The Future of Addiction Treatment: Insights from Dr. Antonello Bonci

It tells you that if I were addicted to something for years, I have hope, because I've seen this with TMS, very severe, desperate cases of patients that couldn't control their cravings for cocaine, for alcohol, and they did within a few days, within a week, within two weeks or three weeks.
Can a magnet really help treat addiction? In this eye-opening episode of the Landmark Recovery Podcast, host Michael Walsh chats with Dr. Antonello Bonci, a top neurologist and addiction researcher, about the groundbreaking use of Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) in addiction treatment. Dr.
Bonci, who has held prestigious positions at the National Institute of Health and the University of California, San Francisco, shares his extensive experience and the promising results TMS has shown in treating cocaine use disorders and other addictions. Dr. Bonci explains how TMS works by stimulating specific areas of the brain to reduce cravings and improve mental health. He highlights the importance of combining TMS with other therapies to create a comprehensive treatment plan tailored to each individual's needs.
The conversation also touches on the potential of TMS to address mental health issues exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, such as depression and anxiety. While TMS offers exciting possibilities, Dr. Bonci doesn't shy away from discussing the hurdles, including the challenges of securing insurance coverage and the need for more long-term research. This episode is a must-listen for anyone curious about cutting-edge addiction treatments and the future of recovery. Tune in to hear Dr.
Bonci's insights and learn how TMS could be a game-changer for those battling addiction.
