Treatment Overview

Redefining Neurological Recovery

Traditional neurological treatments often rely heavily on systemic medications that can cause widespread side effects. For many patients dealing with the aftermath of a stroke, traumatic brain injuries, or movement disorders, progress can plateau, leaving them searching for alternative solutions.

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is emerging as a groundbreaking intervention in neurology. By delivering highly focused magnetic pulses to specific motor and cognitive centers of the brain, TMS directly stimulates neural pathways, encouraging the brain's natural ability to rewire and heal itself (neuroplasticity).

Dr. Ritesh Amin utilizes cutting-edge TMS protocols to target specialized neurological conditions. This non-invasive, outpatient therapy offers new hope for patients seeking to regain motor function, reduce neuro-inflammation, and manage chronic neurological symptoms.

I've been dealing with depression and PTSD for years and Dr. Amin's TMS Therapy has honestly saved my life. I'm someone who does not respond well to depression medication, so TMS was a godsend for me. I went from crying for no reason almost every day to feeling more stable and even optimistic. Dr. Amin is really invested in my mental health and Charlie, the TMS technician, is very helpful in making the treatments go by quickly and swiftly. I don't even want to imagine what my life would have been like without these treatments these past few years.

Amazing experience with Dr. Amin. He helped me get out of my anxiety in just 2 months. He is very responsive, follows up personally, and is always available when you need to talk. Highly recommended! I had a wonderful experience with Nurse Melissa. She genuinely cares about her patients, and it shows in how she handles them. Thank You Dr Amin.

I've been experiencing night terrors for a few years. I called Dr Amin immediately and he called me back right away. He told me he could help me. He came up with a medical plan with his diagnosis and that's what we're doing now. Dr. Amin is not aggressive and started very cautious with treatment because of my family history. Dr. Amin calls me to follow up on how I'm feeling. I highly recommend his practice. They answer in a timely manner. Everyone is very nice.

Dr. Amin saved me from my horrible OCD. Thank god for him. I originally went to him for a second opinion. I decided to take a leap of faith and start TMS after I had a bad OCD episode. It was rough in the beginning when I first started TMS but I persevered my way through and I'm so glad I did. I'm just about half way through and I see so many benefits already. I have my life back. I feel such relief — I can rationalize my thoughts and emotions so much better now. Overall I'm a better person. Thank you x1000 Dr. Amin!!!

★★★★★

Before becoming a patient of Dr. Amin, I was experiencing persistent cognitive fog, chronic depression, and generalized anxiety that significantly impacted my ability to function day to day. Since implementing Dr. Amin's comprehensive recommendations, my cognitive clarity has returned, my mood has stabilized, and I now have the energy and confidence to manage daily tasks and engage in social environments without fear. Dr. Amin's thoughtful and integrative approach to treatment has been transformative. His attention to detail and commitment to addressing root causes — rather than just symptoms — has helped me reclaim both my functionality and quality of life. I am truly grateful for the care I've received.

I have been a patient with NJ Healthy Minds for the past couple of years, and choosing them has been one of the best decisions I've made for myself. Everyone I've encountered has been kind, compassionate, supportive, and consistent. The passion and care they show truly reflect their purpose and the positive impact they make in people's lives every day. I am not the same person I was when I first came to them. Their support has made a tremendous difference in my life, and for that I am deeply grateful. Dr Amin & staff, you rock.

Dr Amin is a very caring doctor. He helped me regain my peace via TMS therapy. He took whatever time was required to explain in detail what to expect. Unlike most in his field, he returns calls with urgency. I love having him as my doctor.

Got Questions?

Frequently Asked Questions

Find quick answers to some of the most common questions our patients ask about this treatment.

What neurological conditions can TMS treat?

While initially approved for depression, TMS is utilized off-label and in cutting-edge clinical protocols for conditions such as Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), Stroke Recovery, Functional Neurological Disorders (FND), and certain movement disorders. Dr. Amin conducts a thorough evaluation to determine if TMS is appropriate for your specific neurological profile.

Does TMS replace my physical therapy?

No, TMS works best as an augmentative therapy. By "priming" the brain with magnetic stimulation, patients often find they get much better results and faster progress from their concurrent physical, occupational, or speech therapies.

Is neuro-TMS safe after a stroke?

Yes, TMS has been extensively studied for stroke recovery, particularly for motor weakness and aphasia. It is considered safe and well-tolerated, though a full medical clearance is required to ensure there are no contraindications (like certain implanted metallic devices in the head).

How many sessions are required for neurological recovery?

Neurological protocols vary significantly depending on the condition being treated. While standard psychiatric protocols are usually 36 sessions, neurological recovery protocols are highly individualized. Dr. Amin will design a custom treatment schedule during your consultation.

Can TMS reverse neurological damage?

While TMS does not physically regrow dead tissue, it forcefully stimulates \"neuroplasticity\"—encouraging healthy, surviving brain cells to form new connections and take over the functions of the damaged areas.

How do I get started with neurological TMS?

The first step is a comprehensive neurological and psychiatric evaluation with Dr. Amin. He will review your medical records, imaging, and symptoms to design a customized neuromodulation protocol for your specific condition.
