It has been so nice to come to cognitive FX and be met be the staff with such warmth and understanding. We have been trough a 3 year battle with a concussion, and it is the first time we felt we been taken serious and felt like we have been listen to.
We have already seen improvement, but are looking forward to the next months/year with homework to see the real improvement coming!

Our experience here has been absolutely stellar! All of the therapists and staff seem to be having their best day ever simply in serving us. They are kind, gracious, compassionate, and caring, and yet gently push, pushing people to attain the next level of goals in health. You may have a certain amount of skepticism or trepidation, but let me assure you, the results have proven themselves. Thank you cognitive FX team.

CFX takes a well researched, all encompassing and diverse approach to head injury therapy. The steady pace, exceptional information sharing between therapists and the consistent, caring culture creates optimism and hope alongside practical usable strategies that patients can use long into the future. CFX staff are realistic about expectations and a timeline for recovery but gather enough evidence of progress from state-of-the-art technology to give patients confidence that recovery is possible. I’m very happy with my experience and recommend to others who, like me, saw no little or no improvement in my symptoms before coming and struggled to find therapy in NZ which gave me much hope.

In June of 2024, I fell on my head in our kitchen at home. Life was turned upside down for a variety of reasons, but the 5 brain bleeds from the TBI that resulted in memory loss and constant lethargy were the worst of the symptoms by far. For months I would say "I'm kind of like a goldfish, you can say anything to me and in 5 minutes your secret will be safe." If you've ever seen the movie Memento, that was basically my life. My entire existence was non-existence and when you have 4 young kids(3 under 4 at the time) it is heart wrenching when you want to be there for them… but can't.
Sometime in December I got a text reminding me of my consultation appointment with Cognitive FX, which was interesting because I didn't remember making an appointment with them nor did I even know what Cognitive FX was. I ignored the first text but then when the second came in I guess I found an email from Oct/Nov where I had found them and made the appointment. From what I can gather, my Mom had suggested looking into Cereset and after not being suitable for their program, I had done a deep dive into the interwebs to learn about them in order to find alternatives and as a result I unintentionally stumbled upon CFX's website and made the appt. After my wife and I met with Dr. Fong, we were sure that I should go there as by that point it seemed like I would never get better.
Suffice it to say, me finding CFX was nothing short of God's grace shining down on me.
While I had been able to teach myself to file certain things away in my brain to remember later, there was still no incidental learning/encoding in the slightest when I started my 2 weeks at CFX.
At some point in the first week, I heard Toshi talking to one of the other patients and he said someting to the effect of it being a “unicorn” experience to leave with a huge transformation, but continuing the workout routines at home will bring the results. I filed that away to encourage myself that what I was doing mattered, even if I wasn't "better" yet.
On the second to last day however, I woke up to a group text on my phone. One of the guys in my bible study had asked for prayer about something and a few people had responded. I got into the shower to get ready to head to the clinic and as I was washing my hair, I suddenly remembered. I remembered what Kevin had texted, I remembered who had "hearted" the text, I remembered who had responded and what they had said. For the first time in(what seemed like an eternity) 9 months a memory was incidentally encoded on my brain.
It is now 7 months since I left CFX, and while going back to work has slowed my progress, I am humbled to say that I had a unicorn experience(that's right Toshi) at CFX and am truly thankful for everyone there.
I would recommend CFX to anyone that is dealing with TBI issues that other treatments haven't worked for, but just as strongly as a first step if not financially constrained as I am a firm believer in its' efficacy. If I could have found them earlier, I would have gone there earlier, but I am grateful that I am where I am now; As a direct result of the program they've developed and the people that work at Cognitive FX.
Thank you CFX team, with the utmost of sincerity, for giving me my life back, for giving my wife her husband back & for giving my kids their father back.

I brought my teen daughter one year after her 4th concussion within one year from cheer/tumbling. She had developed autoimmune disorders, chronic infections, and functional neurological disorder with non-epileptic seizures. After dozens of doctors over the past year, it seems this is finally comprehensively getting at the root cause of all her new disorders and symptoms.
Even on the tough days, the staff was helpful at pulling her out of a seizure much sooner than I was able on my own previously. She was very committed to being at the clinic each day for the full day. She has seen improvement in her scores in tasks that were challenging at the beginning of her 2 week treatment. Symptoms are still present, but she knows she needs to be committed to do her daily home care plan for the next 3-6 months for the best results.
Staff is all friendly, understanding, and truly goes above and beyond to provide the care you need to the best of their ability.
