Episode 9: The Neuroscience of Hope: How Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation Could Help ME/CFS (Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), Fibromyalgia & Chronic Pain with guest Dr. Andrew Leuchter
Description
Join Dr. Eleanor Stein and world‑renowned neuroscientist Dr. Andrew Leuchter (UCLA Neuromodulation Division) as they explore
• How rTMS drives neuroplasticity and rewires brain networks
• EEG biomarkers & fMRI brain imaging revealing real‑time neural changes
• Why rTMS often works when antidepressants fail—and sometimes works faster
• Personalized brain stimulation vs. one‑size‑fits‑all protocols
• Accelerated rTMS protocols: can you rewire your brain in just 5 days?
• Off‑label neuromodulation uses for tinnitus, fibromyalgia, ME/CFS, & chronic pain relief
• How rTMS targets the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) and other brain hubs to restore mood, cognition & emotional balance
With over 250+ scientific publications, Dr. Leuchter explains the science of neuroplasticity: how electromagnetic pulses trigger synaptic changes, reshape neural circuits, and improve executive function, memory & mood.
