Frequently Asked Questions

The Institute for Relaxation & Well Being / Frequently Asked Questions
Do you accept insurance?

Our Institute does not accept health insurance, these plans are often limited to short-term treatment approaches designed to work out specific problems that interfere with a person’s usual level of functioning and require a clinical diagnosis.

What is Magnetic Resonance Therapy, and how does it work?

Magnetic Resonance Therapy is a fairly new form of treatment that utilizes the technology of electro-magnetic stimulation. Research on magnetic resonance therapy has shown this treatment to be effective for psychiatric and neurological conditions such as Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Autism, Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder, Depression, Anxiety, and Alzheimer’s to name a few.

Furthermore, numerous electro-magnetic stimulation devices have been FDA approved for treatment of Osteoarthritis and Rheumatoid arthritis, muscle rehabilitation, post-operative pain, muscle spasms, decreased blood flow, edema in superficial soft tissue, and sports injuries. In our device, you will comfortably sit or lay back in zero gravity orthopedic chair surrounded by electromagnetic fields created by related technology.

I suffer from post partum depression and want to discontinue the use of my prescribed anti-depressant as I would prefer alternative non-psychopharmaceutical treatment. Would MRT be effective treatment for me and can I stop the use of my prescribed medication immediately?

Magnetic Resonance Therapy has been effective in enhancing relaxation and increasing mood and therefore very helpful for depression reduction. It is not safe for you to stop abruptly your prescribed medication without proper medical monitoring. You may not stop using medication prescribed by your physician. Dr. Denkerova will be happy to consult with you medical doctor after you sign a release.

While receiving MRT and completing your sessions at The Institute for Relaxation and Well Being, you will continue your follow-up visits with your psychiatrist or neurologist who will be titrating you down from your anti-depressant medications until you stop using your prescribed medication completely.  Please DO NOT DISCONTINUE YOUR PRESCRIBED PSYCHOTROPIC MEDICATION AGAINST YOUR PSYCHIATRIST RECOMMENDATION. In addition, you may want to add psychotherapy sessions to reduce your depression symptoms.

If I come to you for MRT, psychotherapy, psychological evaluation or coaching and I need anti-depressant, anti-anxiety or anti-psychotic medication will you prescribe this medication for me?

While Dr. Denkerova has extensive knowledge of use and function of psychotropic medications, currently at the state of Florida only a physician can prescribe these to you. The Institute for Relaxation and Well Being works closely with a physician that is Board Certified in Psychiatry and Neurology and appointment or evaluation with him can be arranged in case you need psychotropic medication adjustment, titration or prescription.

If I come to you for MRT, psychotherapy, psychological evaluation or coaching and I am interested in natural supplements or vitamins supporting my brain health can you assist me with this?

Absolutely. Dr. Denkerova achieved extensive knowledge through American Academy of Anti-Aging Medicine conferences training in the latest regenerative, anti-aging, functional and metabolic medicine research. She can recommend supplements and vitamins supporting brain health that can be purchased in The Institute of Relaxation and Well Being to achieve improvement in your wellbeing.

In addition, you can schedule an appointment with one of her Wellness Ambassador Certified Nutritionist with a lifetime experience. During your initial nutritional consulting session tests for vitamin and mineral deficiencies or gluten sensitivity can be recommended to improve your wellbeing.

What happens during a normal Magnetic Resonance Therapy session?

Our Magnetic Resonance Therapy produces a balancing effect on Autonomous Nervous System (ANS) through the stimulation of the Vagus Nerve. During each treatment Your Sympathetic Nervous System (SNS – serves as freeze, fight or flight system and it is of the outmost importance in dangerous situations) function will decrease so you will not perceive danger where there isn’t one (if you suffer PTSD, Panic Attacks or Anxiety your SNS acts as if there is a danger even though there is no evidence of it) and you Parasympathetic Nervous System (PNS – rest and digest) will increase, therefore you will feel more relaxed.

In addition, an optional measure of your heart rate and heart rate variability pre-treatment, during and post-treatment will demonstrate your heart rate decreasing and heart rate variability increasing. While most sessions last 60 minutes, specialized sessions last 90 minutes.

What benefits could I see after my Magnetic Resonance Therapy session?

Of course, functional recovery is the prime reason for treatment. But, other benefits include:

  • Better sleep
  • Decreased cravings
  • Improved self-confidence and self esteem
  • Improvement in mood
  • Improvement in thought clarity
  • Increased ability to adapt to change
  • Increased attention span
  • Increased emotional stability
  • Increased focus and concentration
  • Increased quality of sleep
  • Increased motivation
  • Increased sociability
  • Reduced pain
  • Reduced symptoms of stress
Are there any side effects to Magnetic Resonance Therapy?

Based on current gathered data, no serious medical side effects resulted from the use of Magnesphere device. However, based on studies on magnetic stimulation from stronger fields on other MRT devices individuals with the following health conditions should not be administered MRT sessions: Epilepsy, Congestive Heart Failure, High Blood Pressure or Chronic Arterial Fibrillation conditions that are poorly controlled.

How soon should I see results after my Magnetic Resonance Therapy session?

Results vary by individual, but most can see a positive response after the first session, which gradually improves with each additional session. This effect is added and increases when optimal numbers of sessions are followed. For acute conditions with the goal of better ability to cope with stress six sessions within two weeks are recommended. Conditions of chronic nature require a minimum of twelve sessions as close in time as possible (daily or every other day) within first two weeks. They may also require additional session time (90 minutes) sessions. Chronic conditions such as Major Depressive Disorder or Alzheimer’s may require twenty 90 minutes sessions as close in time as possible. After completion of the initial recommended sessions, maintenance sessions 1-2 x monthly are recommended.

How long should I take part in Magnetic Resonance Therapy after seeing results?

After the initial completed recommended sessions you can come for maintenance sessions as long as you like. If you like to be committed to a healthy life style and decide to exercise and eat healthy diet you may see great results in initial two month, however if you revert to unhealthy eating habits and stop exercising you may find yourself in a place you do not like to be. Being healthy is a lasting commitment.

How long will the results of Magnetic Resonance Therapy last?

The longer time of Magnetic Resonance Therapy, the longer results typically remain. Results vary based on the individual.

I have pacemaker. Will that affect anything during Magnetic Resonance Therapy?

No. There are no contraindications or our MRT device for individuals with pacemaker.

How can you measure my HRV?

How can I measure my HRV at home?

The HaloBeat app is available for download on your iPhone/iPad. You can use a Bluetooth chest strap to take your own readings.

Can I personalize my own HRV treatments from the comfort of my home?
