Our Mission
Honoring Service Through Brain-Based Healing
To honor and support veterans and their families by delivering direct access to innovative, non-invasive brain-based care. Through neurofeedback programs, mental health services, and ongoing research, Hippocampus AIR empowers those who have served to reclaim clarity, emotional balance, and hope.
We are committed to ensuring that no veteran is left behind—mentally, emotionally, or physically. Our comprehensive approach addresses the unique challenges faced by military families, providing evidence-based interventions that create lasting transformation.
Every veteran deserves access to cutting-edge care that honors their sacrifice and supports their journey toward wellness. Through partnerships with leading clinicians and researchers, we're building a network of excellence dedicated to veteran mental health.
Our Vision
Building a Future of Accessible, Transformative Care
We envision a future where every veteran and family member has immediate access to effective support for PTSD, trauma, and emotional regulation—without long waitlists or pharmaceutical dependency. The current system has failed too many who have served, leaving them waiting months or years for appointments while struggling with invisible wounds.
By combining brain mapping, neurofeedback, and a growing toolkit of natural, evidence-based therapies, we are building a new model of care that is accessible, measurable, and transformative. Our approach treats the root causes of trauma rather than simply masking symptoms, offering veterans a path to genuine healing and sustainable wellness.

What Makes Us Different
Hippocampus AIR represents a revolutionary approach to veteran mental health care. While traditional systems often rely on long waitlists and pharmaceutical interventions, we've built a model that prioritizes immediate access, cutting-edge neuroscience, and holistic healing.
1
Direct Care Access
We identify, vet, and fund treatment at clinics that deliver cutting-edge brain mapping and neurofeedback programs, so veterans can get care fast, from providers who get results. Our rigorous vetting process ensures every partner clinic meets the highest standards of clinical excellence and veteran-centered care.
No bureaucracy. No endless paperwork. Just direct pathways to the care that changes lives.
2
All-Inclusive Rally Model
Our AIR Rallies raise awareness and fund care through unforgettable driving events across the U.S. Each entry funds care for a veteran and their family, $2,000 per vehicle goes directly to treatment and furthering research.
These events unite car enthusiasts, veterans, and supporters in a shared mission, creating memorable experiences while generating life-changing resources for those who served.
3
Research That Matters
We collaborate with top researchers and clinicians to validate and advance brain-based therapies, including:
  • Photobiomodulation (light-based brain stimulation)
  • Brain-targeted nutrition and herbal protocols
  • Hyperbaric oxygen therapy
  • Neurofeedback protocol optimization
  • Clinical data from real-world cases
A portion of every donation helps fund research, measurement, and reporting, so we can prove what works and expand access to the most effective interventions.

Why It Matters
Rebuilding Lives Through Brain Health
"When you help a veteran reclaim their brain, you help rebuild their life."
The Crisis We Face
Veteran suicide rates remain tragically high, with an average of 17 veterans dying by suicide every day in the United States. Traditional mental health systems are overburdened and under-effective for trauma survivors, leaving too many without adequate support.
Long waitlists, pharmaceutical-focused approaches, and lack of specialized trauma care have created a gap in services that fails our veterans when they need help most.
Our Response
Hippocampus AIR is building a new path—one where the brain is supported, the family is included, and healing is actually possible. By addressing the neurological impact of trauma directly, we offer hope where traditional approaches have fallen short.
Our model proves that with the right interventions, veterans can reclaim their lives, rebuild relationships, and rediscover purpose.
