What is Accelerated TMS:
- Unlike Standard (Deep) TMS, BrainsWay SWIFT™ Accelerated (Deep) TMS compresses the Acute treatment phase into just 6 days!
- Instead of visiting the clinic for 36 (20-minute long) once-daily treatments over 6-9 weeks, patients complete 5 (10-minute long) rapid TMS sessions per day for 6 days.
- We recommend patients complete the Continuation phase of two brief treatments, once a week, for four weeks to lock in the improvements.
- FDA-cleared SWIFT™ Accelerated TMS is a
more effective and time-efficient alternative to traditional TMS - without compromising safety or the quality of care.

Mental Health Care That Works With Your Insurance
TMS and Spravato (esketamine nasal spray) are covered by most major health insurance plans when criteria are met. For patients who are out-of-network or who want accelerated TMS treatment, third-party financing may be available.
A 5-minute screening tells you if TMS or Spravato may be a fit, verifies your insurance coverage, and connects you with our Patient Care Team to schedule your first appointment.

Accelerated TMS Frequently Asked Questions
Q. What is the Difference Between Standard Deep TMS and Swift Accelerated Deep TMS?
A: The treatment itself is identical - both use the same magnetic technology developed by BrainsWay and target the same brain regions. The only difference is scheduling.
Standard TMS delivers one session per day, while SWIFT Accelerated TMS provides multiple sessions daily. Think of it like choosing between a semester-long course or an intensive workshop - the material covered is the same, just on a different timeline.
Q. What is the out-of-pocket cost for Accelerated TMS?
A: Accelerated TMS is typically not covered by insurance at this time, as most insurers only reimburse the standard once-daily protocol.
Out-of-pocket costs are $7,500 for the full course, though pricing varies by provider and protocol.
We understand this is a significant investment and are happy to discuss payment plans or financing options. Many patients find the rapid relief and reduced time commitment worth the cost.
Q. I've Heard of One Day Accelerated TMS - How is That Different?
A: One Day TMS takes acceleration to the maximum by delivering the entire treatment course in a single day – 20 sessions with 30-minute rest periods. This is still an investigational protocol.
Early results look promising, but formal scientific analysis of a large number of participants has not yet been published.
Q. Can I start with Accelerated TMS if I’ve never done TMS before?
A: Yes, depending on your evaluation, treatment history, and safety considerations. Some patients start with accelerated treatment, while others are better candidates for Standard Deep TMS. We can navigate this together.
Q. Does TMS hurt?
A: Most patients describe TMS as painless, though you may feel a light tapping sensation on your scalp during treatment. Some people experience mild scalp discomfort or a slight headache during the first few sessions as your body adjusts, but this typically subsides quickly.
The sensation is often compared to a gentle woodpecker tapping - more unusual than uncomfortable.
