My son Mathew who is diagnosed with Asperger Syndrome and ADHD (attention deficit hyperactivity disorder) began neurofeedback treatments in 2015 when my husband and I decided to take him off all psychiatric medications that he was on for many years, after he began having episodes of subventricular tachycardia. Although, we were never told per se by his cardiologist that his ADHD medicine caused the tachycardia, I was told that it helped awaken it.

When we took Matthew to Dr. Hargis in 2015 his first mapping showed erratic brain waves which was evident in Matthew’s behavior. At that time he suffered greatly from anxiety and inability to focus, both of which are a direct result of Asperger Syndrome and ADHD. Matthew began with 2 sessions of neurofeedback per week and one chiropractic adjustment. We also began a vitamin regiment that Dr. Hargis suggested which he felt would help Matthew. We began seeing great results, especially in his anxiety but knew that neurofeedback would be a long term investment and not a “quick fix”. With each mapping the progress was evident and so we continued treatments until now, with every so often taking a break for a couple of months. I am so happy to say that Matthew has remained off all medicine for over three years now and he’s so much more stable, healthier and better adjusted than he’s ever been.

I can’t say enough about the wonderful benefits of neurofeedback. I am irate that insurance companies do not reimburse for this life-saving therapy and rather reimburse for medications that quickly fixes the problem, but causes life threatening consequences. Thank you Dr. Hargis and all your staff for what you have done for Matthew and for all of us.

My 16 year old son was experiencing severe social anxiety that affected his attendance at school, family gatherings, and even the ability to walk into stores and restaurants. His anxiety led to panic attacks, which then ended with anger and tears. He completed 40 sessions of Neurofeedback training and the results are amazing! The office staff at Warwick Brain & Spine Therapy are so kind, warm, friendly, nurturing and fun ! They made my son feel so comfortable and he looked forward to his visit there twice a week ( as did I ) ! I highly recommend this therapy for any child with an anxiety disorder. Thanks to Dr. Hargis for offering BrainCore in our area and for making it such a pleasant experience for all of us. Miss you guys!

So incredibly grateful for Warwick Brain and Spine Therapy! Dr. Hargis and his staff are so pleasant, helpful and knowledgeable.

Both of my boys have received Neurofeedback Therapy (for two completely different reasons) and I’ve seen results in both cases! They have told me they feel a difference in themselves! Anything that makes my children’s lives even the slightest bit easier is beyond worth it!! And Neurofeedback Therapy has made both of my boys lives tremendously better !!

Thank you Dr.Hargis and the entire staff for all you have done for my boys!!

Took a Chance and Won!

I am a skeptic. But after talking to Dr. Hargus about Brain Core Therapy I decided to try it to help with my anxiety and to get off meds. After 20 sessions I can honestly say that I am more focused, sleep like a baby and haven't had any anxiety episodes. I have started decreasing my meds and feel confident about it. The reason for this is that you see your brain wave progress on paper, specifically how anxiety levels have been reduced in your brain. I have another 10 sessions to go and hope to get off my anti depressant completely. This is not to say that I will never have anxiety or stress but I believe I will be able to handle it differently now because of Brain Core Therapy and Dr. Calvin Hargus. Dr Hargus is a total professional and spends the time explaining the process to you and answers any questions every step of the way. I might add that his staff are extremely pleasant and supportive as well. Try it, it could change your life.

Dr Hargis has literally saved my life. I am a chiropractor who has relocated to the Hudson Valley from Ohio after 35 years of private practice. Along with the massive changes associated with relocation, I have divorced my wife of 44 years. I found myself in the grips of depression and isolation on the brink of suicide. Dr. Hargis, through his application of neurofeedback as well as friendly and caring demeanor has contributed largely to my navigating this turmoil filled few years. He is one of the finest Chiropractic adjusters I know, and he is my preferred Chiropractor. I recommend him unconditionally.

I have been a neurofeedback patient of Dr. Hargis for several months. I sought out neurofeedback as a treatment for my general anxiety. I had been coping with regular therapy since 2010 and it was no longer able to control my anxiety as well as it used too. At the end of 2017, I was at a point in my life where I was having weekly panic attacks and on the verge of being reliant on daily medication, something I never wanted to do. That was when my mother heard about Dr. Hargis and neurofeebdack from the mother of another patient; she told me I needed to give it a try.

And now, after a few months of Neurofeedback therapy my daily life has changed dramatically. I would say I am 85 to 90 % free of the constant anxiety I was dealing with in my work, home, and personal life. My overall outlook has changed and I truly feel better. I have better control over my anxiety then I ever did in normal talk therapy and I have not taken medication since February. I cannot put in words how much more normal I feel thanks to neurofeedback. It has been the easiest therapy I have taken part in and given me the best result. I feel like Dr. Hargis and his assistant Meryl, gave me control of my life back from my anxiety and I will be grateful forever.

Thank you Warwick Brain and Spine!

Dr. Hargis' use of neurofeedback to treat my anxiety was extremely helpful. I went from needing to increase my dose to completely going off medication as a result of the neurofeedback treatments. The treatment was easy, painless, and I felt results quite soon after starting. It feels great not to have to rely on medication in order to be free from anxiety. Thank you to Dr. Hargis and his wonderful staff for their flexibility and for making the entire process comfortable. 

My Name is Patricia and I have Traumatic Brain Injury as of August 31,2015, which was inflicted by assault.

I was seeing a therapist. Chuck Markham, out of Vernon NJ, who was very helpful and recommending DR. Calvin Hargis and Neurofeedback.I had 40 sessions of Neruofeedback and after 10, I felt as if I crawled out of a shell, then after 15, I began to drive and my crying and feeling of depression started to slowly subside and by the time I was finished it was over. My memory has improved greatly if not to almost perfect. Dr. Hargis and his staff treated me with respect and understanding ,I would highly recommend Neurofeedback to anyone with memory, depression or Traumatic brain injury.

Best Wishes

I just want to update you: After doing the neurofeedback therapy during this past winter, I went back to school and at first couldn’t tell a difference. Then as I began to get into my normal routine, I realized I was reacting differently to things that would usually trigger anxiety. I was able to concentrate significantly more in class and my short term memory increased significantly. In my academic life, I was never able to get more than a 3.1 GPA, even with accommodations that included extra time, a different room setting, and a note card to help trigger my memory. But this past semester after neurofeedback therapy, I decided not to use my accommodations and achieved a 3.5 GPA and made the deans list! And I made this GPA while taking one of the most difficult classes for me, math. I was able to memorize and understand the problems with ease, unlike ever before!

My Daughter struggles with a multitude of issues, in large Anxiety and ADHD. For years we have struggled with proper diagnosis and fighting the conventional approach. We came to Dr. Hargis with an open mind, as we were not pleased with all we had in place. Within the first several treatments, my daughters focus improved and we were able to start removing the toxic medications she once was on.

Dr. Hargis and his entire staff were very knowledgeable and understanding of personal needs from the consultation all through the treatment program. We looked forward to our visits (treatments). We highly recommend Neurofeedback Therapy to anyone of any age! The benefits and results are AWESOME! 5 stars

A year ago I had brought my son to Dr. Hargis for neurofeedback therapy related to a psychological disorder and he responded beautifully to the treatment. I had learned that Dr. Hargis was a Chiropractic Orthopedist while my son was seeing him. So when my husband continued in severe low back and leg pain following months of numerous doctors, specialists and medical tests, we returned in desperation to see Dr. Hargis.

During the initial examination he found my husband had lost his normal ankle reflex and stated that he felt my husband was suffering from a herniated disc. He then reviewed MRI's done months before and showed us a large disc herniation compressing his spinal cord and nerves, that had been totally overlooked by his doctors. Not only did Dr. Hargis, quickly and correctly identify the problem, he then got on the phone with a neurosurgical group and facilitated a prompt neurosurgical examination. My husband underwent emergency neurosurgery within 72 hours of our appointment with Dr. Hargis. Within days following surgery my husband was feeling better and after further recovery we returned to Dr. Hargis for care. With the proper spinal therapy my husband has been able to return to a nearly pain free and functioning life very quickly. Dr. Hargis' extensive knowledge of the skeletal and nervous system far exceeded every single doctor or 'specialist' we had seen.

If you know someone that suffers from debilitating pain or mental illness like anxiety, depression, OCD, bipolar disorder or anything that prevents them from enjoying a normal and happy life, go see Dr. Calvin Hargis. His knowledge of the human body. patient respect and therapeutic care are the trifecta of a good doctor and a good man. Dr. Hargis has literally saved both my husband and my son.

As you know when we started neurofeedback therapy with Bobby at age 17 he couldn't focus, was uncomfortable with others and was having severe anxiety, a condition he suffered with for many years. His panic attacks were so bad that he was unable to go to his regular school and had actually been placed in a different school for children with special needs. All this began to change as he began his bi-weekly neurofeedback therapy sessions. It is now a year later and I wanted to tell you of the astounding changes Bobby has made!

Bobby has been having an amazing year! He has not missed 1 day of school all year! His relationships are normal and under control with NO DRAMA since I'd say August ! He hangs out with his guy friends more than ever!!!! And the best part!!! He signed up for PAL basketball last night and will be playing through March . He is officially an assistant coach / player for 1 of the teams !!!! YAY!! Thought this would put smiles on your faces! Hope all is well and Merry Christmas/ Happy New Year to you all ! Miss You !

I was at first skeptical of the benefits of neurofeedback therapy, however after about a month of treatments I was able to start seeing improvements in the areas I needed them most. I am able to focus more on the tasks I am completing and I am overall much happier. The office is filled with friendly faces, and people who really want to help you.

I tried neurofeedback as a last resort for my son who is 13 years old to improve his quality of life. He is a high functioning autistic child with emotional regulation problems. Before and during neurofeedback therapy he was on medication which helped but he needed something more to help him function better so he could participate in unstructured activities with a variety of individuals/personalities. Neurofeedback therapy helped him become very close to achieving his IEP goals pertaining to emotional regulation. Because of neurofeedback therapy he is more patient and he is more successful in completing a full day of school even when other individuals annoy him. The teachers also have noticed that he is better able to verbally express himself since the neurofeedback therapy. Although my son still has a ways to go, this therapy reduced his biggest obstacles so he can now move forward and accomplish other goals.

They always display an emotional intelligence that is far above average. They are consistent in their emotional investment of patients.

THIS PROGRAM IS A GIFT... I am friend, care giver, advocate, for Michael, who had an accident, which left him with a Traumatic Brain Injury. After three years of very good traditional therapies, Michael and I found ourselves with Dr.Hargis, after reading a small article in our local paper. I cannot say enough about how this program has helped to restore Michaels memory and cognitive difficulties. He has been working with Dr.Hargis just under a year and there is more than 46% improvement already, to us, this is remarkable, and on a practical level has improved Michaels quality of life tremendously. Besides the program helping Michael to create new pathways in his brain for the ones that have been broken, we have been privileged to work along side of some of the most, thoughtful, Intelligent, kind and generous folks on the planet. Thank you all at the office of Dr. Hargis. We are very grateful Philomena and Michael

Dr Hargis is THE MOST dedicated health care professional I have ever known in my life. He is currently treating me with neurofeedback therapy for my severe anxiety. He has been extremely patient with me and my journey. I cannot say enough good things about him.

Last fall I was severely depressed, out of work, hopelessly dealing with bipolar disorder. I lost all hope of ever feeling like a normal person again. After being referred to Dr. Hargis' neuro feedback program, today I am back to full time work, no longer depressed and moving forward. The treatment has done wonders for me, more so than any medication has. I strongly recommend neurofeedback to anyone who is in a similar situation. Dr. Hargis genuinely cares for his patients and treats you as if you were his family.
