Mobile MeRT
Are you interested in having Mobile MeRT treatment at your home or business? We can help with that!
The BrainCare Performance Center in Rancho Mirage is now offering in-home MeRT services for those who prefer to receive treatment in the comfort of their own home. We offer this service across the Western United States!
The technique is completely non-invasive, uses absolutely no medications, and uses only gentle magnetic waves to increase brain activity in areas of the brain that are specifically targeted as needing to be revitalized.

Mobile MeRT Offers an Edge to Your Most Valuable Asset: Your Executive Team
The 80/20 rule tells us that 80% gets done by the 20% doing most of the work. But there’s a price to be paid for doing all that heavy lifting. Sleep deprivation and stress negatively impact our brain’s performance and neuroplasticity. If we couple stress and sleep deprivation with moderate alcohol consumption, lack of exercise, and/or an average diet, the negative impact on the brain can be similar to the athlete who has suffered concussions. Leaders pay a price.
We know people tend to do their best and be their best when their brain has good global synchronicity. But we can only push ourselves so far. MeRT offers a way to help you regain ideal cognitive function patterns.
This translates into personal improvements like better sleep, increased motivation, greater focus, faster reflexes, and the ability to act vs. react in pressure situations.
We start with the proprietary qEEG that allows us to see the patterns in which your brain prefers to operate. Then we create a personalized protocol that gently stimulates and entrains the brain to function optimally.
MeRT Helps to Synchronize the Brain Waves
The human brain contains approximately 100 billion neurons. By electrical oscillations or brain waves, the neurons communicate with each other through pathways in the brain.
When you use certain pathways more frequently, they become stronger, and vice versa. Whenever internal or external forces disrupt regular brain activity, under-used pathways become weaker.
MeRT® uses an EEG to find these brainwave disruptions, then a personalized program of TMS to strengthen those weakened pathways.
How Does MeRT Work?
Your brain’s electrical activity, brainwaves, or thought patterns are unlike anyone else’s. That’s what makes MeRT therapy so compelling: we customize the treatment for each patient. This innovative protocol uses the combined technologies of:
Diagnostics
• qEEG (quantitative electroencephalogram) – a non-invasive procedure that involves placing electrodes along the scalp to map your brainwaves. We use this information for highly targeted rTMS treatments.
• ECG/EKG (electrocardiogram) – a similar procedure to the qEEG that measures electrical signals coming from your heart.
By measuring brain-heart coherence, we can target the rTMS therapy to be as accurate as possible.
Treatment
• rTMS (repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation) – a non-invasive procedure that uses magnetic induction coils placed along your scalp to stimulate specific areas of the brain.
The results of the qEEG and EKG tell us what is functioning normally and show us areas of dysregulation. We then use this information to create a precision treatment protocol using rTMS.
MeRT is an entirely non-surgical, non-invasive, and drug-free treatment.
The Four Steps of MeRT Treatment
By assessing the communication quality between the networks of neurons in your brain, we can home in on and gently stimulate and “wake up” those areas to improve function.
Testing & Evaluation
On your first appointment, we will perform the qEEG, also often referred to as a brain scan, and an EKG as described above. This takes about 45 minutes to an hour.
These tests are painless, easy to do, and straightforward. They are performed right in our office.
Once testing is completed, our scientists and physicians will interpret and analyze the results to determine the exact function of the brain.
Analysis
We carefully analyze the test results using a scientific and patented approach. Once the testing is completed and results evaluated, we will schedule a consultation with the Doctor to discuss the results and how these relate to symptoms being experienced.
Based on this analysis, we develop a treatment plan customized to your specific condition and schedule your assessment period of treatment.
MeRT Treatment
Once your treatment protocols are in place, you will come to therapy, five days a week, in two-week intervals. You simply sit in a comfortable chair while a highly-trained neuro-technician places a magnetic coil on your head. This device produces a low-frequency magnetic field to induce mild electrical signals in the targeted areas of the brain.
Time spent in the chair is typically 30 minutes. The stimulation occurs for 6-8 seconds every minute.
Progress Evaluation
We will monitor your progress throughout your daily treatments to confirm how you feel and track improvements. After two weeks of treatment, we will perform another qEEG and EKG to review your progress and make any needed modifications.
If there is a positive response to treatment during the assessment period, you will likely notice some symptom improvements. At that point, we will schedule treatment in two-week intervals.
Some of the Benefits of MeRT
Treatment with MeRT usually runs about six to eight weeks. Patients have experienced many benefits, including:
- Improved sleep
- Increased relaxation
- Better concentration and focus
- Improved memory and mental clarity
- Decreased pain
- Better mood
- Improved ability to cope with stress
- Increased attention span
- More Motivation
- Fewer cravings (such as drugs or alcohol)
- Improved emotional stability
- More clarity of thought
- Increased ability to adapt to change
- Improved self-confidence and self-esteem
