Research

The MeRT℠ is a targeted treatment based on a wide array of third party research that has been published in some of the most prestigious scientific journals. Below you will find the some of the published research papers on the subjects of EEGs, rTMS, and MeRT, which built the foundation of our approach to effective treatment of various conditions related to the brain.
