Breakthrough Insomnia Treatment at Brain Wellness Center
A Non-Medication Based Treatment to Fall Asleep and Stay Asleep
How Many Sleepless Nights Have You Spent Tossing and Turning?
Lying in bed, staring at the ceiling, your mind racing faster with every passing moment… the anxiety of another sleepless night creeping in. The more you try to relax, the more impossible it feels. Sound familiar?
At Brain Wellness Center, we understand that insomnia is not just a bad habit—it’s a neurological imbalance that makes it difficult for your brain to slow down, shut off, and transition into sleep. If you’re tired of another restless night and waking up exhausted, it’s time to fix the root cause of your sleep struggles.
Discover how our personalized, brain-based treatments can help you finally get the deep, restorative sleep you need!
Mind Running a Million Miles a Minute? Like a Runaway Train That Won’t Slow Down?
Your brain is supposed to switch from active processing (above 10 Hz or 10 cycles per second) to deep relaxation (below 4 Hz) before sleep can occur.
But what if this regulatory process is failing? Instead of winding down, your brain is stuck processing at high speeds, like a train without brakes.
If your brain can’t transition into a low-frequency sleep state, insomnia is inevitable. The problem isn’t a lack of effort or relaxation techniques—it’s a neurological malfunction in brainwave regulation.
At Brain Wellness Center, we use advanced, science-based treatments to restore your brain’s ability to shift into deep sleep naturally.
Tired of Counting Sheep to Fall Asleep?
You’ve tried it all—meditation, melatonin, white noise, even counting sheep—but nothing works. Falling asleep feels like a battle every single night.
The truth? Sleep isn’t something you “force” yourself to do—it’s a neurological process your brain needs to be properly primed for.
At Brain Wellness Center, we address the neurological root causes of your sleep difficulties—not just the symptoms.
Medications Leave You Foggy and Groggy the Morning After?
Prescription sleep aids don’t fix insomnia—they sedate you. Instead of restoring healthy sleep cycles, they leave you:
If your sleep medication makes you feel even worse the next day, it’s time for a real solution—one that restores your brain’s natural sleep function.
No chemicals, no sedation—just science-backed, non-invasive treatments to help your brain sleep better on its own.
One Less Sleepless Night: A Science-Backed Approach to Restorative Sleep
Millions struggle with falling asleep, staying asleep, or waking up feeling unrested. While medications may offer short-term relief, they often lead to dependence, grogginess, and disrupted sleep cycles.
Our advanced, drug-free treatments retrain the brain for natural, restorative sleep.
With our treatments, you can restore your sleep patterns, wake up refreshed, and reclaim your energy.
A Data-Driven Approach to Identifying Sleep-Related Brain Patterns

Insomnia is a sleep disorder that makes it hard to fall asleep, stay asleep, or wake feeling rested. At Brain Wellness Center, we offer advanced non-medication-based treatments to help regulate sleep patterns and restore healthy sleep cycles.
Insomnia can be caused by stress, anxiety, depression, poor sleep habits, neurological imbalances, or medical conditions. Brain Wellness Center uses qEEG brain mapping to identify neurological factors contributing to your insomnia.
While not a mental illness, insomnia is often linked to mood disorders like anxiety and depression. At Brain Wellness Center, we treat insomnia by addressing both the brain patterns and emotional contributors involved.
Insomnia can often be significantly improved or resolved with targeted treatment. At Brain Wellness Center, many patients experience long-term relief through personalized therapies such as qpTMS™, neurofeedback, and PnIR.
Chronic sleep loss can lead to difficulty concentrating, irritability, low energy, memory problems, and poor work or school performance. Brain Wellness Center focuses on restoring your brain’s natural sleep-wake rhythm.
Insomnia and anxiety often feed into each other. Anxiety can make it hard to fall asleep, and poor sleep can worsen anxiety. Brain Wellness Center treats both conditions together for better long-term results.
Yes. qEEG brain mapping at Brain Wellness Center can identify abnormal sleep-related brainwave activity, helping pinpoint the neurological causes of insomnia.
Occasionally waking is normal, but frequent or prolonged wakefulness may indicate insomnia. If you struggle with middle-of-the-night awakenings, Brain Wellness Center can help assess and treat the issue.
Yes, sleep problems can become more frequent with age. Brain Wellness Center offers care tailored for all ages, including older adults with chronic insomnia.
No. Brain Wellness Center specializes in non-drug treatments like TMS, neurofeedback, and infrared therapy, which work to retrain the brain for better sleep—without relying on sleep aids or sedatives.
At Brain Wellness Center, insomnia is diagnosed through a thorough intake process, which includes a review of sleep history, mood, stress levels, and lifestyle factors. We also use qEEG brain mapping to look at your brain’s sleep-related activity patterns.
qEEG (quantitative electroencephalogram) is a non-invasive scan that measures your brainwaves. It helps us identify the imbalances in brain activity that may be interfering with your ability to fall asleep or stay asleep.
Yes. Even on a day you’ve had rest, your brain may still show signs of disrupted sleep cycles. Brain Wellness Center uses this data to detect insomnia patterns and design targeted treatment plans.
While insomnia often coexists with anxiety or depression, it has distinct brainwave patterns. qEEG at Brain Wellness Center helps separate overlapping symptoms so we can treat the root cause effectively.
Yes. Neuropsychological testing helps assess attention, memory, and emotional regulation—all of which can be impacted by poor sleep. These insights help Brain Wellness Center customize a well-rounded treatment approach for better sleep and cognitive recovery.
qpTMS™ stands for Quantum Phased Targeted Magnetic Stimulation. It is a highly advanced and personalized form of TMS that uses brain mapping (qEEG) to treat specific areas of the brain involved in sleep regulation. Brain Wellness Center is the only clinic offering this customized approach.
qpTMS™ uses magnetic pulses targeted to areas of the brain linked to sleep-wake cycles. By calming overactive regions and supporting better brain rhythm, qpTMS™ helps patients fall asleep more easily and stay asleep longer.
No. While both use similar equipment, MeRT is a trademarked brand. Brain Wellness Center’s qpTMS™ goes further by using advanced algorithms and detailed qEEG data for deeper customization and more accurate treatment of insomnia.
Yes. qpTMS™ uses FDA-cleared TMS equipment. The custom targeting is based on brainwave data, allowing us to safely tailor treatment for insomnia without medication.
