Brain Optimizationin Scottsdale, AZ
A personalized, non-invasive brain stimulation therapy that uses your own brainwave data to restore healthier neural communication and optimize how your brain functions.
What Is MeRT?
Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy
MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) is a cutting-edge, FDA-cleared brain stimulation protocol that combines the science of quantitative EEG (qEEG) brain mapping with transcranial magnetic stimulation (TMS) — delivering a treatment tailored precisely to your brain.
Unlike traditional one-size-fits-all approaches, MeRT analyzes your unique brainwave patterns and uses gentle magnetic pulses tuned to your individual neural frequencies to encourage healthier communication between brain regions.
The result? Improved brain function, reduced symptoms, and a clearer path to feeling like yourself again.
Conditions We Treat
Who Can MeRT Help?
MeRT has shown remarkable results for clients struggling with a wide range of neurological and mental health conditions.
Traumatic Brain Injury
Concussions and TBIs disrupt normal brainwave patterns. MeRT helps restore neural communication and support recovery.
PTSD
For those carrying the weight of trauma, MeRT can help calm overactive brain regions and restore a sense of balance and safety.
Anxiety & Depression
By identifying and correcting dysregulated brainwave patterns, MeRT can provide meaningful relief from chronic anxiety and depression.
Autism Spectrum
MeRT has shown promise in improving communication, focus, and social engagement in individuals on the autism spectrum.
Sleep Disorders
Poor sleep often stems from dysregulated brain activity. MeRT targets these patterns to help restore natural, restorative sleep cycles.
Autoimmune diseases
Dementia, Parkinsons, ALS, and more! it can also help stroke clients recover faster!
Cognitive Decline
Age-related cognitive decline and early neurodegenerative concerns may benefit from MeRT’s ability to re-engage underactive brain regions.
Peak Performance
Athletes, executives, and high-performers use MeRT to sharpen focus, improve reaction time, and unlock their brain’s full potential.
What to expect
From Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy
Your MeRT journey begins with a free discovery call, followed by a quantitative EEG and EKG brain mapping session — a painless, 30-minute diagnostic that records your brain’s electrical activity and forms the foundation of your personalized protocol. It’s also a chance to understand why you have the symptoms you have. Reviewing your QEEG can be such a relief to so many clients because they understand that they didn’t cause their symptoms, their brain did!
From there, treatment runs Monday through Friday in comfortable 30 minute sessions. Most clients relax or rest during treatment and return to normal activity immediately after. There’s no sedation, no recovery time, and no guesswork.
Every 2 weeks of MeRT therapy, we repeat the QEEG to ensure your brain is changing the way we’d like and if it’s not, we can change our treatment protocol. We’re constantly keeping track of how you progress to get your brain health to the best place possible! By the time you complete your final session, you’ll have a clear picture of your progress — backed by real data, not just how you feel. The improvements are permanent unless there are underlying issues (infections, new trauma) that are slowing the brain down. We ask every client to do a 6 month follow up QEEG just to ensure we see no backsliding of benefits – because if we do, Dr Sosnowski will need to figure out what’s causing the issue. All of our clients leave with a much deeper understanding of their own brain.
Non-Invasive
No surgery, no medication, no sedation. MeRT uses gentle magnetic pulses that are completely painless and require zero downtime.
Data-Driven
Every treatment decision is guided by your qEEG brain map — real data, not guesswork. Your progress is objectively measured at every stage.
Personalized
Your brain is unique, and your treatment should be too. Every MeRT protocol is custom-built to match your individual brainwave patterns.
Frequently Asked Questions
MeRT isn’t always something people know about, we’re here to help!
Is MeRT safe?
Yes. MeRT is non-invasive, drug-free, and FDA-cleared. The magnetic pulses used are gentle and painless. Side effects are rare and typically mild, such as temporary light-headedness after a session.
How many sessions will I need?
A typical treatment course involves daily sessions (Monday through Friday) over 2-8 weeks. Most clients do 6 weeks of therapy, but not everyone needs that much! Your clinical team will guide you based on your progress mapping.
What does a session feel like?
Most clients describe it as a gentle tapping sensation on the scalp. The sessions are relaxing — many clients close their eyes and rest during treatment. There’s no sedation and no recovery time needed afterward.
Is MeRT covered by insurance?
Coverage varies by plan and provider. Our team will help you understand your options and can provide the documentation needed for any reimbursement claims. We also offer flexible payment plans to make treatment accessible.
How is MeRT different from standard TMS?
Standard TMS uses a one-size-fits-all protocol — the same frequency and target area for every client. MeRT is different because it starts with your individual qEEG brain map and tailors the stimulation frequency, location, and intensity to your unique brainwave patterns. It’s precision medicine for your brain and it’s the precision that makes the difference! TMS gives results (resolution of symptoms) in up to 30% of clients, while at MVP Medical Care with their personalized version of MeRT therapy, results are achieved in up to 90% of their clients!
Your Brain Deserves Better
If you’ve been struggling with a neurological condition, brain fog, simply not feeling like yourself, or tired of being on prescription medication for your condition that really doesn’t make you feel back to yourself — MeRT may be the missing piece. Take the first step toward optimizing your brain and reclaiming your life.
