-size-fits-all, PrTMS® intricately customizes the TMS therapy delivered to each patient – which may help patients achieve optimal results. PrTMS® uses brainwave analysis to measure brain activity and develop a customized therapy protocol for each patient’s unique brain mapping that is verified and approved by a qualified PrTMS® provider – this helps ensure patients receive optimized treatment.

How does PrTMS work?

PrTMS involves a 3-step process that includes evaluation of your brain function, creation of a personalized and provider-reviewed and verified treatment plan, and application of the TMS therapy using the treatment plan.

What's unique about PrTMS?

With conventional TMS therapy, the same therapy is delivered to every patient — regardless of their condition, circumstance, or degree of brainwave frequency disturbance.
