Your brain is remarkably adaptable. Even under pressure from work, stress, or aging, it can form new connections and perform better through neuroplasticity.
At BrainCare Performance Center Carlsbad, we offer MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) to provide a data-guided cognitive boost: a non-invasive, drug-free approach designed to support clearer thinking, steadier focus, better sleep, and more resilient mood, so you have the bandwidth to do what matters.
People who benefit from a cognitive boost often notice several of the following:
MeRT adds a brain-supportive layer that can accelerate and sharpen gains by directly addressing brainwave timing and coordination.
MeRT = three parts working together:
The goal is to improve communication efficiency in key networks tied to attention, working memory, processing speed, sleep, and stress regulation.
When networks are under-coordinated, even smart, capable people feel foggy or flat. MeRT uses your own data to guide stimulation that encourages healthier synchrony (neuroplasticity). Over a series of sessions, many people report:
Results vary and aren’t guaranteed. We’ll set realistic goals and track progress together.
We complete the qEEG/EKG MeRT requirements, review your history, and answer questions.
We share your clinician report & analysis and outline a personalized stimulation plan.
Sessions run 5 days/week for 2 weeks. At each 2-week mark, we complete a MeRT re-evaluation (repeat qEEG/EKG + brief scales). If you’re progressing toward your goals, we will continue in two-week intervals until you and your clinician are satisfied with the results.
You’ll sit comfortably while a small treatment coil rests on the scalp and delivers gentle magnetic pulses. Most people describe a light tapping sensation and clicking sounds. MeRT is non-invasive and generally well-tolerated; the most common effects are temporary scalp discomfort or a mild headache, which typically ease with time.
Timelines vary. Many notice early improvements in sleep and mental clarity, followed by focus, stress tolerance, and decision-making over subsequent weeks. We monitor changes using your repeat qEEG/EKG to guide next steps.
Think of MeRT as brain-supportive. By promoting smoother coordination, it often makes sleep routines, exercise, learning, therapy, or coaching feel easier and more productive. We’re happy to coordinate with other providers (with your permission) so your efforts reinforce one another.
Adults looking for a non-invasive, drug-free approach to support performance at work, in school, on the field, or in daily life—especially if they’ve hit a plateau—may be good candidates. We’ll review your medical history and safety considerations to ensure a good fit.
“I’ve made significant progress in cognitive ability, stress tolerance, and mental clarity. I handle decisions much better and think more clearly. Conflict at home is way down, and I’m actually leading better.” — Executive after MeRT treatment
