Help with PTSD

I was physically attacked fourteen years ago when I was still in college. The attacker repeatedly beat me on the head with a brick. Though I survived the incident, I was hardly prepared for the psychological problems that followed. I was misdiagnosed by my doctors and suffered even further from the side effects of different medications. I also spent years in therapy. I lost my dignity after being hospitalized several times. Because of the ineffectiveness of conventional therapy I turned to alternative modalities for help. Some gave me some relief but none lasted permanently. Finally, I found a doctor that correctly diagnosed me with PTSD. I feel that this was when healing really began.

I was skeptical about Brain State Technologies™ like most people, when I heard of it, but I tried it anyway. My mind became quieter with the first 10 sessions. Through the months that followed, I noticed subtle as well as dramatic changes in me. My chronic grief lifted. I can look back at the attack and it does not traumatize me. I no longer have the disruption of flashbacks. My feelings of fearfulness and negativity have decreased. I am capable of experiencing true happiness now. I don't have debilitating high anxiety any more. I feel safe and can handle stress at home and at work without going into a panic.

Most Importantly, I have come to the realization that I feel okay about myself - I feel mentally solid and strong. As far as I can see, these changes are permanent. Brain Training has allowed me to regain and keep my dignity while I healed from PTSD.

Four months later, I was able to return for another six sessions. With this added training, my mind has become more present and clear. The quality of my sleep has improved. I wake up feeling well-rested. I anticipate more positive changes in the months ahead. With my dignity and sense of well-being restored, I am looking forward to the future.

Thank you Dave and Diane from Brain Training of the Northwoods for your help! I am forever grateful!

Help with PTSD

From the initial assessment to the final session, your staff of trainers and administrative personnel showed a refreshing professionalism, punctuality, and positivism. All of this served to create a space where I felt safe letting go of some deeply held tension. The seizures in my hand reminded me of the tense moments of flying my A-10 attack jet during air refueling, weather formation flights, and sketchy surface attack and close air” support” missions throughout South Korea, Arizona, and Alaska. But, there was clearly a lot more stored tension than just that incurred through my military service. The feedback I received from the BST staff and the BSC equipment has given me clear benchmarks for opening and connecting with a space of rejuvenation, relaxation, and release. Your team at BST and this process of BSC put effective tools for “letting go” into my hands. You offered this experience to me as a veteran service-member, but I must thank you as a human being. I can’t express enough, my gratitude for your hospitality, encouragement, generosity, and attention to detail!

Help with Stress

I am a single mother of three, going to school, in the process of moving to California, and became completely overwhelmed with worry and indecision. After my training, I can reason on a much more even level and things just seem to come together much easier and quickly. The doubt and worry have subsided to almost nil, and I feel now that I am in command. Thank you very much.

Help With General Health

I had only eight sessions and achieved things I didn’t even expect. The changes started occuring during the very first session. After only half an hour of training I started to gain feeling in my heel which was numb for several years. I had swollen legs for a couple of years and this problem also went away after three days of training. My blood pressure went from 160-98 to 140 - 83. I also got rid of the pain in my neck which was bothering me for a long time.

Help with Sports Performance

X.X. is a world class swimmer and manager of over 150 people in a financial institution. After training for 5 sessions, she was able to beat her 30-year best time record, and two days later completed a business plan in hours that would have taken her months to complete previously. “Within the first 5 sessions, I was able to beat my own 30-year best record! The training has given me a whole new perspective.

Help With Feeling Down

Before starting sessions I was depressed and had been for nearly two years. I could not sleep, was unproductive, unmotivated and could not snap out of it after going through a very difficult divorce. Since doing sessions, I am no longer depressed, what used to take me three days to get done, I now get done in three hours. My sleep has more than doubled. I feel hopeful, I feel happy. “Things” don’t bother me, they just roll off. I don’t feel stressed by things anymore. Working with Brain State Conditioning™ has completely changed my daily quality of life. I’m so much more productive, alive, focused, hopeful and motivated.
