Break Free from Depression with Gentle Magnetic Stimulation
FDA Approved, Effective, Non-Invasive Treatment covered by TriCare
- No drugs or surgery
- Gentle, Non Invasive
- Long-lasting results
Did you know that gentle magnetic waves can balance out your brain and effectively treat depression? This treatment has been FDA Approved for over 10 years and helped thousands of veterans overcome depression.
Depression can be incredibly hard to deal with, especially if other treatments haven’t worked as you’d hoped they would.
But there is hope. We have had great success with MeRT® (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) for depression, even in cases where other treatments didn’t help. MeRT takes TMS to a much higher level.
MeRT uses repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation technology which is FDA-approved to treat depression.
And here’s the best news: TRICARE has been covering TMS therapy for depression since 2016, so if you have this insurance, your treatment may very well be covered.
We are dedicated to helping you recover from your depression with MeRT. Our goal is to ease your symptoms with our effective and lasting treatment and to make your journey to recovery as smooth as possible.
The experience I had at BTC was nothing short of a miracle for me. The treatment I received has completely changed my life for the better. I was able to reset my circadian rhythm and sleep through the night without medication. My nightmares became few and far between. My anxiety lessened almost immediately, and I became able to do the things I used to enjoy, like going to the gym, cooking, and reading. I became able to focus my attention again and my mood lightened a lot. My fiancé and family immediately noticed the change in me and said that it was like they had gotten their ‘old’ Sarah back.” – Army Veteran
How Does TRICARE Insurance Work?
Our TRICARE provider is Humana Military–TRICARE East, which offers three insurance levels: Prime, Reserve, and Select.
If you have a diagnosis of depression and haven’t achieved the expected results from a previous treatment, you may be eligible for this comprehensive coverage. And we have years of experience working with active-duty military, veterans, and their families.
To be eligible for TRICARE-covered treatment, you must meet these criteria:
- You have TRICARE insurance.
- You have a diagnosis of clinical depression, also called major depressive disorder.
- Other treatments haven’t worked for you, or the results haven’t been satisfactory.
- You don’t have any of the contraindications listed in the form below.

Of all my injuries, by far the worst were the ones you could not see. I had degraded to the point of not being able to leave my home because of panic attacks and severe anxiety. I could not hide from this feeling, and no medication could numb it. I told my doctor at one point I couldn’t kill myself because I have a family with young children that I am responsible for. I was living in despair and physical pain every day without reprieve — that is until I was able to get treatment. I underwent neural restorative therapy for two months with total symptom resolution. I can function again at work and can spend much-needed time with my family. I have my sense of well-being back and a clarity of thought I haven’t had in many years.” – Army Veteran
Our 4-Step Process to Treat Your Depression with MeRT
1. Testing & Evaluation
First, we perform a q-EEG (quantitative electroencephalogram) and an EKG/ECG (electrocardiogram). These tests measure your brain wave frequencies, heart rate, and brain-heart coherence.
Next, our scientific and clinical teams carefully analyze the results and determine your brain’s current state and functioning.
2. Analysis & Protocol
Our patented, scientific approach, combined with the testing data we gather, helps us to develop a highly customized treatment plan.
This treatment plan is designed to encourage healthy brain communication and function. By doing this, we can reduce your depression symptoms.
3. Delivery of Treatment
You sit in a comfortable chair while a trained technician delivers your TMS treatment. We carefully position a device on your head that produces a magnetic field to induce mild electrical currents in the targeted regions of your brain. You will feel no pain and no electrical current, just a slight tingling sensation.
4. Progress Evaluation
After about a week of treatment, we will perform an additional EEG and EKG to assess progress and make any needed modifications.
By regularly taking these tests, we can take the best and most exacting approach based on your current neurological state.
Soon after returning from deployment, I found myself having a hard time concentrating, sleeping, and remembering recent conversations or tasks. I found myself to be irritable and generally unpleasant to be around. My tinnitus was noticeably affecting my day and mood as well.
“I had little motivation to do anything, and I often found it more comforting to stay at home by myself than to go out and interact with friends or family. In general, I wasn’t the person who I normally am nor the one that I strive to be.
“I went through several doctor’s appointments to understand what was affecting my mood and general demeaner, and nothing seemed to help. I was prescribed various medications, given hearing aids and sleeping aids. I changed up my workout routines and methods to include mindfulness meditation, but to no avail. Because of my frustrations and anxiety, I found myself turning to alcohol. I was reaching a point of hopelessness and despair.
“Luckily, a friend of mine knew of BTC and told me of the benefits. Admittedly, I was skeptical, but at that point, I was willing to try anything. Little did I know, it was the exact answer that I was looking for, and the one I needed.
“My tinnitus is much, much better. I am able to concentrate for longer periods of time without distraction, and my memory has significantly improved. I have returned to enjoying the little things in life and enjoy getting out and being active again. I can now regularly sleep through the night without waking up multiple times with my heart racing… the first time that has happened in a long, long time. My spouse has noticed and thanks you as well!
“I have suggested BTC to multiple teammates who are experiencing similar symptoms that I was experiencing. I am wholly convinced that the work you guys are doing is the answer we need versus the answer we are often given through ‘traditional’ medicine. It is a true game-changer.” – Active Duty Navy

After years of working with patients in Dallas, Dr. Miller opened the Brain Treatment Center in Plano to help even more people. As a highly trained neurologist and MeRT specialist, he oversees all MeRT treatment at both clinics.
You are in excellent hands with Dr. Miller.
I was offered the opportunity to attend the BTC to help with the effects of the TBIs I had endured over 21 years of military service. I am absolutely glad I did so. I felt the positive effects of the treatment in the first 3 days. I had irritability issues and sleeping issues, among other things. I started sleeping through the night on day 3. And not just sleeping, but sleeping hard and dreaming, so I know I was in REM sleep. It has helped me focus, feel more energetic, less irritable, more caring to others and helped with joint pain and tinnitus. The staff is also very amazing and extremely professional. I highly recommend the BTC. Trust the process and you’ll have the same results as I did.” – Retired Green Beret
