Accelerated Deep TMS™ in Atlanta: Rapid Relief in Days, Not Weeks
Powered by BrainsWay Deep TMS™ and inspired by breakthrough accelerated neuromodulation protocols, our FDA-cleared Accelerated & Customized Deep TMS Protocols condenses weeks of acute treatment into just a few days—achieving an 87.2% clinical response rate and 76.9% remission rate.
The BrainsWay Accelerated & Customized Protocols & Clinical Efficacy
Backed by randomized, double-blind, non-inferiority clinical trial data, BrainsWay's Accelerated Deep TMS protocol delivers powerful neuroplastic stimulation in 9-minute sessions spaced ~50 minutes apart.
6 Acute Treatment Days instead of 4 Daily Weeks
The FDA-cleared BrainsWay Accelerated Deep TMS protocol (SWIFT) replaces 20 consecutive daily visits across 4 weeks with just 6 acute treatment days (5 sessions per day, 9 minutes each, with 50-minute rest intervals), followed by brief weekly maintenance sessions. We also offer 5-Day Intensive iTBS (50 sessions across 5 days) for patients traveling or seeking a single Monday–Friday schedule.
- Acute Phase: 5 sessions/day (~9 min each) with 50-min breaks across 6 treatment days
- Continuation Phase: 2 sessions/day once weekly for 4 weeks to consolidate neuroplasticity
- Zero Systemic Side Effects: Non-invasive, no anesthesia, drive yourself home daily
87.2% Response & 76.9% Remission Rates
In the multicenter clinical study comparing Accelerated & Customized Deep TMS with Standard Deep TMS:
- 87.2% Response Rate and 76.9% Remission Rate on the HDRS-21 scale
- 19.07-point reduction in Hamilton Depression Rating Scale (HDRS-21) scores at 6 weeks
- 7 Days Median Time to Remission in the Accelerated Deep TMS cohort
Accelerated Deep TMS™ vs. Traditional 6-Week TMS
Can't step away from work or family commitments for 36 separate daily appointments across 7 weeks? Accelerated Deep TMS compresses the acute therapeutic dose into days.
| Feature | Accelerated Deep TMS™ (Accelerated & Customized Protocols) | Standard 36-Session Deep TMS™ |
|---|---|---|
| Acute Treatment Days | 5 to 6 Acute Treatment Days | 20 to 36 Daily Visits (6–7 Weeks) |
| Daily Schedule | 5 to 10 Short Sessions/Day (50-min breaks) | 1 Session per Day (Mon–Fri) |
| Active Stimulation Time | ~3 to 9 minutes per session | ~18 to 20 minutes per daily visit |
| Median Time to Remission | ~7 Treatment Days | ~20–21 Treatment Days (~4–6 Weeks) |
| Ideal Candidate | Busy executives, caregivers, travelers, or patients needing rapid turnaround | Local patients preferring short daily 20-minute visits |

Meet with Dr. Gideon Matzkin, MD, ABPN (in person or via Georgia Telepsychiatry) to review your clinical history, verify safety, and personalize your accelerated stimulation parameters.
Precision Cortical Mapping
On Day 1, we perform individualized motor threshold and target mapping using our BrainsWay Deep TMS™ platform.
Hourly Sessions + Restorative Breaks

Real Change You Can See in Brain Activity
Depression and OCD aren't personal failings—they involve measurable changes in brain circuit activity and connectivity. Advanced interventional treatments like BrainsWay Deep TMS™ and SPRAVATO® work directly on underactive neural networks to restore healthy signaling and neuroplasticity.
Depressed Brain
Reduced metabolic & synaptic activity in mood-regulating regions.
Healthy Brain
Restored neural activation and healthy circuit communication.

“After years of feeling stuck, I finally feel like myself again.”

“Spravato gave me hope when nothing else worked.”

Clear Answers to Common Questions
Our Accelerated Deep TMS protocol—known clinically as the SWIFT (Shortened Weekly Intense Fast Treatment) protocol—is FDA-cleared on the BrainsWay Deep TMS™ H1-Coil platform for Major Depressive Disorder. Instead of 36 daily visits spread over 6 weeks, the acute phase delivers 5 short 9-minute sessions per day (spaced ~50 minutes apart) across 6 treatment days, or an intensive 5-day theta-burst (iTBS) schedule tailored by Dr. Matzkin.
In clinical trials of BrainsWay Accelerated Deep TMS, the median time to remission was just 7 days from starting treatment (compared to ~21 days of treatment in standard daily protocols), with an 87.2% response rate and 76.9% remission rate on the HDRS-21 scale.
Each stimulation session lasts only about 3 to 9 minutes, followed by a ~50-minute rest interval where you can relax in our comfortable clinic, work remotely on Wi-Fi, read, or rest between sessions.
Our clinic utilizes FDA-cleared BrainsWay Deep TMS™ (H1 and H7 Coils), allowing Dr. Matzkin to tailor FDA-cleared Accelerated & Customized Deep TMS or intermittent theta-burst (iTBS) protocols to your specific clinical presentation.
