Magnetic Resonance Therapy, MeRT
– Highly Customized
– Noninvasive
– Medication Free
– FDA-Cleared Equipment
We Analyze and Gently Stimulate Specific Areas of the Brain that are not Connecting to Improve Function.

A Treatment for a Wide Range of Neurological Conditions
Before treatment, we begin with some very sophisticated diagnostics. Once this testing is done, the results are reviewed by our top doctors and scientists who then direct the treatment plan, which is specific to each individual.The first and incredibly important steps to be taken before treatment entails diagnostics to really see what is happening in terms of which are the basis for each patient’s customized treatment plan.
By doing this first, we can detect specific areas of the brain that are not connecting as they should causing malfunctions and difficulties.
Using gentle Magnetic Stimulation, Magnetic Resonance Therapy, or MeRT, those areas can be targeted and nudged back into improved function in many cases.
While results do vary from one individual to the next, we have found that MeRT has a much-improved success rate and has shown some incredible results in a wide range of neurological conditions, experienced by many of our patients, and proven in numerous research studies.
What is it that makes MeRT so Effective and Unique?
You may wonder what is the difference between MeRT and standard TMS or what is it that makes MeRT stand above the rest. Here are some of the factors that make MeRT unique and extremely effective.
Treatment is Tailored to each Individual:
Each patient’s brain scans and symptoms are the basis of the treatment protocols. Since no two brains are the same it follows that no two treatments are either.
There are no aspects of treatment that are invasive:
MeRT is safe as only magnetic waves are used to gently nurture brain activity and connectivity.
Treatment is completely medication-free:
There are no drugs or anesthetics used with MeRT.
FDA-Clearance:
While all of the equipment used for MeRT is FDA-cleared, treatment for certain conditions is also FDA-approved.

Our Brain Treatment Glenview Medical Director, Dr. Mina Paiman
Dr. Mina Paiman is board certified in Family Medicine with a focus on Developmental Delays/Disorders including Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD). She has helped many families learn to identify their children not meeting milestones and emotionally support them through this process as it’s a very difficult time when it comes to coping and acceptance. This opened her heart to a community of children and parents needing compassionate education and assistance receiving adequate therapy services whether through Early Intervention, Developmental Pediatrician referrals, and diagnostic testing support. She learned the challenges these families face and continue to learn about new services where families can receive support.
She initially learned about Brain Treatment Center after learning about treatment modalities for Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) since her husband, a United States Army veteran, suffered from a TBI in Afghanistan. Dr. Paiman learned about the conditions our heroes suffer from and she learned how MeRT can drastically improve their symptoms. There, she learned how MeRT can help many conditions. She has worked with adults and children suffering from Anxiety, Depression, Postpartum Depression, COVID-19, Insomnia, and more.
Dr. Paiman is a Chicago native and resides in the NorthShore area for over 20 years. She completed her medical education at Ascension St. Mary’s serving the underserved population.
Frankie’s Father talks about his experience with MeRT
In the third week, something happened. The family was driving around sight-seeing when they realized that they were getting lost in the California desert. Mary and Frank began to argue, and right in the midst of it, the moment they had waited six years for finally came. “I remember he said a seven-word sentence basically to the effect of ‘I want you two to stop fighting.’ And it shocked me so much that I almost stopped breathing,” Frank recounts. “I looked at my wife and said ‘Do you realize what just happened? He just said a seven-word sentence.’ I had tears in my eyes, and I was happy at the same time. He was so upset that it pushed these words through.”
From there, Frankie’s progress snowballed. They returned home after only a month, but the difference between the child who arrived in California and the one who left was striking. They had taken a video of Frankie on the plane when they started the journey, “and he’s just making baby babble,” Frank says.
We have another video of him on the plane coming back. And he looks out the window and says, ‘Goodbye California, see you soon.’ This was a nonverbal kid, 30 days earlier. And his feet are flat on the ground.”
Doctors said Frankie would continue to improve even without regular MeRT albeit a bit slower. Today, he is 11 years old, verbal, and attends a public school. He tells Frank stories about times when he wanted to speak but couldn’t.

The TV show “The Doctors” features MeRT as a Treatment for Autism
As a recent feature on “The Doctors” TV show, Treatment with MeRT specifically for Autism was discussed at length. Neurologist Dr. Spencer O.

Talk to Our New Patient Coordinator for More Information
Our New Patient Coordinator is here to assist you with anything you need to know about MeRT, our protocols for treatment, fees, insurance questions, and more. She will answer any questions you have, get the details of your specific situation, and carefully explain the information you need to know to make informed decisions.
If, after speaking with her, you are interested in further exploring whether you or your loved one could benefit from MeRT, the next step would be to schedule an EEG and a consultation with our doctor.
With the EEG and testing done, the doctor can show you what is happening neurologically and what may be causing the issues. At this point, we can determine if there are benefits to be had from MeRT Treatment, and you can decide if you would like to move forward.

Life Can Be Better
With so many successful treatments of a wide range of neurological conditions, we hope you will look further into the possibilities that MeRT Treatment offers. It can bring great benefits and improve quality of life!
