What is rTMS?
Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS)
rTMS (repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is a safe, non-invasive treatment that uses carefully controlled magnetic pulses to gently activate specific areas of your brain responsible for regulating mood and emotional wellbeing.
Why Choose rTMS?
At The Sherpah Clinic, we provide evidence-based rTMS therapy for treatment-resistant depression, anxiety disorders, OCD, PTSD, and chronic pain. This proven approach offers significant advantages including no systemic medication side effects, excellent safety records supported by decades of research, and high patient satisfaction rates.

Drug-Free ADHD & Neurofeedback Support
In partnership with Headquarters Clinic, we now offer access to science-backed neurofeedback — a safe, non-invasive way to train the brain without medication. Each program begins with quantitative EEG (qEEG) brain mapping to pinpoint dysregulated activity linked to ADHD symptoms.
Real-time EEG feedback sessions help improve focus, impulse control, sleep quality, and emotional regulation. Training can be completed in-clinic or at home with professional-grade equipment that is remotely monitored by neuroscientists, keeping every session personalised and accountable.
Personalised qEEG Brain Map
Baseline qEEG identifies the networks responsible for inattention, hyperactivity, sleep disruption, or mood swings so we can target the exact circuits that need support.
At-Home or In-Clinic Training
Using monitored neurofeedback sessions, patients receive real-time guidance that reshapes brainwave patterns tied to attention and executive function — no medication required.
Long-Term Coaching
Headquarters clinicians review progress, refresh protocols, and provide lifestyle coaching to cement gains in focus, resilience, and emotional regulation.
Perfect for: Children, teens, and adults seeking a drug-free ADHD option or needing support alongside existing care plans.
