HOW IT WORKS


Brain balancing is a gentle, proprietary process that has clinically shown to reduce symptoms associated with neurological conditions that stem from imbalances in the brain. There are billions of neurons in the brain that create waves of bio electric energy. With our patented procedure we can measure the electrical activity of neurons within the brain. Then, we use our painless, low-power pulse transcranial stimulation procedure to interrupt unhealthy brain wave patterns and promote new, healthy ones. The brains response is typically fast with changes noticed in the first session or two… Our results have been impressive.

WHAT IT HELPS


Our High Performance Neurofeedback technology balances the brain, which has proven effective on a wide range of conditions. HPN “retrains” the brain and central nervous system by allowing the brain to shift from a dysfunctional state to a “reorganized” and balanced status. Conditions that improved using HPN include: 

  • Addiction
  • Autism
  • Brain Fog
  • Chronic Pain
  • Depression
  • Impulsivity
  • Irritability
  • Lyme Disease
  • Migraines
  • PTSD
  • Sleep
  • Athletic Performance
  • Blast Injuries
  • Chronic Fatigue
  • Concussions
  • Fibromyalgia
  • Insomnia
  • Lack Of Focus
  • Memory
  • Panic Attacks
  • Self Esteem
  • TBI

OUR VISION


Our vision is to develop a fund that will cover the hard costs for veterans in need of the following services and opportunities.​

  • Offer Brain Balancing Sessions 
  • Certify veterans as practitioners 
  • Purchase Brain Balancing systems to be used at veteran centers across the US 



By expanding the availability of the system we can help more veterans with their mental health issues and return them to a normal, healthy and productive life. 

BB4Vets utilizes the proprietary and patent process established by Neurogen Brain Balancing.  From it’s inception in 2018, the operators of Neurogen Brain Balancing have provided there service and support to 1000s of military veterans and first responders at no cost. The expanded goal is to increase the breathe and scope of that offering to include more veterans in more locations. The creation of BB4Vets officially allows for any / all to make donations to permit this procedure to be administered to 10,000s more across the United States and world. The impact of brain balancing has been so helpful to so many that we can continue on our mission….with your help. 

 

Please donate what you can. Our commitment is that every dollar will be used to benefit a service member to improve their mental heath and wellness. 

If you are interested in supporting our efforts and reaching our vision, kindly consider a donation.

Thank You!

Greg Gillispie

Dennis Yeatman

In 2018, Greg co-founded Neurogen Brain Balancing with the express goal of helping combat veterans who have PTSD, for free.

Master Gunnery Sergeant, Gregory L. Gillispie (Ret.), is committed to helping his fellow veterans, one brain at a time.


Master Gunnery Sergeant Gregory L. Gillispie retired after a distinguished 30-year career in the Marine Corps. The majority of Greg’s career was spent with the Marine Corps’ most elite units: Reconnaissance Battalions, Force Reconnaissance Companies, and other Special Operations Forces to include Naval Special Warfare command.


He was deployed overseas ten times with seven combat deployments in the Middle East. In 2007, Greg retired with multiple concussions, blast injuries, a Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI), and severe PTSD symptoms. Five years of traditional medical treatments and countless prescriptions were of little help, and he continued to struggle with chronic pain and many PTSD symptoms, including debilitating migraines.

 

In 2012, Greg volunteered to be patient zero in a brain study utilizing Neurogen’s HPN technology to treat veterans with TBI’s. He received ten treatments over three weeks, after which Greg’s symptoms virtually disappeared. Before and after brain scans confirmed the effectiveness of the treatments.

Inspired by his own phenomenal response, Greg dedicated himself to bringing Neurogen HPN’s life-changing technology to his fellow veterans.

Dennis Yeatman, is co-founder of Brain Balancing for Veterans. He is a Naval Academy graduate and retired as a Navy Commander after a distinguished 20-year career. 


He has an MS in Business Administration from Boston University and 40+ years of practical business experience, including Naval Logistics, Bank of America and a leading US insurance company.

 

Dennis was an immediate believer in the benefits of Neurogen Brain Balancing. Just one session significantly improved the quality of life of his son who suffered from severe concussions sustained from five years in the NFL.

 

Since 2018 with the formation of Neurogen Brain Balancing, Dennis has overseen the operational side of the business. He has been instrumental in the growth to over 15 metropolitan areas across the US, and the administration of over 10,000 sessions in the past four-years. 

Dennis is passionate about making Neurogen Brain Balancing available to veterans and first responders, across the United States, and beyond. He co-founded Brain Balancing for Veterans with Greg Gillispie in an effort to make this revolutionary, non-invasive and highly effective technology available to all veterans at no cost. With your help, we will achieve that vision. 

Frequently Asked Questions


  • 1. What is Neurogen Brain Balancing?

    Neurogen Brain Balancing helps the brain rebalance itself by optimizing the brain to function in a more balanced and healthy way. Using a state-of-the-art, patented technology called Neurogen High Performance Neurofeedback, it targets areas of the brain where imbalances are causing a variety of symptoms from lack of focus and concentration to anxiety, depression, insomnia, and PTSD. 

  • 2. What is Neurogen High Performance Neurofeedback?

    Neurogen High Performance Neurofeedback, or Neurogen HPN, uses a gentle form of brain stimulation known as Low-Intensity Pulse Transcranial Electrical Stimulation (LIP-tES) in combination with electroencephalography (EEG), a clinical tool used to measure the electrical activity of neurons within the brain.


    A more in-depth look at Neurogen HPN and the workings of the brain. The brain is a complex, sophisticated, bioelectrical system comprised of billions of neurons that control all aspects of the human experience. Every thought, sensation, movement, and emotion are brought about by the electrical firing of neurons in the brain. A single neuron firing is imperceptible with EEG, but when

    billions of them synchronously fire together, waves of bioelectric energy can be detected in the form of brain waves.


    For decades, researchers have studied brain waves, and they discovered that they are balanced and predictable, and a balanced brain produces the appropriate brain waves at the appropriate times.

    Brain imbalances occur when the brain is injured or stressed, causing a wide range of symptoms, including depression, chronic pain, ADHD, anxiety, PTSD, memory, lack of focus, and many more.


    The effectiveness of Neurogen HPN stems from its ability to interrupt unhealthy brain wave patterns and stimulate new, healthy ones. Like rebooting a computer, it stimulates the brain to reset itself

    and develop new, healthy brain wave patterns. The result is the minimization of unhealthy brain wave patterns and the symptoms associated with them.

  • 3. What should I expect in a Neurogen Brain Balancing session?

    Describe the item or answer the question so that site visitors who are interested get more information. You can emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.



  • 4. How many sessions will I need?

     The number of sessions will vary from person to person. While it may take only a few sessions to recognize any benefits, it will typically take many sessions for the

    effects to last. A typical series is 15-20 sessions for adults, while youth usually require less. Initial improvements are often temporary, but due to the cumulative nature of the sessions, the improvements last longer with each session. The good news is that results typically endure and

    improve over time.

  • 5. What are some of the benefits of Neurogen Brain Balancing?

    Benefits include improved focus and mental clarity, clearer vision, more restful sleep, increased motivation, decreased anxiety and depression, less irritability, impatience, and anger.

  • 6. Are there any side effects?

    Possible side effects or reactivity include, but are not necessarily limited to, feeling tired, lightheaded, headaches, or temporary exacerbation of a symptom. Occasionally, individuals may have periods of increased anxiety, increased irritability, or a lack of energy – these are typically short-lived while the brain adapts. If you experience any of these reactions, please tell your Neurogen Practitioner, as the sessions can be adjusted to minimize reactivity. Staying hydrated and resting may help alleviate these symptoms.

  • 7. Will I get shocked?

    No. The amount of energy is small and very safe. The EEG Amplifier puts out a tiny signal that is equivalent to about 1/100th the strength of an AA battery. The signal is less than the power of a cell phone signal and is far below anything a person can feel or detect. The Neurogen HPN System is a Class 1 FDA Registered device, 510K approved.

  • 8. Neurogen Brain Balancing is not a medical procedure.


  • 9. Neurogen Practitioners are not medical doctors.


  • 10. Neurogen HPN is not licensed by any state.
