Timing of brain stimulation to improve insomnia treatment
Part of Brain & nervous system, Mental health clinical trials.
This study tests whether giving a specific type of brain stimulation (rTMS) at the right time can help make insomnia treatment work better. It may be an option for people ages 25 to 45 who have trouble sleeping and live near Stanford University.

This study tests whether accelerated repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS)—a non-invasive brain stimulation technique—can improve sleep architecture and quality in people with chronic insomnia. The treatment may help you fall asleep faster and sleep longer without medication.
This trial tests a personalized, non-invasive brain stimulation method (transcranial direct current stimulation, or tDCS) to improve sleep in adults with insomnia. It may help if you have trouble sleeping and haven't tried certain other treatments.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) can improve sleep in people with moderate to severe insomnia. You would come to the University of Arizona for several sessions, and the treatment is painless and doesn't require surgery.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation technique called rTMS can help people with both anxiety and insomnia. Treatments target a specific brain region to reduce anxiety and improve sleep.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation method (TMS) combined with cognitive training can improve sleep in older adults with mild memory issues. It may help if you have trouble falling or staying asleep and have early memory changes.
This trial tests if adding a gentle brain stimulation technique (transcranial alternating current) to standard cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) improves sleep in people with long-term insomnia. It aims to find a better treatment option for those who haven't responded to other therapies.
