Transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) paired with ketamine: inside a clinic offering a frontier treatment

Welcome back to Business Trip, a podcast about psychedelic startups! 🍄

In this episode of Business Trip, we interview one of the first clinics to offer a protocol that includes TMS (transcranial magnetic stimulation) and ketamine infusion.

TMS is a non-invasive procedure that sends electric currents to specific regions in the brain, including areas linked to depression. It's FDA approved and has been gaining adoption as clinical studies demonstrate safety and efficacy in treating mood disorders.

So why the combination? TMS takes a local approach while ketamine stimulates global brain communication, according to Scenic City Neurotherapy founder Charles Miller. There's little data about the combination of TMS with ketamine, making this conversation quite interesting as Miller shares the protocol, science, costs, and treatment outcomes.

Listen now

In this episode, we discuss:

  • How TMS works

  • Why TMS may pair well with ketamine to treat mood disorders health

  • The protocol, science, costs, and patient outcomes
