Abstract
A method of modulating a brain activity of a mammal is achieved by subjecting the mammal to transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) with a TMS apparatus at random variable pulse intervals for a time sufficient to modulate said brain activity. The method can also be used by administering electric stimulation to the brain. Improvement in a physiological condition or a clinical condition is achieved. Conditions to be treated include but are not limited to PTSD, autism spectrum disorder addiction (SUD) and Alzheimer's disease.
Claims2
A method of treating a patient's brain which comprises:
- a) subjecting the patient to an EEG to create an EEG data set,
- b) analyzing the EEG data set to identify alpha spindle events resulting in an EEG signal pattern,
- c) using the EEG signal pattern to program a TMS apparatus to deliver magnetic stimulation (TMS) having random pulse intervals and
- d) subjecting the patient to random transcranial magnetic stimulation from said programmed TMS apparatus.
