Break Free from OCD with Advanced Deep TMS Therapy in Mumbai
Are You Tired of OCD Controlling Your Life?
Do you find yourself stuck in endless loops of intrusive thoughts and repetitive actions? Have medications and therapy not worked as well as you hoped?
You’re not alone.
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) affects millions worldwide and often feels like an unbreakable cycle. If medications or therapy haven’t brought enough relief, there’s good news:
At Jaslok Hospital’s Restorative & Regenerative Medicine Department, we offer Deep TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) an FDA-cleared, non-invasive treatment for OCD that targets the root of the problem in the brain.
What Is Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD)?
OCD affects around 2-3% of the global population and can present in different forms:
Obsessions: unwanted thoughts about contamination, harm, symmetry, or moral doubts.
Compulsions: repetitive behaviors like cleaning, checking, or mental rituals.
Symptoms often start in adolescence or early adulthood and may worsen over time if untreated.
Common signs include:
- Repeated checking, cleaning, or counting
- Fear of germs, contamination, or harm
- Feeling “stuck” in rituals, even when you know they’re excessive
- Difficulty focusing on work, relationships, or daily tasks
If this sounds familiar, Deep TMS could be the solution you’ve been searching for.

Understanding the Root Causes of OCD
Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is not just about repetitive behaviors or intrusive thoughts; it’s a complex neurological condition with multiple contributing factors. Knowing what fuels OCD helps create more precise and lasting treatment plans.
Possible Causes and Risk Factors of OCD
- Genetic Predisposition: OCD tends to run in families, pointing to a strong hereditary component.
- Environmental Factors: Infections, early life stress, or trauma can increase OCD risk.
- Temperament: Individuals with high anxiety sensitivity or perfectionist traits are more prone.
- Critical Life Events: Major transitions, losses, or highly stressful periods can trigger onset.
Why Traditional OCD Treatments Often Fall Short
Many people start with SSRIs or Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT). And while these help some, relapse and treatment resistance are common.
- Medications can take weeks to work
- CBT requires long-term engagement
- Many still experience intrusive thoughts or compulsive behaviors even after both
That’s why more patients and psychiatrists are turning to Deep TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) especially when conventional routes fail.
What is Deep TMS and How It Treats OCD
Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS) is the first non-invasive, FDA-cleared device to treat Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder. It targets brain regions implicated in OCD: the medial prefrontal cortex and anterior cingulate cortex.
How It Works
Deep TMS sends magnetic pulses into deeper neural circuits involved in obsessive thinking and compulsive behavior. These areas are overactive in people with OCD, and modulating them can restore healthier cognitive patterns.
Unlike ECT (electroconvulsive therapy), Deep TMS involves:
- No electrical shocks
- No anesthesia
- No hospital stay
- Safe for patients aged 14 and up
Sessions are done in a comfortable outpatient setting, take about 20 minutes, and don’t require downtime.
Real Results: Deep TMS for OCD Backed by Science
A major multicenter study published in the American Journal of Psychiatry (2019) showed significant symptom improvement using Deep TMS on patients with OCD.
Key Clinical Outcomes:
- 38.1% of patients achieved a remission (compared to 11.1% in the placebo group)
- 54.8% reported reduction in 50% of symptom relief (versus 26.7% with sham stimulation)
- Results were measured using the Yale-Brown Obsessive-Compulsive Scale (Y-BOCS) a gold-standard OCD severity scale
These findings confirm that Deep TMS is a clinically proven, drug-free OCD treatment, especially for those with treatment-resistant OCD.

Monitoring Progress During OCD Treatment
Deep TMS (dTMS) therapy for Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a gradual process. While some patients may notice improvements early on, it often requires several weeks of consistent treatment for meaningful symptom relief to occur.
It’s essential to maintain close communication with your doctor and care team throughout your treatment journey. If you or your family notice any behavioral changes such as increased OCD symptoms, irritability, or thoughts of self-harm then notify the treatment administrator immediately.
Our team will carefully monitor your response to dTMS therapy and determine if any adjustments are needed. If necessary, your doctor may recommend discontinuing dTMS and exploring alternative treatment options to ensure your safety and progress.
Your well-being is our priority. Regular assessments and feedback enable us to provide a treatment plan tailored to your specific needs.
FAQ's
What is OCD?
OCD is a mental health condition where a person experiences repeated unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and feels the urge to perform certain actions (compulsions) to ease their anxiety.
Is Deep TMS painful?
No. You may feel light tapping on your head, but it’s painless and doesn’t require sedation.
Is Deep TMS like shock therapy?
No. It uses magnetic fields and not electric shocks which stimulate the brain.
Are there any restrictions (metal implants, piercing)?
Yes, people with metal implants in the head or neck region should consult their doctor. Otherwise, piercings can be removed before sessions.
What’s the minimum age for treatment?
Patients aged 14 years and above are eligible.
Will I need to take medications or anesthesia?
No medications or anesthesia are needed for Deep TMS.
Is hospitalization required?
Not at all. It’s an OPD-based procedure, and you can return to normal activities right after.
I have undergone rTMS therapy without much benefit, how will dTMS help me?
Patients who have not responded or partially responded can still respond to dTMS. Due to its inherent technology, dTMS has better chances of response.
