Tired of sleepless nights and worried about more medication? Have you tried many sleep aids only to feel groggy or still tired? If insomnia has drained your energy and focus you’re looking for a real solution. There is hope available besides over-the-counter remedies.
The Insomnia Struggle: When You’ve Tried Everything
Chronic insomnia can leave you feeling completely drained, easily annoyed, and unable to cope during the day. You might have tried sleeping pills, but maybe you got groggy, became dependent, or didn’t feel any better. Your doctor might say it’s just stress or suggest another medication. But nothing really brings back the restful sleep you need. Lots of people experience this.
The thing is, insomnia isn’t often caused by a simple imbalance of chemicals that pills can fix. Your sleep problems could be due to something else entirely: brain circuits that are firing incorrectly, keeping you awake when you need to be winding down. Sleeping pills don’t address those electrical problems in your brain’s sleep system.
What is TMS Therapy for Insomnia?
TMS, or transcranial magnetic stimulation, is a way to stimulate the brain without surgery. It’s FDA-approved and uses magnetic pulses to help reset the brain circuits involved in your sleep-wake cycle. It works differently than medication, which often just covers up the symptoms or can lead to dependence. TMS aims to fix the actual problem with the brain circuits that cause chronic insomnia.
For people with ongoing sleep problems, TMS focuses on the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and the posterior parietal cortex, brain areas that become overactive insomnia. This overactivity keeps you from falling into restful sleep. TMS delivers precise magnetic pulses to these areas to calm the excessive neural firing. It helps balance your brain’s arousal systems and rebuild healthy sleep patterns. This treatment changes how certain brain chemicals are released and restores the circuits that affect falling asleep, staying asleep, and waking up feeling refreshed.
Why Our Insomnia Program is Different
SeeBeyond Medicine focuses on optimizing your brain. We know lasting sleep comes from more than just stimulating it. Insomnia isn’t usually a simple problem with a single brain circuit. Things like neurotransmitter imbalances, nutritional gaps, inflammation, and lifestyle play a big role – things that many standard TMS clinics miss. That’s why we created our Enhanced TMS Protocol. It’s a full, functional medicine approach. We tackle every piece of your sleep dysfunction to get you lasting results.
Our Enhanced TMS Protocol includes four integrated components:
Neurotransmitter Testing (Pre & Post-Treatment)
Before starting TMS, we check your baseline. We look at serotonin, dopamine, GABA, and other brain chemicals important for sleep. It’s not just guessing. We use real data to see what’s happening in your brain chemistry. After TMS, we retest. This shows the actual changes in your neurotransmitter levels. We’re talking about measurable changes, proving your brain is healing at a fundamental level.
Calm IV Therapy
During your TMS treatment, you’ll get a special intravenous nutrient therapy. It’s designed to ease anxiety, calm your nervous system, and help your brain make neurotransmitters effectively. Our Calm IV includes magnesium, it’s a natural mineral that promotes relaxation and B Vitamins. These vitamins help create serotonin and melatonin, which are important for mood and sleep. This infusion helps set the right chemical environment in your brain so it can respond better to TMS stimulation.
Acupuncture Sessions
We use acupuncture as part of your treatment. It can help TMS work even better, lower inflammation throughout your body, and boost BDNF. Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor is a protein that’s really important for your brain to heal and form new, healthy connections. Acupuncture can also help regulate your nervous system. It helps move your body from a stressed-out state – the “fight or flight” response – to a calmer state – “rest and digest” – which is key for good sleep.
Health Coach Brain Health Sessions
Your journey includes personalized one-on-one sessions with our dedicated health coach, who will guide you through evidence-based strategies for sleep hygiene, circadian rhythm optimization, stress management, nutrition, and targeted supplementation. We address every lifestyle factor that influences your brain’s ability to achieve restorative sleep, ensuring your TMS results extend far beyond the treatment room.

Is TMS for Insomnia Right for You?
TMS therapy for insomnia may be an ideal solution if you identify with any of the following:
- You’ve struggled with chronic insomnia for months or years, and conventional treatments haven’t provided lasting relief
- You’re frustrated by the side effects, dependency, or limited effectiveness of sleeping pills and sedative medications
- You’re seeking a non-pharmacological, non-invasive solution that addresses the root cause of your sleep dysfunction rather than masking symptoms
- You’re experiencing daytime fatigue, brain fog, irritability, or reduced productivity due to poor sleep quality
- You understand that optimal health requires more than quick fixes—you’re ready to invest in a comprehensive, evidence-based program that supports true brain healing
- You want measurable results backed by objective testing, not just subjective improvements
It’s important to note that while TMS is FDA-cleared for major depressive disorder and obsessive-compulsive disorder, its use for insomnia is considered off-label, based on promising emerging research demonstrating significant improvements in sleep quality and sleep architecture. At SeeBeyond Medicine, we stay at the forefront of functional neurology, offering cutting-edge treatments supported by clinical evidence and tailored to your individual needs.
Begin Your Journey to Lasting Relief
Insomnia isn’t a permanent condition. It’s a sign your brain needs support, a little rebalancing, and good care. Our TMS Protocol uses the latest neuroscience along with functional medicine. It helps you get the restful sleep you need to feel good and be your best.
The first step is a quick chat. We want to understand what makes your brain unique, your personal history, and what works best for you. Find out more about our TMS therapy and how we’re helping people in Westchester and Fairfield Counties get past their symptoms and sleep well again.
