Conditions MeRT Can Treat
MeRT has been successfully used to treat a wide array of Neurological Conditions.
Your Brain is Unique
Your brain contains approximately 100 billion nerve cells (neurons) that communicate via brainwaves on specific pathways in the brain.
And the more often a pathway is used, the stronger it gets. But when forces—either internal or external—disrupt brain activity, these pathways can become weaker, or completely unused.
What do we mean by internal and external forces? Here are a few examples:
- Emotional trauma or high amounts of chronic or acute stress
- Trauma to the head such as a concussion
- PTSD (Post-traumatic stress disorder)
- Anxiety
- Depression or Major Depressive Disorder
- Illness or disease such as stroke or Parkinson’s Disease
- Dementia
- Developmental disorders such as Autism, ADD, and ADHD
- Sleeping disorders
There is a solution: By restoring the unused, weakened pathways, MeRT can bring balance to the brain—and your life.

Conditions We Treat With MeRT
MeRT uses the principles of TMS (Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) but first does a detailed analysis of the patient’s brainwaves and then generates a custom magnetic wave that specifically targets and stimulates the brain where it is underperforming. It is FDA-Approved for some forms of Depression and here in Carlsbad, we have seen incredible successes using MeRT with Autism, TBI Concussion, and many other neurological conditions.

The Fundamental Steps of MeRT Treatment
Your first step to determine if MeRT is the right treatment for you is to call our New Patient Coordinator. She can answer any questions you have about the treatment, protocols, cost, and payment options. Then, to explore further into MeRT as a treatment, we will set up your first two appointments for testing and consultation. Each of these appointments will last 45 minutes to an hour. After this, you will have the information you need to make an informed decision.
1. Testing
On your first appointment, we perform the qEEG and ECG/EKG. These tests are simple and painless and done right in our office. For the EEG, we place a cap on your head to measure the electrical activity in your brain and map out any areas not performing as they should. Additionally, in the EKG, we attach a simple electrode to your chest to record the heart’s electrical signals and measure the brain/heart coherence.
Once we complete the 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.
2. Consultation
Your second appointment, after your qEEG/EKG, is a one-on-one consultation. You can do this either in person or virtually from the comfort of your home. We will discuss your test results and treatment protocols, answer any questions you may have, and let you know more about what to expect during your assessment period of treatment. Should you choose to go ahead with the assessment period, the cost of the qEEG and consultation will go toward the assessment period pricing.
3. Assessment Period
If you decide to move forward with treatment, the next step is a two-week assessment period. We will perform a short course of treatment followed by a new EEG to see how you are responding. The first week of treatment will last for five days, Monday through Friday. The second week of treatment will last for four days, Monday through Thursday, followed by new testing on Friday.
We’ll then determine progress based on the new EEG results compared to the initial one done and symptom improvements.
“I’m back! My TBI turned me into someone I barely recognized. I was depressed, mean, and short-tempered. And I pushed through life filled with frustration and a deep sense of sadness that this was it. I just had to keep pushing through life with an overwhelming tiredness. I’m so glad I was wrong. I think my direct reports and family are even more thankful. This treatment changed everything, and I am forever thankful.”
– 41-year old male with TBI, Executive, Nov 2017
MeRT Patient“I’m two or three months past my last treatment, and I can honestly say my brain is in a better place than it was before. The emotional highs and lows I was living with have been stabilized. My cognition took off during that period and it hasn’t slowed down since.”
– Nick Hardwick
Retired NFL Center, Chargers“I felt like I was alone even though I was surrounded by love and care. It was just a cloud that would linger over my life every now and again. MeRT helped me better understand what was going on in my head and after a month of treatment I was grateful to be depression-free and medication-free for the first time in years.”
– MeRT patient
“For me, depression was the constant feeling of, ‘I want to quit and retreat to my home, except I already would be home. MeRT helped me shed this feeling in less than 2 weeks. I couldn’t believe I had spent so many years feeling this way!”

Testimonials
“I was offered the opportunity to get MeRT to help with the effects of the TBIs I had endured over the 21 yrs of Military Service. And I am absolutely glad I did so. I felt the positive effects of the treatment in the first 3 days. With irritability issues and sleeping issues among other things, I started sleeping through the night on day 3. And not just sleeping but sleeping hard and dreaming. So I know I was in R.E.M. sleep. It has helped me focus, feel more energetic, less irritable, more caring to others and helped with joint pain and tinnitus. ”
– Veteran
MeRT Patient“For anyone suffering from depression, anxiety, and other symptoms, I highly recommend trying MeRT. My adult son who has suffered from both problems his entire life, and has been on medication, realized a positive change after the first visit. We saw dramatic improvement after each visit. This technology is truly a magic bullet.”
– Harold H.
Father of MeRT Patient“Our little son has had great results. Every time we did MeRT we had new improvements on his attentional deficit. In his case his brain connection with speaking was affected. We did 4 sessions of 5/6 weeks and every time we notice differences, every MeRT session enabled my son to get more of his outside world. At 4.5 yrs he didn’t speak anything, now at 5.5 yrs he is speaking and counting up to 30. His attentional deficit is much better, noticeably.”

Mother of MeRT patient“My anxiety during the day has improved, now being awake I have moments of tremendous peace of mind. At night, I’m sleeping straight through and really waking up rested. I recommend you visit them and start with * Electroencephalogram * and from there they will explain the current state of their brain. Great scientific treatment! Many thanks to ALL.”
– MdC
MeRT Patient“It was absolutely terrifying to not know what was wrong with me or how to fix the problem. MeRT not only identified the deteriorated state of my brainwave activity, they restored its function… I consider the healing I experienced to be nothing short of a miracle.”
– US Army Veteran
“THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH for your help with TMS/MeRT for my PTSD symptoms! The confusion, distraction, and memory issue was greatly reduced. The treatment does wonders. And whatever you did last time had an unexpected, incredibly wonderful effect. Besides helping with my sciatic, shoulder and leg pains, I stopped taking Oxycodone. Now, while I do have some pain, I take no opiods! I manage with ibuprofen, and Tylenol. This is worth every penny. THANK YOU!

“Amazing experience, changed my life!”
