when the weight won't lift
Living with depression
For adults who haven't found enough relief from medication — a drug-free path designed to reduce depression symptoms.
The First & Only in Southern Utah
Feel like yourself again.
EXOMIND is an FDA-cleared, drug-free brain-stimulation therapy for depression, anxiety, brain fog, and emotional wellness — now in Southern Utah, under the oversight of a board-certified physician.
What it is
Mental wellness, reimagined
EXOMIND is a noninvasive brain-stimulation therapy powered by ExoTMS™ — a form of transcranial magnetic stimulation that stimulates the areas of the brain responsible for mood, focus, impulse control, and emotional balance. FDA-cleared for depression. Also used for anxiety, cognitive clarity, sleep, and food noise.
Think of it as a workout for your mind. Each under-30-minute session strengthens the brain's own neural pathways over time — the same way training strengthens a muscle. No medication. No anesthesia. No downtime. Walk in, walk out, carry on with your day.
EXOMIND — For Mental Wellness & Beyond
Five ways EXOMIND strengthens your mind
Depression is what it's cleared for. But what it does goes well beyond that — supporting the full spectrum of mental and emotional wellness.
Elevates Mood & Emotional Resilience
EXOMIND stimulates the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) — a key region for mood regulation — to reduce symptoms of depression while enhancing emotional resilience. Patients report greater happiness, optimism, and balance.
Best for: Depression · Chronic stress · Emotional instability
Enhances Cognitive Function & Mental Clarity
EXOMIND enhances focus, memory, and executive function by strengthening brain connectivity and improving mental processing speed. Reduces brain fog and boosts concentration — ideal for entrepreneurs, professionals, and students.
Best for: Brain fog · Poor focus · Cognitive optimization
Rebalances the Mind & Calms Anxiety
EXOMIND rebalances the mind by optimizing neural activity, helping regulate emotions and reducing symptoms of anxiety and related conditions. By restoring stability in key brain regions, it promotes clarity, calm, and overall mental well-being.
Best for: Anxiety · Mood swings · Stress overwhelm
Improves Sleep Quality & Energy Levels
EXOMIND regulates sleep patterns by influencing brain wave activity associated with restfulness, reducing insomnia and sleep disturbances for a more refreshing night's rest. Boosts daytime energy and motivation — ideal for those struggling with poor sleep or chronic fatigue.
Best for: Insomnia · Fatigue · Low motivation
Helps Manage Food Noise & Emotional Eating
EXOMIND helps regulate impulse control, enhance mental clarity, and strengthen self-discipline — making it easier to overcome emotional eating and food cravings. For patients on GLP-1 medications for weight loss, EXOMIND boosts the mental resilience needed for long-term success.
In clinical use, 100% of patients reduced food cravings at their one-month follow-up. Average weight loss of 5 lbs at one month. 78% of patients had lost weight.
Best for: Emotional overeating · GLP-1 patients · Binge eating tendencies · Post-weight-loss maintenance

The only way to know is a conversation. We'll give you an honest answer.
Start here
Your visit
Sit back. Relax. In under 30 minutes, you're done — and free to get on with your day.
A provider positions the EXOMIND device gently against your scalp. There's nothing to prepare, no anesthesia, and no recovery. Many patients listen to music, meditate, or simply close their eyes while gentle magnetic pulses do the work.
The GLP-1 Connection
Semaglutide quiets the body's hunger. EXOMIND quiets the mind's.
Food noise — the constant mental chatter about food, cravings, and eating — often persists even when physical appetite is reduced by GLP-1 medications. EXOMIND targets the brain regions responsible for impulse control and dopamine regulation, helping to reduce the emotional and psychological pull toward food that no injection can reach.
Whether you're currently on a GLP-1 program or transitioning off one, EXOMIND is emerging as a powerful complement — supporting the mental side of what is ultimately a mental and physical challenge.

How it works
Gentle pulses. Real science.
- 1
Targeted stimulation
Precisely calibrated magnetic pulses reach the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex — the region of the brain involved in mood regulation, focus, impulse control, and emotional balance.
- 2
Renewed connectivity
That stimulation encourages healthier communication between neurons — supporting the brain's natural ability to adapt, known as neuroplasticity.
- 3
Strengthened pathways
Over a series of sessions, the goal is to reinforce healthy patterns of activity that support a steadier mood, clearer thinking, and stronger impulse control.
- 4
No downtime
You're awake and comfortable throughout, and you walk out ready to carry on with your day — no medication, no anesthesia, no recovery.

Brain therapy deserves a physician's oversight
EXOMIND works with your brain — which is exactly why it shouldn't be offered like a spa add-on. Every EXOMIND patient at Desert Sands is overseen by our Medical Director, Dr. Eric Evans, MD, a board-certified anesthesiologist with 25 years of experience.
That means a careful consultation, an honest assessment of whether you're a candidate, and a plan built around your health — not a sales target.

Frequently asked questions
What is EXOMIND therapy?
EXOMIND is a noninvasive brain-stimulation therapy powered by ExoTMS™, a form of transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS). It's FDA-cleared for the treatment of major depressive disorder in adults who haven't responded adequately to antidepressant medication. Beyond depression, it's also used to support cognitive clarity, reduce anxiety, quiet food noise, improve sleep, and enhance emotional resilience. Sessions are drug-free, last under 30 minutes, and require no downtime.
Does EXOMIND help with anxiety and brain fog?
EXOMIND stimulates the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex — a brain region involved in mood, emotional control, and cognitive function. Many patients report reduced anxiety, sharper thinking, improved memory, and less brain fog over the course of treatment. Anxiety and cognitive applications are considered supportive wellness uses and are discussed with your provider during consultation.
Can EXOMIND help with food noise and emotional eating?
Yes. EXOMIND helps regulate dopamine pathways and strengthen impulse control, which can reduce emotional eating and food cravings. In clinical data, 100% of patients reduced food cravings at their one-month follow-up, with an average weight loss of 5 lbs and 78% of patients having lost weight. It's a natural complement to GLP-1 weight loss programs, supporting the mental resilience side of long-term weight management.
Is EXOMIND available in St. George, Utah?
Yes. Desert Sands Aesthetics & Laser is the first and only provider of EXOMIND therapy in St. George and Southern Utah, offered under the oversight of our Medical Director, Dr. Eric Evans, MD. We serve patients across St. George, Washington, Ivins, Santa Clara, Bloomington, and Cedar City.
Does it hurt?
Most patients find EXOMIND comfortable. A provider places the device gently on your scalp, and you relax for the session. There's no anesthesia and no recovery time — you can return to your day immediately afterward. In clinical data, 90% of patients reported that treatments were comfortable.
How many sessions will I need?
EXOMIND works best as a series of sessions over several weeks. The exact number depends on your individual needs and is determined during your consultation. Your provider will walk you through the recommended schedule.
What are the risks and contraindications?
As with any medical procedure, there are risks and contraindications. TMS-based therapy is generally well tolerated but isn't appropriate for everyone. We'll review your full history and discuss any risks before beginning — part of why every EXOMIND patient here is overseen by a physician.

Important information. EXOMIND is FDA-cleared for the treatment of major depressive disorder (MDD) in adult patients who have failed to achieve satisfactory improvement from prior antidepressant medication in the current episode. EXOMIND should only be used under the supervision of a physician or licensed practitioner. Patient results and experiences vary.
Applications of EXOMIND beyond the treatment of depression — including anxiety, cognitive enhancement, sleep improvement, and food noise reduction — are considered supportive wellness uses, are not FDA-cleared for those indications, and are not intended to diagnose, treat, cure, or prevent any disease. EXOMIND is not a substitute for diagnosis or treatment by a licensed mental-health professional.
