Ohio State Wexner Medical Center Offers First Depression ...

Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center is the first hospital in the area to offer a novel treatment for depression, with no drug side effects.

"The brain is like an electrical device," said Dr. James Young, a psychiatrist with OSU. "It has currents. It has electricity. So, we can use a magnetic field to alter the current of the electricity in different parts of the brain."

Young said that the therapy targets the symptoms of depression. There are no side effects, because there are no drugs.

"My hope is that over the years, as we learn more about this technique, that we refine it and we get better at it," Young said.
