Send us Fan Mail

Garrett Salpeter is an engineer, entrepreneur, author, and founder of NeuFit, best known as the creator of the NEUBIE device and his pioneering work at the intersection of neuroscience, rehabilitation, and human performance.

In this episode of Leave Your Mark, Garrett shares the journey that began with a significant hockey injury and evolved into a lifelong pursuit of understanding how the nervous system influences recovery, movement, and performance. A former collegiate hockey player with a background in physics and engineering, Garrett's curiosity led him beyond traditional rehabilitation models and into the world of functional neurology, motor control, and neuroplasticity.

Together, we explore the lessons hockey taught him about devotion, discipline, teamwork, and personal growth, as well as the pivotal experiences that shaped his professional path. Garrett discusses his transition from academia to entrepreneurship, the challenges of building a company from the ground up, and the development of direct current technologies designed to help people move, heal, and perform at a higher level.

Our conversation dives into the concept of the nervous system as the body's software, the role of compensation in both physical and psychological health, and why addressing root causes often produces more meaningful and lasting outcomes than simply treating symptoms.

Whether you're a coach, therapist, clinician, athlete, or simply fascinated by human performance, this episode offers a thoughtful look at innovation, resilience, and the ongoing pursuit of understanding how we adapt and thrive.

In this episode, we discuss:

• Garrett's hockey journey and the lessons sport taught him about excellence and contribution
• How a serious injury led him to functional neurology and neuroscience
