"Neurovizr is not merely a device, it is an opportunity to improve quality of life"- Dr. Mari Järvelaid

Mari Järvelaid – where science, sports and humanity meet

When we talk about Dr. Mari Järvelaid, we are speaking of someone whose path brings together medicine, psychology, sports and a deep care for people’s wellbeing. Her name carries the weight of both scientific achievement and human connection.

Mari first graduated from the University of Tartu in physical education and later in medicine. Her doctoral thesis, Health damaging risk behaviours in adolescence, defended in 2004, marked the beginning of a lifelong interest in youth risk behavior and mental health. Over the years, she has worked in several key institutions, from the Ministry of Social Affairs and the Health Board to the Estonian Psychiatric Association. Today, she focuses on child and adolescent psychiatry, an area that requires not only clinical expertise but also empathy and a sense of responsibility for the next generation.

Beyond medicine, Mari’s background also carries the discipline and strength of sports. In her youth, she was a competitive rower, a multiple-time Estonian champion and even an international class master of sport. This combination of academic and athletic experience gives her a unique perspective on resilience, mental balance and the importance of both body and mind in human health.

Her credibility is also reflected in the breadth of her scientific work. She is the author of more than one hundred scientific and popular science publications, published in Estonian, English, Finnish, Russian, Kazakh and Mongolian. She has studied adolescent risk behavior, mental health, epidemiology and ADHD. As Estonia’s representative on the ADHD Europe Professional Board, she has contributed her expertise on an international level.

NeuroVizr and the scientific connection

NeuroVizr combines the effects of light, sound and vibration in a way that aligns with the research fields of optogenetics and cymatics. These disciplines explore how light and sound can influence the human body and mind, from cellular activation to emotional balance. Dr. Järvelaid has described this approach as both meaningful and trustworthy.

What stands out to her is that NeuroVizr can enhance mitochondrial function, support tissue bioactivity and influence brain activity without the risks often linked to psychoactive substances. It offers a path to deeper relaxation, improved focus, emotional regulation and resilience in a way that complements modern science as well as timeless human experience with music and rhythm.
