Will My Health Insurance Company Cover the Cost for Services at MindSpa?

Insurance coverage varies with companies so you will need to check with your insurance provider. Many of our services require cash payment.

How Do You Support Veterans?

We are a VA approved non-VA provider, but the VA does not refer veterans to us. We build our own relationships one veteran at a time. Our unique and varied services can support veterans coping with brain trauma injuries, depression and diminished mental alertness. They include biofeedback, neurofeedback, brain music therapy, neurobics (exercises for the brain), acupuncture, cognitive longevity performance, brain-mapping, peak performance training, massage therapy, life coaching, neurowave sensory immersion, and Nexalin® treatments to relieve the underlying causes of anxiety, depression and insomnia. Many of our methods and tools are not available within the VA system. Our vision is that more VA clinicians will refer veterans to MindSpa so we can help. That is already starting to happen.

We also offer free services to veterans occasionally thanks to donations by staff, patients and clients. Everything we collect goes directly to providing services at no charge to local veterans.

How Do You Support People Coping With Various Addictions?

CenterPointe at MindSpa is a state of the art brain-based outpatient addiction treatment program supported by serious professionals. The program combines individual and group therapy with new promising technologies like neurofeedback, biofeedback and QEEG brain mapping. Many other clinical and spa services at MindSpa enhance recovery. They include acupuncture, nutritional assessment, sensory immersion therapy, far infrared sauna, massage therapy, and the use of floatation tanks to enhance relaxation and reflection.
