Is MERT Right for You?
Evaluating suitability for targeted brain therapy
Some experts suggest that at the heart of numerous mental health conditions—including depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, sleep disorders, migraines, addiction, ADD/ADHD, and autism—lies what is known as brain arrhythmia, or irregular brainwave patterns.
What is MERT ?
MERT stands as an innovative therapy designed to address a wide range of mental health conditions through the targeted stimulation of nerve cells in the brain using magnetic fields. It operates on the principle of individualization, carefully assessing your brain’s unique patterns and requirements.
This advanced approach is suitable for a wide range of conditions, including Autism, Anxiety, Depression, ADHD, and more, potentially enhancing quality of life and performance across professional, academic, and athletic fieldsThis approach allows MERT to offer a customized treatment plan tailored specifically to your needs, enhancing the efficacy of the therapy and providing a highly personalized care experience.
Key Benefit:
- Broad efficacy in mental health improvement, with patients reporting significant symptom reduction.
- Notably, Autism patients see enhanced communication and social skills, showcasing MERT’s remarkable outcomes.
- Significant improvement in sleep patterns among individuals with sleep disruptions.
More About MERT
Disruptions in brainwave activity, known as brain arrhythmias, can significantly affect our cognitive and emotional well-being. Such disruptions are observable in the brainwave patterns and are believed to contribute to a variety of neurocognitive symptoms. These arrhythmic patterns are considered by some practitioners to be underlying factors in numerous mental health conditions, including depression, anxiety, PTSD, OCD, sleep disorders, migraine, addiction, ADD/ADHD, autism, and more. The images below illustrate the disrupted waveforms typically found in these conditions, alongside the harmonized brainwave patterns that MERT aims to achieve.

How PrTMS Works: A Deeper Dive into the Process
PrTMS, or Personalized Repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, represents a significant leap in mental health treatment, merging the benefits of traditional TMS with the precision of personalized medicine.
Here’s how the process unfolds:
Initial Assessment: The journey begins with a comprehensive evaluation of your brain’s electrical activity using advanced EEG (Electroencephalogram) technology. It’s Completely free of gels and wires thanks to our Bluetooth-enabled devices. This initial step is crucial for capturing the unique patterns of your brainwaves, which dictate the tailored approach of your treatment.
Tailored Treatment Plan: Leveraging the insights gained from the EEG, our team of experts, comprising neuroscientists and clinicians, meticulously analyze your brain’s specific needs. We consider factors like brain wave frequencies and heart-brain coherence to develop a personalized protocol that targets the precise areas of your brain requiring intervention.
Precise Stimulation: With your custom treatment plan in hand, we proceed to the PrTMS sessions. A specialized magnetic coil is positioned strategically to focus on the identified areas of the brain. This coil emits gentle magnetic pulses, stimulating neural activity in a way that promotes healthier brain function. Each session is finely tuned to your brain’s specific requirements, ensuring maximum efficacy and comfort.
Ongoing Optimization: Treatment is not static; it evolves as you do. Regular assessments and adjustments to the treatment protocol ensure that your PrTMS sessions remain perfectly aligned with your progress and continuing needs.
Is MERT treatment painful?
MERT treatment is non-invasive and pain-free. Patients may feel a tapping sensation on the scalp during the session but this is generally well-tolerated.
How long does a treatment course last?
A typical MERT treatment course involves sessions five days a week, lasting about 30 minutes each, over a period of 6 to 12 weeks. The exact duration may vary based on individual response to the treatment.
Can MERT be combined with other treatments?
Yes, MERT can be integrated with other treatments, including medication and psychotherapy, to provide a comprehensive approach to mental health care. The compatibility of MERT with other treatments will be assessed during your consultation.
What improvements can I expect with MERT?
Improvements vary by individual and condition being treated. Patients often report enhanced mood, improved cognitive function, reduced anxiety or depression symptoms, and better overall well-being. The specific outcomes will depend on your unique treatment plan and response to MERT.
Understanding TMS
We offer MERT which are variations of TMS.
TMS stands for Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. It is a noninvasive and non-systemic therapy that directly stimulates brain structures associated with mental health conditions, such as depression and obsessive compulsive disorder (OCD). This is done by activating deep brain structures through the use of directed electromagnetic fields that generate excitation or inhibition of neurons deep inside the brain, to influence the brain’s natural electrical activity.
