– Drug-Free Depression Treatment in Calgary SW

Drug-Free Depression Treatment

Depression affects how you think, feel, and function in your daily life – and for many people, the search for relief is long and difficult. At Westside Dental, we offer EXOMIND®: a Health Canada-approved brain stimulation treatment for depression that requires no medication and no downtime. As Alberta’s official EXOMIND launching partner, we are one of the only clinics in the province where this treatment is available.

What the research shows: In a clinical study of 33 participants, 87.5% showed continued improvement in mental well-being at 3-month follow-up – with self-reported benefits in mood, confidence, mental energy, and overall wellbeing. Results continued to build even after treatment ended.

How it works: EXOMIND gently stimulates the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex – the area of the brain most associated with mood regulation and emotional resilience. Over 4 sessions spaced 5–10 days apart, this stimulation promotes neuroplasticity — helping the brain strengthen the neural connections that support positive mood. Both Dr. Z and Dr. Sabah assess patients to determine suitability.

EXOMIND is not a replacement for professional mental health care or prescribed medication.
