Ectron and Magventure's rTMS Depression Treatment Workshop -'Informative and well presented'

Ectron and Magventure were incredibly pleased with the turnout for the rTMS for Depression Treatment Workshop in London on Wednesday 8th June 2016. The workshop which was held at the The Royal College of Psychiatrists was attended by over thirty psychiatry and healthcare professionals representing both the public and private sectors from across the UK.

Mr. Alex Jones, Director of Ectron made opening remarks and Professor Alexander Sack, Functional Brain Stimulation and Neurocognitive Psychology at the Faculty of Psychology and Neuroscience, Maastricht University, continued with an introduction to Transcranial Magenetic Stimulation for Depression treatment followed by a Q & A session.

Matthias Kienle then presented a practical "hands-on session" with the Magventure MagVita TMS Therapy® system. The only CE marked TMS system available in the UK.


Ectron have received incredibly positive feedback from the workshop with 100% of all responses stating they would recommend Ectron and Magventure's rTMS Workshop to a colleague.

"The combination of lectures and practical demonstrations were excellent"

"Presentation by Professor Sack was very interesting"

"Informative and well presented"

Thanks again to all those who attended our London event! If you would like to register for Ectron's next TMS for Depression Treatment Workshop please email lucille@ectron.co.uk

Tecnobody solutions in NeurotherapyWorx

By Giuliana Kinnerly • January 6, 2025
We are so pleased to see our Tecnobody Solution at the neuro-rehab outpatient centre in Neurotherapy Worx. The centre, based near Wigan, started using the D-Wall at the beginning of the year and went on to include the Prokin 252, WalkerView, and Data Server devices. Clinic owner, Sarah Wilkinson's experience with the advanced motion tracking, analysis, and therapy programs of the D-Wall has led her to adopt additional solutions, such as the Prokin 252 for balance and proprioception, and the Walker View for gait assessment and training. This strategy is designed to motivate patients and supply valuable data to the physiotherapy team, potentially reducing recovery time.
