Cognitive Decline

We offer a revolutionary treatment called MeRT, or Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy. MeRT is both non-invasive and drug-free, and may help with cognitive problems.

Mild Cognitive Impairment doesn’t have a single cause. Symptoms vary; they can remain the same for years, and possibly improve over time. But, in some cases, it can progress to Dementia or Alzheimer’s disease.

Is it possible to Improve your Brain Function? We have seen positive results from patients who receive MeRT treatment.

Cognitive Decline

Cognitive Decline is a blanket term that is used to describe different types of gradual loss of brain function. Memory loss and potentially lack of focus and concentration, poor decision-making, etc.

Because Cognitive Decline includes various conditions and severity, we break that down further into three categories:

According to the Mayo Clinic:

“Cognitive Impairment is the stage between the expected decline in memory that happens with age and the more serious decline of dementia. Cognitive Impairment may include problems with memory, language, or judgement.

People with Cognitive Impairment may be aware that their memory or mental function has slipped. Family and friends also may notice changes. But these changes aren’t bad enough to impact daily life or affect usual activities.

Cognitive Impairment may increase the risk of dementia caused by Alzheimer’s disease or other brain disorders. Some people with Cognitive Impairment might never get worse. And, some eventually get better.”

There is hope… MeRT is drug-free and may help with Cognitive Decline!

Symptoms of Cognitive Decline

Depending on the cause and degree of Cognitive Decline, symptoms vary based on the specific condition. Symptoms include:

A diagnosis of Dementia or Alzheimer’s can be scary. Our new patient coordinator can answer your questions and let you know how we can help.

Dementia/Alzheimer’s

Receiving a diagnosis of Dementia or Alzheimer’s is can be scary for both the patient and their families.

There are multiple causes that gradually lead to a diagnosis of Alzheimer’s or Dementia. These include genetic factors, brain injuries, stroke, and Parkinson’s disease. Symptoms can also result from a combination of factors including toxic burden, infections, chronic inflammation, and lifestyle. Other conditions such as cardiovascular disease and diabetes can contribute too.

Some newer studies are exploring links between poorly managed blood sugar and Alzheimer’s, and referring to Alzheimer’s disease as Type 3 Diabetes.

Brainwave Neuro Performance Center offers a revolutionary treatment called MeRT, or Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy. This treatment is non-invasive and drug-free. We’ve seen some promising results with our Dementia patients. MeRT can help to slow the progression of the disease. And it can also help with accompanying conditions such as Depression and Anxiety. *

For patients who have progressive forms of Dementia, ongoing treatment is needed to maintain what’s gained in the initial round of treatment.

*Results can vary.

MeRT can provide you with a mental “tune-up” which can improve your quality of life and give you a fresh outlook!

Brain Optimization

Mental performance declines over time. Causes include aging, certain health issues, chronic stress, and sleep deprivation. Regardless of your situation, stressors take their toll on you and cause you to feel burned out.

Life is busy. Our lifestyles include non-stop activities and commitments. If you’re experiencing poor sleep, this can also affect how you feel mentally and physically.

Symptoms of declining mental performance include:

MeRT can provide you with a mental “tune-up” to improve your quality of life, allow you to feel sharp again, and give you a fresh outlook!

“We have seen some astonishing results with MeRT in treatment of previously unchanging conditions.” – Dr. Julie Kim

“We do very detailed EEGs (electrical pictures of the brain) and as a result, we can see each patients unique neural pathways.

Our many years of experience allow us to use our FDA cleared magnetics to gently stimulate the exact right part of the brain on the exact right wavelength.

We open up the unused pathways and the brain begins to experience a resurgence.

It is like no other technology I have ever seen.“

Some of the Benefits from MeRT

The 3 Components of MeRT

MeRT, or Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy, uses a three-part protocol that measures, analyzes, and improves brain function. The three parts are:

(quantitative electroencephalogram)

This non-invasive test is also called “brain mapping.” We simply place a cap on your head to map your unique brainwaves.

(electrocardiogram)

While performing the qEEG, we also use an EKG to measure your heart’s electrical signals. This provides the most accurate results possible.

(repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation)

After analyzing your results and developing your tailored program, we place magnetic coils along your scalp to stimulate targeted brain areas.

What causes cognitive decline?

There is no singular cause for mild cognitive decline or impairment, but certain factors such as age, genetics, medical conditions, environmental factors, chronic stress, or lack of sleep can all lead to symptoms of cognitive decline.

Can I prevent cognitive decline from happening?

Cognitive decline can not always be prevented, but there are certain ways you can keep yourself mentally sharper for longer. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle through regular exercise, a balanced diet, mental stimulation, and good sleep can help reduce the risk.

What are the early warning signs of cognitive decline?

Early signs include memory lapses, difficulty concentrating, trouble finding words, confusion, and challenges with problem-solving or decision-making.

Is alcohol consumption linked to cognitive decline?

When consumed in excess, alcohol can absolutely lead to cognitive decline. Heavy drinking can damage brain cells, leading to an increased risk of conditions such as dementia.

Can cognitive decline be reversed?

Cognitive decline may not be fully reversible, but early intervention with lifestyle changes, cognitive training like MeRT, and, in some cases, medication can slow progression and improve symptoms.
