Reclaim Your Mental Clarity and Neurological Health with Our Advanced TMS Protocol for Lyme Disease Complications

BOOK AN APPOINTMENT

At SeeBeyond Medicine, we understand that Lyme disease’s neurological effects can persist long after standard treatments end. When conventional approaches fall short, our comprehensive, non-pharmacological program combines advanced brain stimulation with functional medicine to address the electrical and inflammatory disruptions in your brain, helping you break free from the mental fog, mood changes, and cognitive challenges that standard treatments often miss.

The Lyme-Related Neurological Struggle: When You’ve Tried Everything

Are you experiencing persistent brain fog, memory problems, or difficulty concentrating despite completing antibiotic treatment for Lyme disease?

Do you struggle with unexplained anxiety, depression, or mood swings that appeared after your Lyme infection?

Have you been told your symptoms are “all in your head” when you know something still isn’t right with your nervous system?

Are you tired of being caught between infectious disease specialists and neurologists, with neither fully addressing your ongoing cognitive and neurological symptoms?

For many Lyme patients, the neurological aftermath can be devastating and persistent. You’ve likely been through rounds of antibiotics that addressed the infection but left you with lingering cognitive impairment, mood disorders, and neurological symptoms. This frustrating experience has a scientific explanation: Lyme disease doesn’t just cause an infection. It triggers a cascade of inflammatory responses and electrical disruptions in the brain’s delicate circuitry.

The reason standard treatments often fall short is that chemical solutions (like antibiotics and anti-inflammatories) can’t always fix the electrical problems that persist in your brain circuits. At SeeBeyond Medicine, we recognize that post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome with neurological complications requires a different approach – one that addresses both the lingering inflammation and the disrupted brain circuits directly.

What is TMS Therapy for Lyme-Related Neurological Symptoms?

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) is an FDA-approved, non-invasive therapy that uses precisely targeted magnetic pulses to stimulate specific regions of the brain affected by Lyme disease. These gentle pulses work like a “reset button” for dysfunctional neural circuits, helping to restore normal brain activity patterns that have been disrupted by Lyme-induced inflammation and immune responses.

Lyme disease’s neurological impact often affects three critical brain networks:

  1. The Central Executive Network (CEN): This network, centered in your prefrontal cortex, controls executive functions like decision-making, focus, and cognitive processing. In Lyme patients, this network often becomes underactive, leading to the classic “brain fog,” poor concentration, and difficulty making decisions.
  2. The Default Mode Network (DMN): This deeper brain network manages self-reflection and internal thinking. In neurological Lyme, it can become overactive and poorly regulated, contributing to rumination, anxiety, and inability to quiet mental chatter.
  3. The Salience Network (SN): This network determines what your brain pays attention to and how it processes sensory information. In Lyme patients, this network often becomes hypersensitive, causing heightened reactions to sounds, lights, and other stimuli.

TMS works by delivering targeted magnetic pulses that help restore balance to these networks, enhancing activity in the underactive executive function areas while calming overactive regions. Research suggests that TMS can also help reduce neuroinflammation, a key driver of persistent symptoms in post-treatment Lyme disease syndrome.

Why Our Lyme Neurological Program is Different

At SeeBeyond Medicine, we optimize your brain, not just treat it. Unlike conventional Lyme treatment centers that focus solely on antibiotics, or standard TMS clinics that offer magnetic stimulation in isolation, we’ve developed a comprehensive Enhanced TMS Protocol specifically designed for the complex needs of Lyme patients with neurological complications.

Our unique, four-component approach addresses not only the electrical disruptions in your brain circuits but also the underlying inflammation, immune dysregulation, and metabolic factors that perpetuate neurological symptoms:

Neurotransmitter Testing (Pre & Post-Treatment)

We conduct comprehensive testing of your brain chemistry before and after treatment, measuring key neurotransmitters like serotonin, dopamine, and GABA that are often depleted in neurological Lyme. This allows us to track real, measurable improvements and customize your protocol based on your unique biochemical profile.

Calm IV Therapy

To enhance your results, we provide specialized intravenous therapy during your TMS sessions, formulated with magnesium, B vitamins, and targeted anti-inflammatory compounds. These nutrients support neurotransmitter production, reduce neuroinflammation, and create the optimal biochemical environment for your brain to heal while the TMS works on rebalancing your neural circuits.

Integrated Acupuncture Sessions

Research shows that combining acupuncture with TMS significantly enhances outcomes for neurological conditions. Acupuncture helps reduce inflammation, improve blood flow to the brain, and increase levels of Brain-Derived Neurotrophic Factor (BDNF). This is a critical protein for brain healing that is often depleted in Lyme patients. This combination therapy creates a synergistic effect that accelerates recovery.

Health Coach Brain Health Sessions

Your journey includes personalized guidance from our health coach on evidence-based nutrition, lifestyle modifications, and supplementation specifically designed for neurological Lyme recovery. These sessions address key factors like gut health (critical for reducing neuroinflammation), sleep quality, stress management, and targeted nutritional support to maintain and enhance the benefits of your TMS treatment.

This integrated approach is what truly sets SeeBeyond Medicine apart. We address the complex interplay of electrical, inflammatory, immune, and metabolic factors that keep Lyme patients stuck in a cycle of neurological dysfunction.

Your Questions About TMS for Lyme-Related Neurological Care

What does TMS for Lyme-related neurological symptoms feel like?

During your session, you’ll sit comfortably in a chair while a specialized helmet is placed gently on your head. You’ll hear a soft clicking sound and may feel a light tapping sensation on your scalp as the magnetic pulses are delivered. Most patients find the experience relaxing and use the time to rest or meditate. There’s no pain, no anesthesia, and no downtime. You can drive yourself home and resume normal activities immediately.

How long is a TMS session for Lyme-related symptoms?

Our advanced protocols are remarkably efficient. A typical session lasts only 5 to 12 minutes. The full course of treatment typically involves sessions 5 days per week for 4-6 weeks, though we also offer accelerated protocols that can be completed in a much shorter timeframe for patients who travel from outside the area.

How does TMS help with Lyme brain fog and cognitive issues?

TMS directly targets the prefrontal cortex and related networks that control executive function, attention, and cognitive processing. These areas are often affected by Lyme-induced inflammation. By stimulating these regions, TMS helps strengthen neural connections and restore normal activity patterns, leading to improvements in mental clarity, focus, memory, and cognitive stamina.

Why do you combine TMS with functional medicine for Lyme?

Lyme disease creates a complex interplay of issues: infection, inflammation, immune dysregulation, and brain circuit disruption. TMS addresses the electrical component, but optimal healing requires addressing all aspects of the condition. Our functional medicine approach targets the underlying inflammation, immune imbalances, and metabolic factors that perpetuate symptoms, creating a comprehensive solution that’s more effective than either approach alone.

Is TMS safe for Lyme patients?

Yes. TMS is extremely safe and well-tolerated, with minimal side effects. Unlike medications, it has no systemic side effects. It has no impact on your digestion, weight, or other bodily systems. The most common side effect is mild, temporary scalp discomfort during treatment. For Lyme patients who are often sensitive to medications, TMS offers a gentle alternative that won’t add to your body’s toxic burden.

Can TMS help if I’m still on antibiotics or other Lyme treatments?

Yes. TMS is compatible with most Lyme treatment protocols, including antibiotics, herbs, and other therapies. In fact, many patients find that TMS enhances their response to these treatments by improving brain function and reducing neuroinflammation. Our team will carefully review your current treatment plan to ensure optimal coordination of care.
