EEG-guided MeRT® (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) uses advanced brain mapping to personalize treatment for PTSD. Trauma can leave your nervous system on constant alert, disrupting sleep, increasing anxiety, and making it hard to feel fully present. By identifying your brain’s unique patterns, we create a treatment plan designed specifically for you.

MeRT® (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) begins with detailed EEG brain mapping.
We analyze your unique brainwave patterns to understand how trauma may be affecting areas related to stress response, sleep, mood, and emotional regulation.
From there, we create a personalized treatment protocol using gentle magnetic stimulation tailored specifically to your brain’s activity.
Treatment is typically delivered over 4–6 weeks, depending on your needs.
MeRT can be safely combined with therapy and other forms of mental health care.
Dr. Ramona Wallace is a board-certified family medicine physician and the Medical Director of Brain Treatment Michigan.
In this video, she explains how the brain’s alpha rhythm plays a critical role in helping us feel calm, focused, and mentally present.
When the alpha rhythm is functioning properly, the brain can shift into a “rest and digest” state — the peaceful, regulated state where you can think clearly without feeling on edge.
However, trauma and chronic stress can disrupt this rhythm. When alpha activity is impaired, the brain may remain stuck in fight-or-flight mode, contributing to hypervigilance, anxiety, poor sleep, and difficulty relaxing.
Dr. Wallace discusses how EEG brain mapping allows us to measure these patterns and how personalized MeRT treatment is designed to support healthier brainwave activity.
Speak with our New Patient Coordinator to review your history, current symptoms, and treatment goals. We’ll answer your questions, explain how MeRT works, and determine whether a comprehensive evaluation is appropriate.
We perform detailed quantitative EEG (qEEG) and EKG testing to evaluate your brainwave patterns and autonomic function.
This allows us to identify areas that may be stuck in heightened stress response or not communicating efficiently. The data from this assessment guides your individualized treatment plan.
Using your EEG data, we customize the stimulation location, frequency, and intensity of your treatment.
This is not a one-size-fits-all protocol. Every plan is built around how your brain is functioning.
You receive gentle, noninvasive magnetic stimulation in a comfortable outpatient setting.
Sessions are brief and well-tolerated. Many patients report improvements in sleep, emotional regulation, and overall calm as treatment progresses.
