MeRT Treatment Featured on “The Broken Brain” Podcast
The Broken Brain Podcast, featuring host Dhru Purohit, is a popular podcast that explores the inner workings of the brain and body.
And MeRT treatment was featured on The Broken Brain Podcast. In this episode, Dhru talks with Dr. Eric Won, President and Chief Medical Officer of Wave Neuroscience, about MeRT.
Dr. Won and Wave Neuroscience have been at the forefront of MeRT technology, and he shares some of the amazing results so far.
They discuss:
- How MeRT addresses mental health disorders and could revolutionize brain-based medicine…
- The role of MeRT in improving sleep — and what that has to do with the brain’s detoxification system…
- How MeRT can improve PTSD and traumatic brain injury outcomes — and why the rate of suicide among veterans is twice that of the general population…
- What takes place during a typical MeRT session…
- Dr. Won’s own experience using MeRT…
- And much more.
Here’s a short excerpt from this fascinating conversation:
“Functionally, what’s happening is we’re reminding the brain where it wants to be, where it’s most comfortable. It’s tapping into our natural biological mechanism.
“Mother nature engineered us as healing organisms, whether it’s putting two ends of a broken bone together, allowing it to heal, or two ends of a wound together. In this case, sometimes our brain will get stuck in a frequency that it’s not comfortable at. And for whatever reason, maybe we’re just giving it that friendly reminder to go back… and giving it that stimulation where it can move back.
“Over time, if we get EEGs every two weeks, we can start seeing these changes. And then the body does most of the work for you.
“So, we’re not trying to overpower the brain with high-power stimulus. It’s more of just a gentle reminder of where the brain needs to go, and then the body does a lot of the work for us.” – Dr. Eric Won
