Neuroplastic Recovery Therapies Research

In patients with back pain for an average of 10 years, pain decreased by 75% after eight one-hour sessions of neuroplastic recovery therapy.

After an average of nine months of long Covid, neuroplastic recovery therapy led to a 77% decrease in pain interfering with activity.

In a study in Los Angeles of older male veterans with chronic pain, 67% achieved at least 30% pain relief with neuroplastic recovery therapy.

In a study at Harvard, of people with chronic back pain, 64% became pain-free after six months of neuroplastic recovery therapy.

4 out of 10 people seen by physicians suffer from neuroplastic conditions.
