For many veterans, the transition back to civilian life brings a new kind of battle — one fought not on the front lines, but within. Treatment-resistant major depressive disorder (MDD) and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) affect countless veterans long after service ends. For some, traditional treatments like medication and talk therapy provide limited relief. For others, these options simply don’t work.
But there’s hope. Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is changing the game for veterans struggling with mental health. And with TRICARE now covering TMS therapy as part of its outpatient care offerings, this breakthrough treatment is more accessible than ever.
What Is TMS Therapy?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation is a safe, FDA-approved, non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate specific regions of the brain associated with mood and emotional regulation. Over time, these pulses help “reset” underactive neural pathways — leading to real, lasting improvements in symptoms of depression and PTSD.
Unlike medications, TMS doesn’t cause systemic side effects like weight gain, fatigue, or emotional numbing. There’s no sedation, no recovery time, and no disruption to your daily routine. Most sessions last under 20 minutes, and patients remain awake, alert, and able to resume normal activities right after.
Why Veterans Are Turning to TMS
Veterans are at a higher risk for developing mental health challenges, including chronic depression and PTSD. Unfortunately, a significant number of these individuals don’t respond to conventional treatments. That’s where TMS offers a powerful alternative.
At Inland Empire TMS, we’ve had the honor of helping many veterans reclaim their lives through TMS therapy. Veterans report sleeping better, thinking more clearly, and feeling more emotionally stable — often after years of suffering in silence.
“I had tried everything. Medications just dulled the pain. But TMS made me feel alive again. It gave me my life back.”
— Ankoma, U.S. Marine Corps Veteran and Inland Empire TMS Patient
