Collection: Brain Evaluation
What is a Brain Evaluation and why is it important?
Let me explain and introduce you to the work of Dr Amen. If you aren't familiar with Dr. Amen I highly recommend you look him up. He is one of the world's leading Psychiatrists with over 9 Clinics around the world. Unique to the world of Psychiatry Dr Amen strongly believes that receiving brain scans for all mental health patients should be standard practice. Psychiatry currently is the only medical field that diagnoses ONLY off of symptoms and has no requirements for any physical evaluations.
Dr Amen has collected a database of hundreds of thousands of brain scans and has done hundreds of research studies on mental health using SPECT brain scans which has provided him with significant insight into what is happening in the brain associated with specific symptoms, and how diet, medication and supplements affect each part of the brain.
Unfortunately, SPECT scans are not standard practice and therefore not covered by insurance, which means its EXPENSIVE! Here is where I come in. Through Dr Amen's research, he saw and learned patterns of symptoms that correlate with each specific part of the brain. He created a course to teach all his findings to coaches who could give these evaluations at a much lower cost. It may not be as comprehensive as a SPECT scan, but for most people, this evaluation is comprehensive enough to make significant changes and improvements to one's mental health.
