Can TMS Lift the “Brain Fog” of Long COVID? 

Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS) treatment for patients with post-COVID “long COVID” is being studied by researchers in Japan. They are studying the effects of “Long COVID”, which include improvement of depressive symptoms and cognitive function. 

Twenty-three participants aged 20 to 70 years were identified as presenting with conditions that manifested after contracting COVID. None of the participants received psychiatric medications before entering the study. 

TMS was shown to enhance cognitive function in this study. It was noted that no participant showed deterioration in cognitive function following the TMS sessions.
