Noninvasive Brain-Based Support for Restful Sleep
Sleep is the foundation of mental clarity, emotional balance, and overall health. But for millions of adults, it doesn’t come easily. Whether you’re tossing and turning for hours, waking up frequently, or feeling unrested despite a full night in bed, sleep disturbances can affect every part of your life.
At Michigan Med Spa and Michigan Spine and Pain, we understand that sleep problems are more than frustrating—they’re disruptive to your mood, memory, and physical well-being. We offer Exomind, a cutting-edge TMS therapy that targets the brain regions involved in sleep regulation, mood, and stress. This noninvasive, drug-free treatment is available at our West Bloomfield locations to help you achieve more restful, restorative nights.
If you’re struggling with chronic insomnia, restless sleep, or mental health conditions that affect your rest, schedule a consultation to learn how we can help.
Understanding Sleep Disturbances
Sleep disturbances can refer to a range of difficulties with falling asleep, staying asleep, or achieving high-quality sleep. For some, the issue is trouble shutting the brain off at night; for others, it’s waking too early or never reaching deep, restorative stages of sleep.
Disrupted sleep patterns don’t just leave you tired. They impair cognitive function, worsen mood, and contribute to long-term health problems like depression, heart disease, or impaired immunity.
Chronic Insomnia
Chronic insomnia is one of the most common sleep disorders. It involves difficulty falling or staying asleep at least three nights a week for three months or more. Causes can range from stress and anxiety to neurological imbalances or primary insomnia, where no clear cause is found.
Depression and Comorbid Sleep Issues
Sleep and mood are deeply connected. Major depressive disorder, anxiety disorders, and other mood disorders often go hand-in-hand with sleep deprivation. In fact, insomnia is a core symptom of major depression. These overlapping concerns—called comorbid conditions—require an approach that addresses both sleep and mental health.
Other Sleep Disorders
While sleep apnea, narcolepsy, and restless legs syndrome have distinct causes, they all result in fragmented or poor-quality rest. Even if you don’t wake fully, your brain may not reach enough REM sleep or slow wave sleep to restore energy and memory.
These problems are often addressed with sleep medicine, but we offer a new, drug-free solution: non-invasive brain stimulation that supports the areas of the brain responsible for rest, regulation, and resilience.
Why Do Sleep Disturbances Occur?
Sleep problems can result from many overlapping influences—biological, emotional, and behavioral. Common causes include:
- Overactive brain activity at night due to stress, trauma, or poor sleep hygiene
- Imbalanced neurotransmitters in the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and other brain regions
- Comorbid mental health conditions like depression or anxiety
- Stimulant use, late-night screen time, or irregular sleep schedules
- Hormonal shifts, especially during menopause or high-stress periods
- Medication side effects, including from antidepressants or sleep aids
- Poor sleep environments, including noise, light, or body discomfort
Understanding the root causes of your sleep disturbances allows us to develop a comprehensive treatment plan that goes beyond band-aid fixes.
How Exomind Can Help
Exomind is an advanced form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS), a safe, noninvasive treatment that uses magnetic pulses to stimulate targeted areas of the brain involved in sleep, mood regulation, and cognitive control.
This technology, grounded in neuroscience, uses either high-frequency or low-frequency magnetic fields to shift activity in regions such as the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex and parietal cortex. By rebalancing overactive or underactive neural circuits, Exomind promotes more regular, restful sleep without the side effects of traditional sleep meds.
While TMS is best known for treating major depressive disorder, emerging research shows promise in improving sleep quality and reducing insomnia symptoms, especially when sleep issues are tied to depressive symptoms or anxiety.
Benefits of Exomind for Sleep
- Fall asleep faster and stay asleep longer
- Reduce nighttime awakenings and early waking
- Improve depth and quality of REM sleep and slow wave sleep
- Address both sleep disturbances and mood disorders simultaneously
- Enhance energy, focus, and overall quality of life
- No sedation, drugs, or next-day grogginess
- Safe for long-term use and FDA-approved for depression
- Can complement CBT for insomnia, psychotherapy, or sleep medicine
Exomind is FDA-approved for the treatment of major depression that hasn’t responded to antidepressant medication. In Canada, it’s additionally approved for symptom reduction of anxiety-related depression and supporting the treatment of obsessive compulsive disorder and binge eating disorder.

- Cognitive Behavioral Therapy for Insomnia (CBT-I): A first-line, evidence-based approach that targets thought patterns and habits that prevent restful sleep.
- Psychotherapy: Addressing underlying stress, trauma, or mental health concerns can reduce nighttime rumination.
- Mindfulness and Relaxation Training: Deep breathing, guided imagery, and progressive muscle relaxation help signal the body it’s time to rest.
- Sleep Routine Optimization: Going to bed and waking up at the same time each day supports healthy sleep patterns.
- Medication Management: In some cases, a provider may adjust existing prescriptions or explore antidepressants with minimal sedative effects.
- Sleep Environment Adjustments: Light-blocking curtains, white noise, cooling mattresses, and screen-free time can all improve results.
- Nutritional Support: Avoiding alcohol, caffeine, and heavy evening meals helps reduce sleep disturbances.
- Physical Activity: Regular, moderate exercise improves brain activity and promotes natural fatigue at night.
