Somatics
manufactures and distributes the Thymatron®
integrated brief-pulse electroconvulsive therapy (ECT)
instrument (the world's most advanced unit for this
treatment), accessories, supplies, books, patient
information, and educational videotapes.
Somatics was founded
in 1983 by two internationally recognized ECT experts
and Professors of Psychiatry for the purpose of
manufacturing and distributing the Thymatron®
brief-pulse electroconvulsive therapy instrument. In
just a few years Somatics became the leading
manufacturer of this equipment world-wide, incorporating
patent after patent into the design until, at present,
Thymatron®
instruments, accessories, and supplies are protected by
12 U.S. patents (foreign patents granted and pending).
The present goal of
Somatics is to continue to improve the quality of ECT
practice worldwide through extensive physician and nurse
education and regular upgrades of its products.
