A family recently traveled to Synapse from Korea so their son could receive MeRT for Autism. Here is what they had to say after treatment:

Translated Testimonial of the Mother: This summer our child was treated at the Hawaii branch. There were many worries and difficulties, but I think it was a good thing to do. In terms of interaction, there are more and more areas where you can see positive changes. And after returning to Korea, you can sometimes see new expressions. There are still many problems to overcome, but I feel much more comfortable compared to before treatment. Even the slightest changes mean a lot to children and their families, so I recommend that you receive them with a little more relaxed mind rather than expectations that may be too grand. Thanks again to therapist kyanna for always being kind and giving us the best despite our lack of communication :-)

And his sister's testimonial:
We did Mert at the Hawaii center with my brother who has autism. It was not much easy to try this treatment in another country but I think it’s worth it. There are some positive changes with his interaction and more new benefits have occured even after coming back to Korea. We still have many other problems to go through but he looks more calm and comfortable compared to before. Thanks a lot again for Dr.Yim and Kyanna technician who gave us all her best and for always being nice even we have language barrier :-)

Anxiety is the #1 mental health condition in the United States.

Children and teens are certainly affected as well, especially with the stress of the pandemic and being pulled out of school away from their peers. Young people's anxiety symptoms may manifest differently than in an adult, so it's important to know what to look for.

Dr. Gregory Yim has brought MeRT, or magnetic e-resonance therapy, to Hawai'i. This treatment has shown effective results for those suffering from anxiety and it's drug-free and long-lasting.

So Young, the mother of a child with ASD, wrote us the kindest, heart-warming testimonial of how MeRT treatment changed her son's life! It is SO rewarding as a physician and medical clinic to know that we have been able to help a child! Thank you, Ms. Young!! 😍🙏🤩

"In the early phase of treatment, even though he slept, he didn't sleep very deeply (didn't sleep 9-10 hours deeply). After we came to Synapse, he started sleeping 9, 10, and even 11 hours a night.

After he stopped taking his medications, he didn’t experience any side effects even though he did experience side effects due to the medications. If it wasn’t for this treatment with Synapse, I don’t think this would’ve been possible.

The way he speaks even changed after starting treatment. He puts more emphasis and emotion into the way he speaks compared to before the treatment. It became more natural for him to use more emphasis and emotion in the way he speaks rather than being monotone. He can even multi-task in a way where I talk to my child and the child is doing something else at the same time after the treatment. This wasn’t possible before.

He is able to be more playful with children his own age and be more involved in his group compared to before. Before, he wasn’t able to understand when a certain thing is appropriate to do at a certain time. For example, he really wanted to do something at this moment but couldn’t comprehend why he couldn’t do it even though it was inappropriate to do so at that time. This issue has been overcome.

Before he didn’t want any material items but now he emphasizes more that he really wants something. The biggest thing I have noticed is my child’s ability to generate more emotion with everything.

As for eating, he has become more open to eating compared to before. Before, he would cause a fit when trying to be fed by me. Now, he is enjoying eating food by himself. His favorite food is ketchup. I never imagined him to change this much!

I recommend other people to consider this treatment because I never imagined how much it would improve my son's life and how effective it would be. Doing this treatment was my last option for my child and it seemed to have worked to a great extent."
OUR HEARTS ARE FULL! Thank you for trusting us to treat your sweet son! 🥰

Another wonderful testimony from a mom of a child with autism! Thanks so much for taking the time to tell your story! We are so happy that your daughter has seen such good results! 🤩🥳

"As a mother of an autistic non-verbal 6-year-old daughter, we went into MeRT not expecting much change. Dr. Gregory Yim and the staff have exceeded my expectations!

After our 6-week treatment with Hope and her kind patience with my daughter, we came out more positive than could be imagined!
My daughter has become more focused in school and at home.

For the first time, she actually called her dad, "Dad," which she has never said before. Her aggression has drastically decreased. I'd always be bruised from her pinching, biting, and scratching and that has altogether stopped. Mahalo nui loa Dr. Yim and Staff!" - Annie R.

As a provider, it is always extremely rewarding to know that we have been able to help someone improve and have a better quality of life. Chris came to us with PTSD, and wrote the following testimony:

"After just about every conventional treatment failed to treat my PTSD symptoms, Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy at Synapse Hawaii proved to be totally transformative for me.

It significantly reduced my anxiety and depression, greatly improved the quality of my sleep, and had a lasting positive impact on my mood - truly remarkable considering it's non-invasive, painless, and does not involve the use of any drugs.

Dr. Yim patiently guided me through the science and helped me at every stage to optimize the treatment protocols for my specific condition and symptoms, while the MeRT technicians were always gentle, supportive, and knowledgeable. I cannot recommend MeRT at Synapse Hawaii enough to anyone, like me, who has struggled with treatment-resistant PTSD. Mahalo, Synapse Hawaii!" 🤩

"Are you having trouble with your child getting into trouble at school? Or having school administrators ask you if you've had an assessment of your child? Let me tell you, Dr. Yim and his staff saved our family! If we didn't stumble on Synapse Hawaii, we would still be receiving daily behavior updates with no clue what to do.

Going through the therapy has been a game-changer! Rather than having to call my son 10 times before I got a response, now he answers by the first time. This has truly been life-changing and a blessing. Thank you, Dr. Yim, Audrey, Hope, Mel, and Shirley! You guys are miracle workers! Thanks!" 😁

Antidepressants and therapy are important tools to battle depression and anxiety, and they can be life-saving.

Yet, antidepressants aren’t always the answer, particularly when a person doesn’t respond to one medication and needs to try others. Many people have to try several different antidepressants to find the one that works. And others don’t get results, despite trying many combinations of antidepressants. Then there are the common side effects of these drugs, which can be incredibly difficult to deal with on their own.

Dr. Gregory Yim, Neurologist, has brought a state-of-the-art treatment called MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy) to Hawaii. This treatment is non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical and has long lasting results.
