CNS's drug free and non-invasive methods provide demonstrated alternative solutions to pharmaceutical therapies. With over six years of research and actual clinical practice, CNS has optimized a state-of-the-art real-time brain mapping assessment and treatment system. Interventions include stimulation and interactive EEG-based feedback software to retrain the human brain.  Wellness Center USA and CNS expect to establish clinical practice facilities nationwide, beginning Q4 2012. From CNS's Tampa headquarters, CNS will train qualified healthcare professionals to populate the new practices, ensuring the highest quality of healthcare possible.

Wellness Center USA Inc. acquired CNS through a Share Exchange Transaction whereby all issued and outstanding shares of CNS were purchased in exchange for 7.3 million Wellness Center USA, Inc. (WCUI) shares. CNS's former principals, Dr. William Lambos and Mr. Peter Hannouche, will serve as CNS's President/Chief Scientific Officer and Chief Executive Officer, respectively, and have joined Wellness Center's Board of Directors.  

Going forward, CNS's financial results shall be reported consolidated by Wellness Center USA, Inc., starting with the fiscal quarter ending September 30, 2012. Similarly, Wellness Center's pending acquisition of Psoria-Shield Inc., will also be included in the Company's consolidated financial results upon consummation of the Psoria-Shield Inc. acquisition.

"The acquisition of CNS is the first example of Wellness Center USA's commitment to bringing the best healthcare technologies to the patients who need them on a larger scale than previously possible.  CNS breakthrough technology improves learning and behavioral abilities for children with ADHD and Autism, without the burden of drug dependency. We also have great expectations for a positive impact on the cost of treatment for the public and healthcare system, as CNS achieves awareness through national presence. With this valuable acquisition and further execution of our plan, we aim to increase the shareholders' value of the company," says Andrew Kandalepas, CEO of Wellness Center USA.

Dr. William Lambos, Chief Scientific Officer and President of CNS, stated, "With our Wellness Center closing, our vision for CNS playing a major role in the future of behavioral health is coming to be realized. Being on the same team with Wellness Center USA, capital investment needed to make CNS a national cognitive provider is greatly enhanced. CNS's scientifically based and effective alternative therapies, yet safe and natural, have never been more urgently needed by the changing world in this new millennium."  Peter A. Hannouche, CEO of CNS, added, "It's becoming well known that I've made it my personal and professional mission to bring CNS treatment approaches to as many people as possible. The completion of our transaction advances this mission a giant step. Our excitement about the future growth of CNS and Wellness Center is hard to overstate."

As part of the evaluation and due diligence process preceding this transaction, CNS was asked to conduct treatment on certain individuals selected by Wellness Center USA, Inc. One adult was treated for acute anxiety disorder, and a child for a developmental learning disability. The exceptional response of these two individuals to CNS treatment validated CNS's prior achievements and continued performance capabilities to date. Although this could not be considered a controlled study, the results nonetheless confirmed the effectiveness of the CNS approach.

Dr. Lambos continued, "About half of our clients come to us for help with adjustment and stress-related issues; another third are children with developmental difficulties, and the rest seek treatment for other disorders we treat, such as; chronic pain, migraine headaches, seizure disorder, rehabilitation from traumatic brain injury, and so forth. The percentage of individuals in the population who can benefit from a CNS treatment methodology is well over 50%. More than 90% of the patients treated at our facility have improved significantly and are living happier more productive lives."

Addressing the business model, depending on the severity of a disorder, treatments range from 6 to 15 weeks, and typically cost $4,000 to $10,000. In most cases, the results are permanent and without use or dependency on drugs. CNS has a scalable operation that allows for growth of profitable treatment centers nationally and globally.
