EXOMIND™ is a transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) treatment. You sit in a comfortable chair, fully awake, while a small applicator rests against your head and sends gentle magnetic pulses to the part of the brain that manages mood, motivation, focus and self-control. Most people say it feels like light tapping.
A treatment takes about 20 minutes – plan on about half an hour in the clinic. There is no medication, no needle and no downtime; you drive yourself home. Dr. Sabah Jarullah, our on-site family physician, assesses everyone first and directs every course.
This care is provided on the medical side of Westside under Dr. Sabah Jarullah, family physician. Every patient begins with a medical assessment; insured visits are covered under the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan. No referral needed.
For people with a diagnosis, or symptoms serious enough to need treatment. Dr. Sabah prescribes and directs the course, tracks your progress with short questionnaires, and works with your psychiatrist, psychologist or family doctor if you have one. EXOMIND™ is often added alongside medication or therapy – or used when those have not been enough on their own.
For people without a diagnosis who want help with stress, focus, sleep, motivation or self-control. Same technology, same physician assessment first, usually a shorter course. Many patients pair it with the sleep, pain or TMJ care they already receive at Westside.
Depression and OCD are the best-studied uses of TMS. The others are newer – some have published studies behind them, some are still being researched. At your consultation Dr. Sabah will tell you plainly what the evidence says for your situation and whether EXOMIND™ makes sense on its own or alongside other care.
About an hour with Dr. Sabah: your history, current treatments and medications, a safety check, and a few short questionnaires so you can both see your progress later. You leave with a plan and your sessions booked.
We find your personal setting, position the applicator and start gently. You are awake and can talk the whole time. Some people feel tired or have a mild headache afterwards – that is expected and settles.
Most people do 6 to 12 sessions, two a week, over three to six weeks. Each treatment is about 20 minutes. Keep your usual medication and therapy going unless your prescriber says otherwise.
A check-in halfway, a review after your last session, and another around three months later – the point where benefits tend to be strongest. Top-up sessions are available if they help.
Consultations and follow-up visits with Dr. Sabah are insured under the Alberta Health Care Insurance Plan – bring your health card. EXOMIND™ sessions are a private fee, explained before you book. When there is a medical diagnosis, many people submit the cost to a Health Spending Account, and some extended health plans cover TMS for depression; we give you the paperwork. 0% financing through Beautifi is also available.
