MeRT in the News
A Brain-Based, Personalized Approach for Autism Care
MeRT is a non-invasive, drug-free approach that pairs EEG brain mapping with personalized magnetic stimulation.
By identifying brain activity patterns first, care can be tailored to your child’s needs with the goal of supporting regulation, attention, and day-to-day function. Results vary, and candidacy is determined through a clinical evaluation.
Why a Personalized Approach Makes a Difference
Every brain functions differently, especially on the autism spectrum.
Unlike one-size-fits-all approaches, MeRT uses advanced diagnostics to understand each child’s unique brain activity and tailor treatment accordingly. By gently supporting communication between brain regions, MeRT aims to help improve organization, regulation, and day-to-day functioning.
Personalized Care
MeRT is customized using advanced brain diagnostics.
Drug-Free
No medications, anesthesia, or sedation required.
Physician-Guided
Treatment is overseen by trained medical professionals.
No Downtime
Return to daily activities immediately after sessions.

MeRT: A Breakthrough Autism Treatment
Personalized, Brain-Based Approach
Non-Invasive & Medication-Free
Works Alongside Existing Therapies
Built on Established Neurotechnology
Dr. Gabriel Agbanyim
As a board-certified physician who graduated from Wayne State University School of Medicine and completed his residency at Louisiana State University, Dr. Gabriel Agbanyim brings both professional excellence and deeply personal experience to his work at Novara Healthcare.
After years of practicing medicine, it was Dr. Agbanyim’s own son who ultimately led him to MeRT (Magnetic e-Resonance Therapy). Diagnosed with autism at the age of two, his son made slow progress with conventional therapies. When MeRT was introduced, everything began to change. Eye contact, speech, and emotional engagement started to emerge in ways Dr. Agbanyim had only hoped for.
Inspired by the transformation he witnessed firsthand, he immersed himself in the science and made it his mission to bring this innovative therapy to families who, like his own, are searching for answers.
