At Clinica Cerem, we are committed to providing our patients with the most advanced medical technology to support their journey toward a life free from substances. As part of our multidisciplinary approach, we now offer Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)—known as EMT—a revolutionary, non-invasive neuromodulation technique designed to treat addiction and co-occurring mental health disorders.
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS): A New Frontier in Addiction Recovery
Why TMS for Addiction Rehab?
Addiction often disrupts the brain’s natural reward and impulse control circuits. TMS therapy addresses this at the source by using precise magnetic fields to create a targeted electrical field that stimulates specific neurons.
Normalize Brain Function
It helps “reset” neural pathways to improve communication between brain circuits.
Reduce Pharmacological Load
By improving symptoms naturally, patients can often reduce their reliance on heavy psychiatric medications.
High Success Rate
Clinical studies show that over 70% of patients experience significant and noticeable improvements in their symptoms.
Non-Invasive and Safe
Unlike other treatments, TMS requires no surgery, no anesthesia, and no sedation. It is entirely painless and has no serious side effects.
Integrated Care for Dual Diagnosis
At Cerem, we understand that addiction rarely exists in isolation. Our TMS protocols are effective for treating the “Dual Diagnosis” conditions we specialize in, including:
Substance Use
Alcoholism, Cocaine, Methamphetamine, and Opioid addiction.
Mental Health
Depression, Anxiety, Chronic Stress, and OCD (TOC)
Behavioral Health
Eating Disorders (Anorexia/Bulimia) and Insomnia.
How TMS Supports Your Sobriety
Craving Reduction
By stimulating specific brain zones with magnetic pulses, TMS helps normalize the nervous system’s function.
Non-Invasive Safety
This treatment requires no surgery, no anesthesia, and no sedation
No Cognitive Side Effects
Unlike some pharmaceutical approaches, it does not produce memory loss or seizures.
Proven Efficacy
Clinical studies show that over 70% of patients experience significant improvement in their recovery journey
What to Expect in Our Clinic
Our TMS sessions are designed to be comfortable and fit seamlessly into your residential or outpatient recovery plan:
Comfortable Environment
You will remain seated in a relaxed environment while our specialized NeuroPulse coil is applied.
Short Sessions
Each session lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, allowing you to return to your daily therapy sessions immediately.
Personalized Protocol
While every case is unique, an average treatment involves 20 to 30 daily sessions for optimal results.
Your Treatment Experience
During a session, you will remain comfortably seated while a specialized coil transmits micro-pulses to the brain. Each session lasts between 30 to 60 minutes, and for optimal results, we typically recommend a protocol of 20 to 30 consecutive daily sessions
Scientific Backing
TMS is a globally recognized tool approved by the FDA and supported by institutions like the Paris Brain Institute. You can explore extensive research on its effectiveness for addiction on PubMed

A Coadjutant for Long-Term Sobriety
It is important to note that while TMS is a powerful tool, it is most effective when used as a coadjutant to our medical and psychological programs.
-
Yes: Improves symptoms, provides clear results, and supports medical treatment.
-
