James Otis DC, FACFN, FABCDD, DACNB
Case 1: Head Injury with Learning Difficulty
Background: 12-year-old girl with history of two concussions complained of deteriorating vision and difficulty doing math.
Intervention: At home, five minute, twice daily auditory stimulation (see below) for six weeks that consisted of 14 sequences of two pulses that are presented through headphones. The first pulse was presented on one side and second pulse on the other. Each sequence has a specified pulse interval between 40 and 1400 milliseconds.
Results: Decreased math errors, improved test scores. Ophthalmologist reported reversal of astigmatism and eliminated need for corrective support.
Case 2: Intention Tremor and Balance Difficulty
Background: 85-year-old complained of increasing intention tremor that interfered with her ability to eat and balance difficulties that necessitated the use of a cane.
Intervention: At home, five minute, twice daily auditory stimulation as described above for six weeks.
Results: Decreased tremor, ease with eating, and no need for cane when walking. Examination evidenced decreased intention tremor right and left, reduced dysmetria with visual pursuits.
Case 3: Chronic Migraine Headaches
Background: 29 years old with daily migraines, two years duration. Unable to tolerate medication. Unresponsive to acupuncture and previous treatment.
Intervention: At home, five minute, three times daily auditory stimulation as described above for four weeks.
Results: 60% reduction in headaches, reduced need for rest to prevent escalation of headaches.
Disclosure: The oscillatory phase reset therapy referenced in these presentations is a patent-pending process developed and owned by the author.
