Ground Breaking Technology to Improve Brain Function

What Works to Improve your Brain’s Performance… Safely & Healthfully!

By Dr. linell king

Brain FunctionAre you struggling with anxiety? Depression? Brain Fog? Sleep Issues? Or maybe you are suffering from the effects of a Traumatic Brain Injury or PTSD?

These disorders can severely affect your quality of life, your relationships with your friends and family, your performance at work, and your overall health and happiness. Most people don’t realize that these symptoms you are experiencing are typically caused by a brain wave dysfunction. Your brain creates simple electricity through an electrochemical process measured in the form of brain waves. Brain waves occur at different frequencies depending on what the brain is doing at the time. If these brain waves are out of sync, this can lead to a lot of symptoms of anxiety, depression, ADHD, sleep disturbances, and brain fog. Dr. King owner and founder of Naples Vitality wants to help people uncover the real causes of their health challenges, rather than endlessly treating and managing symptoms.

There is proven technology that has helped thousands of people overcome these brain challenges without the use of surgery, medications, or drugs. The first step is to look at the electrical function of the brain which can be done with a non-intrusive brain mapping. The brain map shows us exactly what is going on inside your brain. Through this technology, we have helped people just like YOU experience life-changing results.

What is MeRT? And How Can This Treatment Improve Your Quality of Life?
MeRT stands for Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy, a therapy that is used to treat Insomnia, Anxiety/Depression, PTSD, TBI, and a wide range of other issues that stem from brain activity imbalances like ADHD and even Autism. Naples Vitality uses gentle magnetic stimulation to enhance neurological development and help the brain to heal and open pathways that otherwise would not be accessible.

MeRT treatment starts with a QEEG (Quantitative Electroencephalogram) that uses sophisticated brain imaging to locate the areas of the brain that are not communicating. This is then used to customize a protocol of gentle magnetic waves that are created specifically for your brain. Once the protocol is created the MeRT treatments can begin. Using electromagnetic pulses can stimulate specific areas of the brain and encourage them to start communicating.

Though only approved by the FDA for Anxiety, Depression, and Obsessive Compulsive Disorder, the Department of Defense completed extensive studies on how MeRT treatment has been able to help hundreds of veterans with PTSD. It has also been featured on the TV show “The Doctors” as a form of Treatment for Many children with Autism who have experienced some miraculous results in their overall function after going through MeRT treatment. “The Doctors” interviewed neurologist Spencer O. Miller, MD, who has been utilizing this treatment, and some moms of kids with Autism give their testimonials as well.

No two brains are exactly alike; your brain’s electrical activity (brain waves) and thought patterns are unlike anyone else’s. What makes the MeRT process unique is that the treatment protocol is customized for each patient. The magnetic waves used are tailored to exact frequencies that help your brain open areas that need support.

Your brain is composed of approximately 100 billion neurons. These neurons interact with each other through brain waves, or tiny electrical oscillations, to control how your brain functions. Your neurons can be disrupted by internal or external forces, causing brain dysfunction. Brainwave speed is measured in Hertz (cycles per second), and they are divided into bands delineating slow, moderate, and fast waves.

There are four types of brain waves at the root of all our thoughts, emotions, and behaviors. By identifying where your brain waves are not properly communicating, we can help to restore optimal function.

. DELTA WAVES: Delta brainwaves are slow, loud brainwaves (low frequency and deeply penetrating, like a drumbeat). They are generated in deepest meditation and dreamless sleep. Delta waves suspend external awareness and are the source of empathy. Healing and regeneration are stimulated in this state, and that is why deep restorative sleep is so essential to the healing process.

. THETA WAVES: Theta brainwaves occur most often in sleep but are also dominant in deep meditation. Theta is our gateway to learning, memory, and intuition. In theta, our senses are withdrawn from the external world and focused on signals originating from within. It is that twilight state which we normally only experience fleetingly as we wake or drift off to sleep. In theta, we are in a dream, with vivid imagery, intuition, and information beyond our normal conscious awareness. It’s where we hold
our fears, troubled history, and nightmares.

. ALPHA WAVES: Alpha brainwaves occur during quietly flowing thoughts, but not quite a meditation. Alpha is ‘the power of now, being here, in the present. Alpha is the resting state of the brain. Alpha waves aid overall mental coordination, calmness, alertness, mind/body integration, and learning.

. BETA WAVES: Beta brainwaves dominate our normal waking state of consciousness when attention is directed toward cognitive tasks and the outside world. Beta is a ‘fast’ activity, present when we are alert, attentive, engaged in problem-solving, judgment, decision-making, or focused mental activity.

The results of the qEEG and EKG tell us what is functioning normally in your brain and show us any areas of dysregulation. We then use gentle magnetic waves to reprogram the dysfunctional electrical signals in your brain. Through Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), we stimulate the exact area of your brain where communication is poor and increase activity in that area. This can help the brain learn pathways that have never been used or abandoned or blocked by trauma. MeRT uses a qEEG/EKG to analyze and formulate treatments tailored exclusively for your unique brain pattern and dysregulation. While TMS is the means used for brain neuromodulation, its frequency and location are customized for each patient.
