Leadership Team

A proven track record in the healthcare field.

James Spelts


CEO - Chief Strategic Officer

I’m thrilled and humbled to be a part of Pulse Braincare.  I have the opportunity to change the lives of our courageous and amazing patients, patients who I have a personal connection with.  My purpose within Pulse comes through my love and devotion to my wife Lauren, and my two children, Dash and Taylor Gray.  They give me direction and motivation to have a positive impact on my community and our patients.

It’s natural for me to be passionate about something like MeRT, and to help provide relief for such a unique and incredible patient population like ours.  A patient population that is looking for durable, long-term relief.  My experience comes from my history of building teams and creating successful companies that represent and support emerging and effective healthcare solutions.

Behavioral health and mental health are complex spaces to treat, the brain is a complex organ.  They encompass very unique and complex pathologies; no single patient is like the other in terms of their unique brainwave pattern.  Every patient has a unique need, and requires a one-of-a-kind plan or protocol.

MeRT is the next generation treatment modality that has the potential to crack the diverse and complex code of brain synchronization, reducing or in some cases, eliminating patient symptoms.  Pulse and MeRT address the root cause, or the pathology itself, within each patient.  This approach in itself, is a paradigm shift in the treatment of behavioral health and mental health disorders.
