Talk Highlights Mental Health, Autism Awareness, and Veteran Support

Miami, FL — Ultimate Brain Health is proud to announce it will open its Miami location on Wednesday, April 16th, with a special presentation by Dr. Kevin T. Murphy, the pioneering physician behind the groundbreaking, scientifically proven PrTMS ® brain treatment.

PrTMS (Personalized repetitive Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation) is an FDA-approved, non-invasive, drug-free therapy that uses MRI technology and brainwave data to personalize treatment and restore neurological balance. Attending virtually, Dr. Murphy will demonstrate how this tailored approach improves focus, memory, sleep, and emotional regulation in both children and adults—and how it has helped veterans, professional athletes, and even his autistic son.

“Many conventional treatments only manage symptoms,” says Dr. Murphy. “PrTMS® focuses on correcting the brainwave disruptions at the root of those symptoms.”

Timed to align with Autism Acceptance Month (April) and Mental Health Awareness Month (May), the presentation aims to spotlight a new era of mental wellness, particularly for those struggling with conditions such as anxiety, depression, brain fog, PTSD, migraines, OCD, and autism.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), approximately 1 in 36 children in the U.S. are diagnosed with Autism Spectrum Condition (ASC). Approximately 44% of the ASC population respond to PrTMS treatment.

Patients and parents of patients are available via Zoom for interviews associated with Autism awareness. Please call to arrange: 786-745-8152

With its innovative, customized approach, PrTMS® offers new hope, especially for those who have not found success with traditional therapies. Veterans and active-duty military covered by Tricare are especially encouraged to attend.

Attendees may take advantage of a complimentary EEG that day and find out what’s going on inside their mind in real time. Join us for this transformative afternoon and discover how improving your brain health can change everything.

The Blue Angels have been enthralling spectators across the country and around the globe for more than 75 years. Now, IMAX Entertainment proudly presents a thrilling new abridged version of the documentary The Blue Angels taking audiences soaring with the Navy’s elite Flight Demonstration Squadron as never before. Opening January 17 at the AutoNation® IMAX® 3D Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science, the Filmed For IMAX® immersive footage puts viewers directly into the cockpit for a firsthand view of the Blue Angels’ precision flying, while the aerial shots deliver a spectacular showcase of the breathtaking maneuvers that have made them the world’s premier jet team.
The Blue Angels also takes audiences behind-the-scenes for a revealing, in-depth look at what it takes to become a Blue Angel – from the careful selection process to the challenging training regimen, and on through the demanding eight-month show season.
The filmmakers behind The Blue Angels were granted unprecedented access – on the ground and in the air – to invite audiences along, from the first days of rigorous training through to the final show and the passing of the torch to a new team. But even as the documentary lifts the veil of the Blue Angels mystique, it only magnifies the magic.
The film is a fitting tribute to the extraordinary teamwork, passion and pride of the hundreds of outstanding men and women of the Navy and Marine Corps who have had the honor to serve in the Blue Angels squadron…past and present.
The Blue Angels was directed by Paul Crowder and produced by Glen Powell, Sean Stuart, Glen Zipper, Mark Monroe, J.J. Abrams and Hannah Minghella. John Turner, Bill O’Dowd, Emerson Davis, Rob Stone and Greg Wooldridge served as executive producers, with Maren Domzalski and Bridget Topp co-producing.
The Blue Angels is a Bad Robot, Zipper Bros Films, IMAX Entertainment and Dolphin Films Production, in association with Amazon MGM Studios, Sutter Road Picture Company, Diamond Docs and Barnstorm Productions. The film runs 45 minutes.
The AutoNation® IMAX® Theater at the Museum of Discovery and Science is located at 401 SW 2nd Street in Fort Lauderdale. The Blue Angels is included in the MODS Discovery Pass, an all-in-one ticket that includes Museum exhibitions, live science demonstrations and one IMAX documentary film.
