What Is SAINT® Depression Therapy?

SAINT® (Stanford Accelerated Intelligent Neuromodulation Therapy) is an FDA‑cleared, accelerated TMS protocol designed for individuals with treatment‑resistant depression. Unlike standard TMS, which requires daily sessions over six weeks, SAINT® condenses treatment into an intensive, precisely targeted schedule delivered over several days.

BrainHealth Solutions delivers the authentic Magnus Medical SAINT® Depression Treatment, backed by clinical trial experience and expert‑level precision.

How SAINT® Depression Therapy Works

SAINT® Depression Therapy targets a specific region of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, the area most associated with mood regulation. Using advanced neuroimaging and individualized coordinates, the protocol delivers high‑dose stimulation in multiple sessions per day over a short treatment window.

This accelerated approach allows for rapid modulation of the brain circuits involved in depression.

Your SAINT® Depression
Therapy Treatment

Initial Assessment

Your care begins with a comprehensive psychiatric evaluation. We review your history, previous treatments, and current symptoms to determine whether SAINT® Depression Therapy is the right next step.

Personalized Brain Mapping

Before treatment, you undergo specialized imaging to map your unique brain connectivity. This identifies the exact stimulation target, a core reason SAINT® Depression Therapy is more precise than standard TMS.

Accelerated Treatment Sessions

SAINT® Depression Therapy is delivered in an intensive schedule: 10 sessions per day, each with 1,800 pulses of iTBS, over five consecutive days. This accelerated format allows for rapid symptom improvement while maintaining comfort and safety.

Post-Treatment Care

After completing the five‑day protocol, we provide structured follow‑up care to support long‑term stability. This may include psychiatric visits, therapy, or medication adjustments as needed.
