entrainment technologies that use a pulsed

electromagnetic field as the medium, where

frequencies are sent via low-frequency

electromagnetic waveform.”

entrainment and vision therapy taps into the

neurological mechanisms which is where

the brain has plasticity and the ability to

change.” Audio-visual entrainment helps

assess brain function and provides a big-
