Nicole D'Aquanni Bonilla

★★★★★

I was in a car accident with trauma to the brain. I had to do physical therapy and after a brain MRI, cognitive brain therapy. I was not only in the bottom levels of memory, response, etc. but I also was depressed, irritated and in a place, I had never been. This left me very lost. I didn’t think this therapy would truly help. Boy, was I wrong. I am not 100 percent but it has turned my life back around. The staff was outstanding from the friendly hellos, & scheduling at the front desk, to the amazing therapist, Brian & Alex, who truly pushed me to learn how to manage my tasks and get better. I was very unhappy walking in and I am still a work in progress but walking out on the last day, I feel like I can manage and continue to learn and improve. Very impressed and happy that this definitely helps improve if you do the work. Thank you.

Gilbert Spigelman

★★★★★

I initially hesitated doing to them for therapy because of the distance from my home. All I can say is that I’m glad I made the sacrifice. They moved things around to accommodate my schedule. Dr. Huseboe personally gave me a tour of the facility, which has amazing aesthetics.
Now let me get to the actual therapy. I’m very hard on myself and expect to know/learn everything immediately. The first week was rough because I found things to be difficult. My therapist, Alex, told me to be patient. Everyone goes through it. Fast forward to the end and my wife and I were amazed with the results. Alex made the entire process fun. I’m grateful for his flexibility in his schedule and willingness to do what it took to get me through the entire process.

I must say, don’t only do this if you’re in an accident. As we get older, we all use less of our brain. The treatment helped my daily life.
Thanks again to the staff.

Hannah Goodman

★★★★★

I came to for help with recovering from a major concussion. After a year of therapies, I still had cognitive problems- couldn’t remember numbers, had trouble multitasking (a big issue for a teacher!), keeping track of time, and was struggling with doing online courses required for my job. And even after a good day I was utterly exhausted.

After 3 months of work I am thinking clearly again, easily handling the things like numbers and time and multitasking that were so difficult. Last week I did two hours of work for an online course, without feeling any strain at all.

The staff are terrific. They tailor the activities for each person’s needs and abilities. And while the activities are challenging, they are fun. The staff keeps the atmosphere light and pleasant, and they celebrate every improvement. They meticulously track each patient’s progress. When you’re working hard at a difficult exercise and a staff member tells you how much faster you are doing it compared to when you did the exercise last time…: it’s very encouraging.

They patiently and expertly helped me regain skills that I thought I had lost forever. If you have problems related to brain injury, please do yourself a favor and ask for Dr. Lisa, Alex, Brian or Chauntal. These folks are truly amazing

Mika Sanchez

★★★★★

I initially came here for help with a head injury that gave me brain fog and heavily impacted memory. After their consecutive care and treatment, I am so happy to say that my cognitive health has improved immensely.

My alpha-numerical memory, reaction-time, information retention, etc. etc. are beyond what they were prior to treatment. I only wish I could keep attending and keep improving.

A special shout out and thanks to Ophir and Alex for their devoted care, attention, patience, and endurance to keep pushing your limits. I will always recommend them and I hope more facilities like this open up!

Amber Bost

★★★★★

First up, music through bone conduction while listening to facts and jumping on your trampoline and performing cues from the instructor. Next up, jump (not figuratively!) On your balance board station and start your game of planning (Tetris or bubble popping are fun!). Wobble this way or that way according to the directions given! Finally, enter the reaction game room. Pick your tower and let the games begin. Sounds with a high pitch are high up on the towers while the low-pitched ones are lower. End your session with a glass of drinkable air (moisture is pulled out of the surrounding air to create water!).

This facility works in conjunction with Chamber Fitness for both athletes, brain injuries and cognitive disabilities. The facilitators are awesome and the approach is fun. Some students even use it as a means to study better and can opt to do homework while participating.

They do accept most insurance plans, you just need a referral.

Michael LaFroscia

Sports Performance

Your Body Can Only Perform as Fast as Your Brain

Athletes spend countless hours improving strength, speed, endurance, flexibility, and technique. Yet every movement begins in one place — the brain. Whether it’s tracking a fast-moving ball, reacting to an opponent, maintaining balance under pressure, making split-second decisions, or staying mentally composed during competition, the brain serves as the command center for athletic performance. The difference between good and great is often measured in milliseconds.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Elite athletes don’t simply have stronger muscles. They often have faster communication between brain networks responsible for:

  • Reaction time
  • Visual processing
  • Decision-making
  • Balance
  • Coordination
  • Focus
  • Emotional control
  • Motor planning

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program combines:

  • Reaction-time training
  • Visual tracking exercises
  • Balance training
  • Multisensory learning
  • Cognitive processing challenges
  • Decision-making drills
  • Emotional regulation techniques
  • Dual-task performance activities

Potential Benefits

  • Faster reaction time
  • Improved focus
  • Better hand-eye coordination
  • Enhanced balance
  • Faster decision making
  • Improved game awareness
  • Better emotional control under pressure
  • Increased mental endurance
OUR GOAL

To help athletes train the most important performance organ in the body — the BRAIN.

Every great play begins in the brain.

Executive Performance

Peak Performance Starts Above the Neck

Executives are expected to make high-level decisions, solve complex problems, manage stress, communicate effectively, and maintain focus for hours at a time. Yet few professionals actively train the organ responsible for all of those abilities. Just as elite athletes train for physical performance, executives can train for cognitive performance.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Leadership places enormous demands on the brain. Every day executives rely on:

  • Strategic thinking
  • Problem solving
  • Memory
  • Focus
  • Emotional intelligence
  • Decision making
  • Cognitive flexibility
  • Stress management

The Hidden Cost of Mental Fatigue

Many executives notice difficulty concentrating, mental fatigue, slower recall, reduced productivity, increased stress, decision fatigue, difficulty multitasking, and reduced creativity. These changes are often viewed as normal consequences of success. They don’t have to be.

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program combines:

  • Advanced cognitive training
  • Balance and coordination activities
  • Multisensory learning
  • Attention and focus exercises
  • Visual processing tasks
  • Emotional regulation techniques
  • Brain endurance training

Potential Benefits

  • Sharper focus
  • Faster decision making
  • Improved productivity
  • Better memory
  • Greater mental stamina
  • Enhanced creativity
  • Improved stress resilience
  • Stronger executive function
OUR GOAL

To help leaders think clearly, perform consistently, and maintain peak cognitive function throughout their careers.

Your most important business asset is your brain.

Student Performance

Learning Faster Starts With a Better Performing Brain

Students today face more mental demands than ever before. School requires constant attention, memory, processing speed, organization, focus, emotional regulation, and the ability to absorb large amounts of information quickly. Many students work harder and harder, yet continue struggling because they are trying to learn with an overloaded brain. The goal isn’t simply studying more. The goal is creating a brain that learns more efficiently.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Learning requires multiple brain systems working together simultaneously. When these systems become overwhelmed, learning becomes slower and more frustrating.

Why Some Students Learn Faster

Successful students often possess stronger cognitive skills, including:

  • Attention
  • Working memory
  • Processing speed
  • Cognitive flexibility
  • Executive function
  • Emotional regulation

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program challenges multiple learning systems simultaneously through:

  • Cognitive exercises
  • Multisensory learning
  • Balance training
  • Visual processing activities
  • Attention training
  • Memory challenges
  • Emotional regulation strategies
  • Movement-based learning

Potential Benefits

  • Improved focus
  • Better memory
  • Faster processing speed
  • Increased concentration
  • Improved test performance
  • Better organization
  • Reduced mental fatigue
  • Greater confidence
OUR GOAL

To help students build stronger learning skills, improve academic performance, and develop a brain that is prepared for lifelong success.

Don’t Just Study Harder. Train Your Brain Smarter.

Concussion / mTBI

When the Brain’s Communication System Gets Shaken

A concussion is often called a “mild” traumatic brain injury, but there is nothing mild about the symptoms it can create. A concussion occurs when a blow, bump, fall, motor vehicle accident, workplace injury, sports collision, or sudden whiplash movement causes the brain to move rapidly inside the skull. Even though the injury cannot appear on a standard CT scan or MRI, the brain’s communication system can be disrupted. Many people are told their scans are normal, yet they continue to struggle with headaches, brain fog, memory problems, dizziness, fatigue, anxiety, sleep disturbances, and difficulty concentrating.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Think of your brain as a city filled with highways carrying information. After a concussion, those highways become congested. Messages still travel, but they move more slowly and require significantly more energy. As a result, everyday activities such as working, driving, making decisions, reading, exercising, or tolerating noise can become exhausting.

Common Symptoms

  • Brain fog
  • Memory problems
  • Slower processing speed
  • Headaches
  • Dizziness
  • Balance difficulties
  • Light and noise sensitivity
  • Anxiety and irritability
  • Mental fatigue

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program (CCT®) is designed to stimulate neuroplasticity — the brain’s ability to create new connections and strengthen and repair existing ones. Each 90-minute session combines:

  • Cognitive training
  • Balance training
  • Visual and oculomotor exercises
  • Sensory integration
  • Multisensory learning
  • Emotional regulation strategies
OUR GOAL

Help the brain communicate more efficiently, improve cognitive endurance, reduce overload, and support a successful return to work, family life, exercise, and daily activities.

Your Brain Isn’t Broken. It’s Trying to Reconnect.

Stroke Recovery

When Blood Flow to the Brain Is Interrupted

A stroke occurs when blood flow to part of the brain is blocked or when a blood vessel ruptures. Without adequate oxygen and nutrients, brain cells can become damaged. Depending on the area affected, a stroke can impact movement, balance, speech, memory, attention, emotional regulation, problem-solving, and processing speed. Recovery often continues long after the initial medical event.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Imagine a major highway suddenly closing. Traffic backs up, alternate routes become overloaded, and reaching certain destinations becomes difficult. The brain faces a similar challenge after a stroke. Areas that once performed certain functions can no longer work efficiently, requiring other brain networks to help compensate.

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The brain retains the ability to adapt and reorganize throughout life. The CCT® Program is designed to challenge multiple brain systems simultaneously through:

  • Cognitive exercises
  • Balance activities
  • Visual processing tasks
  • Motor planning activities
  • Multisensory stimulation
  • Emotional regulation training
OUR GOAL

To help improve cognitive performance, confidence, endurance, balance, and overall quality of life after stroke.

The Brain Can Find New Routes.

COVID Brain Fog

When the Infection Is Gone but the Symptoms Remain

Many people recover from COVID-19 only to find that their thinking never fully returns to normal. Months and years after the infection has been resolved, they can continue experiencing brain fog, difficulty concentrating, memory problems, mental fatigue, slower processing speed, reduced productivity, and word-finding difficulties. These symptoms are real and can significantly affect work, family life, and daily functioning.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Researchers believe COVID-related cognitive symptoms can involve inflammation, changes in blood flow, immune system activation, nervous system dysfunction, and disruptions in brain network efficiency. Many patients describe feeling as though their brain is “stuck in a fog.”

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program is designed to activate multiple brain systems at once through:

  • Cognitive challenges
  • Visual processing exercises
  • Balance activities
  • Multisensory learning
  • Attention training
  • Emotional regulation techniques
OUR GOAL

To help individuals regain clarity, confidence, mental stamina, and cognitive performance.

The Virus Left. The Brain Fog Stayed.

Anoxic / Hypoxic Brain Injury

When the Brain Doesn’t Receive Enough Oxygen

The brain requires a constant supply of oxygen to function properly. Anoxic brain injury occurs when oxygen is completely interrupted. Hypoxic brain injury occurs when oxygen levels are significantly reduced. Even brief oxygen deprivation can affect memory, attention, judgment, processing speed, and executive function.

These injuries can result from:

  • Cardiac arrest
  • Drowning incidents
  • Choking events
  • Respiratory failure
  • Carbon monoxide exposure
  • Surgical complications

What Happens Inside the Brain?

The brain is one of the most energy-demanding organs in the body. Without oxygen, brain cells struggle to produce the energy required for communication. Some networks can become less efficient, while others attempt to compensate.

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program is designed to stimulate brain activity through structured challenges that engage:

  • Attention
  • Memory
  • Balance
  • Visual processing
  • Motor coordination
  • Emotional regulation
OUR GOAL

To help improve functional performance, cognitive endurance, confidence, and independence.

When Oxygen Stops, Brain Function Changes.

Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI)

When Memory Changes Are More Than Normal Aging

Most people occasionally forget a name, misplace their keys, or walk into a room and forget why they went there. Mild Cognitive Impairment (MCI) occurs when changes in memory, attention, processing speed, or thinking abilities become more noticeable than expected for normal aging, yet are not severe enough to interfere significantly with daily independence. Individuals with MCI often recognize that something feels different. They can find themselves forgetting appointments, struggling to recall conversations, taking longer to complete familiar tasks, or having difficulty finding the right words.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

As we age, the brain naturally undergoes changes. However, in MCI, some brain networks become less efficient and communication between brain regions can begin to slow. Think of it as a city where some roads are becoming narrower and traffic is starting to back up. The good news is that the brain retains the ability to adapt throughout life — this ability is called neuroplasticity.

Common Symptoms

  • Forgetting recent conversations
  • Misplacing items more frequently
  • Difficulty finding words
  • Reduced attention and focus
  • Slower processing speed
  • Difficulty multitasking
  • Increased mental fatigue
  • Feeling less mentally sharp

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program is designed to challenge multiple brain systems simultaneously. Each session combines:

  • Cognitive exercises
  • Balance training
  • Visual processing activities
  • Multisensory learning
  • Reaction-time training
  • Emotional regulation techniques
  • Movement-based brain stimulation

Why Cognitive Reserve Matters

Think of cognitive reserve as having extra roads available when traffic becomes heavy. The more pathways the brain has available, the better it can adapt to aging and neurological challenges. Building cognitive reserve can help support memory, attention, processing speed, problem solving, daily functioning, and long-term brain health.

OUR GOAL

To help individuals maintain independence, improve cognitive performance, strengthen cognitive reserve, and support healthy brain aging.

Aging Is Inevitable. Cognitive Decline Is Not.

Balance Issues

When the World Doesn’t Feel Steady

Balance problems can make everyday activities challenging and sometimes frightening. Many people describe feeling unsteady, off-balance, dizzy, lightheaded, or uncertain when walking. Others can notice increased falls, difficulty navigating crowds, trouble walking on uneven surfaces, or feeling uncomfortable when turning their head quickly. Balance problems can occur at any age and often involve much more than the ears.

What Happens Inside the Brain?

Balance is controlled by several systems working together: the eyes (which provide information about where you are in space), the inner ear (which detects movement and position changes), the body (sensors in muscles and joints), and the brain (which acts as the control center integrating all three systems). When communication between these systems becomes disrupted, balance can suffer.

Common Causes of Balance Problems

  • Concussion
  • Stroke
  • Vestibular disorders
  • Aging
  • Neurological conditions
  • Inner ear dysfunction
  • COVID-related neurological changes
  • Medication side effects
  • Deconditioning

Common Symptoms

  • Feeling unsteady
  • Dizziness
  • Increased falls
  • Motion sensitivity
  • Difficulty walking in crowds
  • Difficulty walking in the dark
  • Trouble turning quickly
  • Fear of falling
  • Reduced confidence

How The Cognitive Circuit Training® Program Can Help

The CCT® Program incorporates balance training into a comprehensive neuroplasticity-based program. Patients can participate in:

  • Dynamic balance activities
  • Visual tracking exercises
  • Vestibular stimulation
  • Cognitive tasks performed during movement
  • Sensory integration activities
  • Reaction-time training
  • Dual-task exercises
OUR GOAL

To help individuals move more confidently, reduce fall risk, improve stability, and regain independence.

Balance Doesn’t Start in the Feet. It Starts in the Brain.
