Train Your Mind with Neurofeedback

An effective way to change patterns of behavior

A logical question

What is neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback is a way of training your brain to work more optimally for you.

Simply put, it is the process of measuring information, like electrical activity/signals, from your brain (that’s the neuro-part) and that information is fed back to your brain over and over again (that’s the feedback-part). 

Hence the logical name, neurofeedback.

Why NeurOptimal® neurofeedback?

NeurOptimal® is a highly advanced non-linear program that measures all frequency levels at the same time and will present information to the brain in a way that can be understood by a dynamical system (learns on its own allowing for change), and the brain does the rest.

No evaluation, no diagnosis, no telling the brain what to do, no goals, no training of states (so no side effects) and no conscious participation by the client. Effortless.

NeurOptimal® Can Help

ADHD & ADD

Studies have shown significant improvement in patients with ADHD using neurofeedback. Improvements have occurred in areas of attention, impulsivity and hyperactivity. NF training has also had a positive effect on the executive function system with improvements in organizing, planning, motivation, self control and emotional regulation.

TRAUMA & PTSD​

Studies have shown the use of neurofeedback for the treatment of PTSD and other stress disorders to be an excellent alternative for patients who struggle with traditional methods of therapy or who have not experienced significant improvement using other forms of therapy. One of the main effects of neurofeedback on trauma is the shifting of the brain back to what is considered to be an optimal state which starts to reprogram that “fight of flight”response to one that is more supportive and flexible to deal with every day challenges but also to work towards a place of understanding the root of their trauma to start reprogramming healthier responses.

ANXIETY

When you look at the brain function of someone who is experiencing anxiety in real-time, there appears to be a disconnection in signals betweean the hemispheres in the brain when someone experiences anxiety. In this case, neurofeedback helps to expand the connectivity by enhancing those signals and connection between the two hemispheres of the brain, thus allowing for a much more regulated response. This type of reprogramming doesn’t just help during neurofeedback sessions but has actually proven to have a lasting effect on this type of bodily response.
