Available only in St-Hubert for now.

Deep TMS at Neuroperforma – Cutting-edge technology to transform your well-being

At Neuroperforma, our mission is to make the best advancements in neuroscience accessible, providing our clients with effective, proven solutions to improve their well-being and transform their quality of life.

Among these solutions, we are proud to be one of the few private clinics in Quebec to offer Deep Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (Deep TMS), an innovative approach recognized worldwide.

Non-invasive, safe, and medication-free, Deep TMS reactivates key brain regions responsible for mood and motivation. Thanks to BrainsWay’s exclusive H-Coil technology, it reaches deeper and broader brain areas than standard rTMS, offering the potential for faster and longer-lasting results.

Standard rTMS vs. Deep TMS: What’s the difference?

Standard rTMS uses a figure-8 coil to stimulate the superficial areas of the brain, which can be effective in certain cases of depression.

Deep TMS, however, uses a patented H-Coil helmet, allowing it to reach deeper and wider brain regions for faster, longer-lasting results, especially in cases of treatment-resistant major depression.

How does Deep TMS work for depression?

When antidepressants are no longer effective, the brain can remain stuck in disrupted activity patterns: some regions are under-stimulated while others are overactive.

Deep TMS sends gentle magnetic pulses that generate electrical activity capable of:

  • Reactivating the brain’s reward circuits (the so-called “happiness zones”)
  • Inhibiting anxiety and rumination networks
  • Gradually rebalancing overall brain function

This process, performed without medication, anesthesia, or pain, promotes long-term improvement in mood and cognitive abilities.

Treating major depression in 5 days

While most clinics and hospitals offer treatment over 4 to 6 weeks, we have chosen to adopt an intensive protocol inspired by Stanford University research.

In just 5 days, you receive 50 sessions (10 per day), each lasting about 3 minutes. This approach, validated by clinical studies, has shown remission rates of up to 90% while minimizing disruptions to daily life.

The result? Our clients experience significant improvement more quickly, with fewer interruptions to their daily routine.
