Meet Dr. Josh

Dr. Josh has served thousands of people from all walks of life with various conditions and labels. He educates people from around the world related to the integration of brain exercise and body movement health. His first passion was the brain and how it functions. Having been labeled with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) as a kid, he understands the needs of parents and their children as they navigate the system and search for an alternative to medication. His approach involves providing kids with the right balance of three key ingredients. 1. A structured home and social life 2. The correct nutrition and supplementation 3. Specific brain stimulation.

As he grew older and entered his military service years, Dr. Josh was deeply involved in physical fitness and the study of movement as it relates to the mind-body connection. Other areas of his specialty include Post Concussion Symptoms, Migraines, Dizziness/Vertigo, Chronic pain and Athletic Performance. Outside of the office he spends many hours researching, creating, and helping people. You can find him at the dog beach or park with Meagan and Ella the therapy pup.
