Chief Warrant Officer
"I went to Afghaniston and got blown up, severe damage to my head and back. I woke up in the hospital with a neuro-psych score of just 35, and thought I'm never getting out of this place. I had the CBT exercises in my cammie pocket when it happened and they brought them to me. I started doing them every day, just like we learned in class. 4 weeks later my neuro-psych score was 97 and now I'm the Plans Officer for the battalion." -
Wounded Warrior diagnosed with Traumatic Brain Injury:
“I can really feel my attention ability improving. Not only can I stay focused longer, but when my mind starts to wander I can bring it back to attention much faster.”
Corporate Vice President:
“Our daughter was diagnosed with an unusual eye disorder. She had tremendous difficulty tracking words from left to right and she was unable to consistently jump from one word to the next which obviously had a negative impact on her ability to learn to read. After two weeks practicing the MPT exercises we brought her to her checkup with the specialist. He was amazed at her progress and said “Whatever you’re doing, keep it up!”
“She was also diagnosed with ADHD which added to her learning struggles. To our surprise we watched her really come to life. She was having fun and she was able to concentrate while becoming more proficient in manipulating the games. The best part was that MPT wasn’t “therapy”. This was a little girl playing games but benefiting from having fun and not even knowing that she was strengthening those areas of deficiency. The more she played the better she did in school. Finally, we incorporated this into our bedtime routine with the whole family and found that we were all benefiting from the techniques but also it was a way to have fun communication time with all of our kids. We saw the same benefits with our two younger children who began playing with the games as well. John made a huge believer out of me and what a fun way to have fun with the whole family!”
Mother of daughter with 14 non-cancerous brain tumors:
“My daughter really struggled in school and had a measured IQ of only 70 due to the crowding from the tumors. John showed us how to practice the exercises and we saw considerable progress in her school work. I really believe in the program.”
