I'm not sure if there's much of a price difference but mine is a little over $10k, but fortunately my insurance company is covering most of it. There was specific pre qualifications I needed prior to in order for them to approve it though, and every insurance company is different.

I wonder what the voltage is and how long the treatments are. Where are the currents applied? Temples? Front ? Back? I had a Fisher Wallace for 400. deal but I did not have the discipline to use it. Meditation worked for me.

Brainsway is the name of just one of the companies that offers the device used for TMS. TMS stands for transcranial magnetic stimulation.

I just started Brainsway TMS, and I asked what the difference between the two companies were. The lady that does my TMS treatments said that many patients that had Neurostar and were unsuccessful with it will try Brainsway and have better luck. At least that's what they've noticed with their patients. I've only had three Brainsway treatments, hoping that it will help my depression.
