Cerebellar Continuous Theta Burst Stimulation for Insomnia Disorder: A Randomized Sham-Controlled Trial.

CNS neuroscience & therapeutics·October 1, 2026·PMID 42929074

Why it matters

Insomnia disorder is common and often inadequately treated, with many patients seeking non-pharmacologic options. This trial provides early evidence that cerebellar cTBS—a non-invasive brain stimulation technique—may improve sleep and mood symptoms, offering a potential alternative for patients who do not respond to or tolerate standard therapies.
