This drug-free, non-invasive technology starts with a sophisticated analysis of your brain waves to detect low-activity areas and poor connectivity.
Then we use gentle, custom-generated magnetic waves to stimulate the needed areas.
This helps your brain restore missing communication and activity.
We have seen some astonishing results.
You may not realize just what a marvel your brain is. It contains around 100 billion neurons (nerve cells) that communicate via brainwaves. This communication monitors every function and activity in your body.
Brainwaves have different frequencies and are measured in hertz (frequency) or cycles per second. When brainwaves function in sync, all is well.
But sometimes, internal or external forces can disrupt normal brainwave activity. These forces include head trauma (concussion or traumatic brain injury), PTSD (Post-traumatic Stress Disorder), depression, autism, and other developmental disorders, and many more.
Some people can function well in life despite these brainwave disruptions. However, many aren’t so lucky. They may experience debilitating symptoms that won’t resolve, even with therapy and medication.
MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) is a revolutionary treatment for restoring brainwave communication and function. It’s drug-free, non-invasive, and lasting.
MeRT treatment combines sophisticated brainwave analysis with gentle magnetic stimulation to produce some remarkable results.
MeRT, or Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy, uses a three-part protocol that measures, analyzes, and improves brain function. The three parts are:
This non-invasive test is also called “brain mapping.” We simply place a cap on your head to map your unique brainwaves.
While performing the qEEG, we also use an EKG to measure your heart’s electrical signals. This provides the most accurate results possible.
After analyzing your results and developing your tailored program, we place magnetic coils along your scalp to stimulate targeted brain areas.
Dr. Erik Won, President of Wave Neuroscience, discussed how MeRT works to restore brain balance during his appearance on the Broken Brain podcast.
“All of us, during our waking hours, have something called an alpha frequency where our brain most comfortably operates. It’s a cycle rate where we’re all somewhere between eight and 13 Hertz. And you might be, for example, an 11.4 Hertz brain. I might be an 8.9 Hertz brain. And somebody else might be a 10.3 Hertz brain. It’s just kind of where we’re born.”
“But when we get these brain images—whether it’s through the physical trauma of a blast injury, or the chemical trauma of years of drug use, or the emotional trauma of seeing a loved one pass away—we may find areas of the brain that are not cycling at the same rate as the rest of our cortex.”
“EEGs can tell us when there are abnormalities in neural networks. Then we use this FDA-cleared technology, transcranial magnetic stimulation, to navigate to the area that’s not working properly and try to stimulate it and remind it that it wants to fire at a certain frequency and a certain rate.”
Your first appointment will consist of two simple tests (a qEEG and an EKG). We perform these non-invasive tests right in our office.
Once we perform these tests, our team will carefully analyze the results. Based on this analysis, we develop a treatment plan customized to your specific condition and schedule your assessment period of treatment.
After your tests are complete and we’ve reviewed and analyzed them, you will have a one-on-one consultation. You can do this virtually from the comfort of your home. We will discuss your test results and treatment protocols, answer questions, and let you know more about what to expect during your assessment period.
The two-week assessment period is a short period of treatment. This treatment will be Monday through Friday for both weeks. On Friday of the second week, we will perform another set of tests to see how you are responding. We then determine your progress based on the new EEG results compared to the initial one, as well as symptom improvements.
If we see a positive response to treatment during the assessment period, you will have likely noticed some improvements. At that point, we will schedule additional MeRT treatment in two-week intervals.
At the end of every two weeks, we will perform a qEEG/EKG to monitor your progress. You will also have a consultation to confirm that changes are still showing on the testing.
Most conditions treated with MeRT provide noticeable and long-lasting results after four to eight weeks of treatment; however, each patient is different, and results may vary.
Results are based on strict compliance with our treatment regimens. Results may vary based on each individual and are not guaranteed.
MeRT benefits* are different for everyone but may include:
You may still have a lot of questions about whether MeRT is the right treatment for you. And our New Patient Coordinator is here to help you! She’ll take the time to listen, answer questions, explain costs, and put your mind at ease. She can also assist you in getting scheduled should you decide to move forward with treatment.
Think of it this way: Making one free call can be the first step in freeing yourself from the symptoms of your condition.
