Regardless of who prescribed your TMS Therapy, a trained TMS technicians should administer the actual treatments and guide you through each session. A doctor or the TMS technician should always be present to monitor the patient during treatment. The patient should be allowed to stop a treatment at any time by asking the staff member present
Speaking to the issue of who’s in the room with you during TMS, I sometimes had a friend or relative stay in the room with me during my TMS treatment if I needed support, but most of the time my TMS Coordinator supervised the session while I sat in a comfortable spa chair and watched television or listened to relaxing music.
A dear friend went with me the first time because we both thought it was going to be a big deal, and I didn’t know what to expect. When I finished that treatment I felt almost guilty I’d asked her to take a whole day to do something with me that I later realized I could have done on my own. (But I was still grateful she was willing to give up her day to be there for me!)
