The document summarizes a presentation given by Advanced Brain Technologies to the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs about their Veteran Reset program. The program uses music-based sensory treatments to help veterans successfully reintegrate after trauma by improving stress management, relaxation, sleep, and wellness. Clinical trials showed the program significantly reduced stress and improved sleep, mental performance, and quality of life. Testimonials from veterans reported reduced PTSD symptoms, insomnia, anxiety, and improved relationships after using the program. Advanced Brain Technologies seeks to continue providing this support to veterans through a partnership with the VA.

7. THE LISTENING PROGRAM VETERAN RESET (TLPVR)
provides US military veterans with a comprehensive protocol
of music based sensory treatment to help them to
successfully reintegrate into civilian life following trauma.!
TLPVR supports stress management, relaxation, mental acuity and general wellness
through validated and structured protocols of specifically arranged, composed and
produced music which is used for 15 minute or longer periods daily, 5 days per week.!
!
It stimulates certain regions in the brain and autonomic nervous system to bring!
self-regulation processes back into balance, at the same time, production of stress
hormones is reduced and the brain’s reward system is activated to achieve more
optimal mental performance. This personalized training is provided through the
proprietary Waves multi-sensory headphone technology with simultaneous air and
bone conduction stimulation. !
!
Sleep management is also supported by TLPVR with proprietary acoustic sleep
technology (Sleep Genius) developed under a NASA grant which provides
neurosensory algorithms and other auditory stimulus embedded within specialized
acoustic music compositions to support sleep onset, maintenance and duration!
by training the brain's global sleep network for improved sleep rhythms. The!
sleep protocol is followed nightly and heard through a sleep safe headband with
embedded speakers.!

14. Veterans Voices
“Having suffered from PTSD and TBI for
nearly a half century as a result of my
combat experiences in Vietnam, I had
given up all hope that I would ever feel
normal again. Thanks to the team at
Advanced Brain Technologies and their
Veteran Reset Listening Protocols that is
no longer the case. Combat veterans
long for one thing, peace of mind along
with a quiet night’s sleep. Thank you
Advanced Brain Technologies for giving
me my life back.”!
Gary Ferguson !
Combat Veteran (Tet 67-68) !
“Having had difficulty with stress and
anxiety for over 40 years I was blown
away by the results produced by
listening to the Veteran Reset
Program. I was skeptical at first given
my preconceived notion that
something so simple could provide
me relief from my symptoms. Boy was
I wrong, just ask my wife who is finally
getting a good night’s sleep after
years of dealing with my insomnia.”!
Marty Goodrich!
Vietnam Era Veteran!
“Using The Listening Program
provided by Advanced Brain
Technologies is way beyond what I
was expecting. Little did I know that
my depression and anxiety would
become less and less. I now find that
I no longer react to stressful situations
and can remain calm and respond
later without causing an incident and
upsetting people I love. Thank you
Advanced Brain Technologies for
helping me to become more present
to my wife and children.”!

15. Professional Observations
PATIENT #1
CVA with impaired
cognition, decreased
communication, lethargy. !
After 1 week with TLP he
began speaking in
sentences again and
making eye contact. !
PATIENT #2
Parkinson’s – has impaired gait,
decreased communication,
poor posture. He was
completely non-compliant with
any formal therapy but did
complete a 20 week TLP
program for me.!
His gait improved to the point
that he could walk outside in his
yard (uneven ground) with his
cane. He was making eye
contact, posture improved and
he was initiating conversation.
This may not seem like a lot but
the result is huge. !
PATIENT #3
TBI and PTSD – this one is a Sleep
Genius result – he has not slept
through the night in 25 years
without medications. When he
consistently uses Sleep Genius he
not only sleeps without meds but
his night terrors are less frequent,
less severe and his panic attacks
during the day are also less
frequent. He has agoraphobia and
hypervigilance, he is working on
both and I believe that a healthy
sleep cycle is allowing him to
address these issues and return to
more normal functioning. !

16. Our Mission: Provide Ongoing Support for the VA
Over the last couple of years, we have provided assistance to Veterans to help ease
the effects of stress and sleep issues. As apparent from the testimonies of some of the
veterans that have used our Veteran Reset program, it works. Veterans are sleeping
better, they feel better during the day, their relationships with their spouse and families
are strengthened. They are happier.
Advanced Brain Technologies would like to continue to offer this kind of support
to our veteran community across the country on a wide scale by working within the
VA to provide the Veteran Reset program to qualified veterans through a sole-source
acquisition or negotiated contract so we can continue to make life changing
differences for our veterans that are in desperate need of help.!
