Pete in Wi,

Welcome to NeuroTalk.

We have had a few try CogFX with minimal benefits. CogFX uses fMRI images to claim improvements and subjective surveys from patients to claim patient success. There has been no independent assessment of the benefits of CogFX.

It may help some in the long term. The data is just not available. The CogFX data is just too biased and hidden in methodology.

The claims to great improvements in just a week's time appears to be a stretch. Many have used cognitive, visual and vestibular therapy from other sources and not achieved such quick results.

The fMRI indicated improvements in blood flow are no better than the improvements in capillary blood flow from HBOT. But, neither protocol has connected that improved blood flow to functional improvements in a true double blind or other sound method study.

If you have the $7000 to $10,000 to burn without negatively risking other financial obligations, it might be worth a try. We would love to hear some good feedback. Some have spent similar money at the Carrick Institute that uses some of the same therapies but without the fMRI.

How are you doing ? What symptoms are you hoping to get treatment for ?

What diagnostics have you had ?
What treatments/therapies have you tried ?
