This trial tests whether a type of brain stimulation called iTBS (which uses magnetic pulses) added to a standard PTSD therapy (EMDR) helps reduce PTSD symptoms more than EMDR alone. It involves 16 weeks of treatment and requires some commitments like avoiding alcohol.
This study tests transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) as a treatment for PTSD in Veterans. TMS uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas linked to PTSD, aiming to reduce symptoms without medication.
This study tests a non-invasive brain treatment called TMS, which uses magnetic pulses to stimulate brain areas involved in PTSD, along with a medication called D-cycloserine that may help the treatment work better. It is designed for current or former military members with PTSD.
This study tests a non-invasive device that stimulates the vagus nerve in the ear to see if it helps reduce PTSD symptoms. You wear the device during sessions, and it may help your brain manage stress better.
