DEVICE

Repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation

rTMS is a non-invasive procedure, in which the administration of a transient magnetic field induces electrical currents in specific, targeted brain regions. The intervention will be administered in 20 sessions lasting 50 minutes each over the course of 2-6 weeks. Up to two sessions may be scheduled per day with a one-hour interval in-between.

DEVICE

Sham

Subjects will still attend treatment sessions as outlined in the rTMS intervention. However, the device will not deliver any stimulation to the subject.
