Services
Neurotherapy
Neurotherapy uses advanced brainwave monitoring to treat conditions like anxiety, PTSD, and traumatic brain injury. Our board-certified specialists employ QEEG brain mapping and neurofeedback to help patients achieve better mental health. This non-invasive treatment option has shown effectiveness for over two decades in our practice.
Biofeedback
Biofeedback therapy helps patients gain awareness and control over physiological functions. We use specialized equipment to treat stress disorders, chronic pain, and neurological conditions. Our practitioners combine peripheral and EEG biofeedback for comprehensive treatment approaches that address both mind and body.
Craniosacral Therapy
Craniosacral therapy is a gentle hands-on treatment for central nervous system disorders. Our certified therapists use light touch techniques to relieve migraines, neck pain, and PTSD symptoms. This modality works with the cranial-sacral system to improve fluid flow and reduce pain naturally.
Functional Medicine
Functional medicine addresses root causes of chronic conditions through personalized treatment plans. Our practitioners combine traditional diagnostics with alternative approaches to treat digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, and autoimmune conditions. We focus on nutrition, lifestyle changes, and natural interventions.
Floatation Therapy
Floatation therapy provides deep relaxation through sensory deprivation tanks. This treatment helps reduce stress, improve sleep, and enhance mental clarity. Our float rooms offer a controlled environment for meditation and recovery from physical and emotional stressors.

I had a very pleasant experience today at MindSpa. The float tank was very relaxing, the facilities were exceptionally clean and private. Everything was explained to me before my float and the front desk was happy to answer any questions. I really liked that after my session I was recommended some other services to try and will be back soon to try a massage. I would highly recommend for anyone who is looking for an alternative method to heal or relax.

Just went for my first time yesterday. Very professional and inviting. Angela was super welcoming and walked me through the float process (after hooking me up with some tea) since this would be my first float. Very happy with the experience as well as the place. I'll be back and bringing my wife for another float.

I used to like this place, before the plague. It took me six phone calls and two emails to get an appointment. They no longer seem to check their messages and the only way to get a time slot is to catch the receptionist at her desk.Said receptionist booked my appointment back to back with another person and did not account for the 25 minutes it took her to turn the room over. Had they been honest about the time, I would have chosen another day. When I was forced to cancel my appointment because of the aforementioned poor time management which would have made me late for an important meeting,

I definitely recommend the clinic and services they do here, especially neurofeedback. I went to Mind Spa and worked with Dr. Rozelle two separate times over two years doing neurofeedback and numerous of other treatments at the clinic which really was a breakthrough with my healing process after a car accident and tbi that I had from the accident. I'm so glad I found this clinic and would definitely recommend to anyone going through similar things.

It is so relaxing that my dog guide is really excited when I go there. I have found the people so caring, understanding my worth and intelligence, and I love the neurofeedback. I wish everyone, regardless of income and resources could take advantage of this, especially those of us with severe disabilities. It was wonderful to meet Jennifer the other day, and I look forward to working with her. My dog does not have any biases, so I know this is a healing, comforting, and healing and welcoming place that has so many functional modalities.

I was getting back into working out and my legs were tight for days. I went and saw Rachel for acupuncture, and it was like my blood could flow through my legs again. I walked out feeling much better than when I walked in. Great experience.
