Brain magnetic therapy may ease voices in schizophrenia
In a Lancet study Yale psychiatrist Dr. Ralph Hoffman led 12 patients with daily voice hallucinations. Magnetic stimulation to the speech perception area reduced the severity of voices in most participants versus a sham treatment after four sessions. If confirmed, this approach may illuminate how hallucinations arise and how to curb them.
