BROOKSIDE INSTITUTE’S NEUROSCIENCE CENTER
CELEBRATES 1 YEAR ANNIVERSARY

NEWPORT BEACH, CA. – Brookside Institute is celebrating the one year anniversary of its NeuroScience Center.

Brookside Institute opened its NeuroScience Center in August 2007. The center is dedicated to advancing the understanding of brain function and neurophysiology by embracing innovative technology in the diagnosis and treatment of disorders and disease. It is committed to utilizing advanced research, highly trained medical personnel, and recent discoveries in science to alleviate suffering in the individual and increase awareness within the medical and treatment community.

Since opening the NeuroScience Center, Brookside Institute has expanded the neurotherapies available to Brookside Institute’s patients to include:

• Magno-EEG Resonant Therapy (MERT): An advanced form of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS), MERT is individualized for each patient based on his or her unique brainwaves (recorded by an electroencephalogram “EEG”) to deliver the perfect combination of electromagnetic resonance to bring the patient’s brainwave back into balance.
• Neurofeedback: A revolutionary non-invasive procedure that can improve symptoms of a variety of behavioral disorders, learning disabilities and mental illness. It is a form of biofeedback that presents a patient’s brainwave activity in real time using a video display technique that allows the patient to learn how to control and change his or her brainwaves to healthier “patterns” or function.
• Referenced Electro (rEEG): A patented, proprietary technology that utilizes the EEG in conjunction with a database to identify abnormal patient physiology. Appropriate medications are then selected to normalize discovered abnormalities.

T“We believe that the future in treating common mental health disorders and diseases lies in changing brain function – treating the underlying cause, not just the symptoms of the disease,” stated Dr. Yi Jin, M.D., Director of NeuroScience at Brookside Institute.

“With these new therapies, we are able to improve our patients’ quality of life,” added Dr. Trung Thai, M.D., F. A.C.G.S., Medical Director of Brookside Institute.

“I am excited about the extraordinary progress Brookside Institute has made in the past year since opening our NeuroScience Center,” stated E. Keith Owens, Director of Brookside Institute. “With the NeuroScience Center, we’ve been able to provide therapies not available at any other addiction treatment center.” For more information about Brookside Institute’s NeuroScience Center, please visit the website http://NeuroScienceCenter.BrooksideInstitute.com.
