While there, he completed further specialized training in Amsterdam for the American Chiropractic Neurology Board, and attained diplomate status in chiropractic neurology in 2000. After returning to the U.S., Dr. Joe obtained a master’s degree in clinical research from Palmer College in 2006, in a program supported by the National Institutes of Health.

In recent years, he has dedicated his efforts to research and technological innovation that helps people create more brain power. He is considered a leading expert in the area of transcranial photobiomodulation and the brain. Since creating the PRONEURO approach, he has become a highly sought after cognitive neurotherapist and brain fitness coach. He currently divides his time between Arizona, Italy, and Costa Rica.
