From PTSD to Peak Performance: Rebalancing the Brain with TMS


Listen Later

Can tuning your brain’s rhythm unlock healing? In this episode of Too Curious MDs, Dr. Kevin Murphy joins Drs. Simi Rahman and Alya Ahmad to explore how personalized transcranial magnetic stimulation (Peak Logic pTMS) is redefining brain care—from PTSD and autism to chronic pain and peak performance. Discover how this data-driven approach uses EEG-guided frequencies to restore balance, optimize function, and bridge the gap between neuroscience and human experience.


Kevin Murphy, MD, is a board-certified radiation oncologist who specializes in treating tumors of the central nervous system (CNS), or brain and spinal cord. Dr. Murphy founded the Stereotactic Radiosurgery Program at UCSD in 2005. His expertise includes using novel technologies such as frameless stereotactic radiosurgery (SRS), intensity modulated stereotactic radiosurgery (IM-SRS) and hypo-fractionated stereotactic radiosurgery to treat brain tumors in both adults and children.


Dr. Murphy has co-authored several book chapters and many abstracts and peer-reviewed articles on behalf of UCSD. His work has appeared in the Journal of Neuro-Oncology, Translational Cancer Research, and Practical Radiation Oncology, among others. He is a frequent speaker at both national and international medical conferences, having over 100 invited lectures in 23 countries.


More recently, Dr. Murphy founded PeakLogic, a medical software company, and MindSet Treatment Center, both based in San Diego. He has gained wide expertise over the last 5 years in the emerging field of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), and has created a proprietary, personalized approach to rTMS treatment termed PrTMS. Dr. Murphy uses PrTMS at MindSet and is well regarded by Navy SEALs veterans and pro athletes who have an interest in maintaining high-level human performance.
