FAQ
1. What is TMS therapy and how is it performed at your South Tampa location?
TMS therapy is a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic fields to stimulate nerve cells in the brain to improve symptoms of depression. At our clinic at 3333 W Kennedy Blvd #106, you will sit comfortably in a treatment chair. A magnetic coil is placed gently against your scalp, delivering brief pulses to the prefrontal cortex. You are awake and alert during the session, which typically lasts around 20 minutes, and can return to your normal activities immediately afterward.
2. How do I know if I am a candidate for TMS treatment at your clinic?
The best way to determine if you are a candidate for TMS is to schedule a consultation with Dr. Melissa Fickey at our South Tampa office. Generally, TMS is an option for adults who have struggled with Major Depressive Disorder and have not experienced satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication.
3. Do I need a referral to be seen at Embracing Life Wellness Center?
While we often work with referrals from other healthcare providers, you do not need one to schedule an initial evaluation. You can contact our office directly at (813) 662-5919 to book a consultation with Dr. Fickey at our location on W Kennedy Blvd.
4. Is TMS therapy covered by insurance at your Tampa practice?
Yes, TMS therapy is covered by most major insurance providers. Our administrative team at 3333 W Kennedy Blvd #106 will work with you to verify your insurance benefits and explain all coverage details and any out-of-pocket costs before you begin your treatment.
5. What can I expect during my first visit to your office?
Your first visit to our South Tampa clinic is a comprehensive evaluation with Dr. Fickey. This appointment is dedicated to understanding your history, discussing your symptoms, and determining if TMS or another treatment approach is the right fit for your wellness goals. It is a confidential and supportive conversation to explore your path forward.
