Neurofeedback Brain Training
Change your brain and change your life! Whether its about moods, pain, relationships, stress or peak performance; at work, at play, or at rest, neurofeedback training offers benefits for you!
Brainwave training is a scientifically proven, evidence based approach that teaches the brain to work at its fullest capacity and to switch gears smoothly and as needed for the task at hand. Since the 1970’s, neurofeedback has been researched, refined, and tested; demonstrating that it is possible to recondition and retrain brainwave patterns. Neurofeedback teaches children and adults how to suppress slower or more inappropriate brainwave activity while increasing more efficient brainwave activity. This research has proved Neurofeedback is usually quite strongly effective in decreasing impulsiveness/hyperactivity, improving mood stability, improved academic performance and increased retention and memory.
Every ADD/ADHD or learning disability study that has evaluated IQ pre and post training has found IQ increases following Neurofeedback training. These improvements have ranged from an average increase of 9 points in one study (Linden et al., 1996) to an average increase of 12 points in another study (Thompson & Thompson, 1998), to a mean of 19 IQ points (Tansey, 1990) and even up to an average increase of 23 IQ points in still another study (Othmer and Kaiser, 1999).
In the case of Neurofeedback, software gives visual and audio feedback to provide an experience to the brain of enhanced function, specifically to improve its regulation of thoughts, feelings, and focus.
Neurofeedback has been used successfully with children as young as 18 months, adults over 90 years old, and every age in between. It is a non-invasive and non-pharmaceutical adjunct or alternative to other more traditional therapies and has been scientifically proven to achieve positive results in the vast majority of people who commit to a course of training.
Since the brain is the master regulator, most people will enjoy benefits from Neurofeedback depending on their objectives. After training for focus, impulsivity and concentration, the most common feedback applications are to train for improvement in the effects of stress associated with sleep, fears, pain management and trauma concerns. It is also proven successful to train the brain for peak performance, improved energy and mood, improved relationships, clearing the side effects of chemo and anesthesia fogs, provide brain brightening, and cognitive and memory enhancement.
Generally people notice improvement within the first 5 - 10 sessions. For longer lasting and often permanent results 20 or more sessions may be recommended depending on the concerns for which one is being trained.
If you or your child have problems with focus or impulsivity, or are not getting the full results from medication or don’t like the side effects; if you can visualize what you want out of life but consistently get derailed from negative self talk, anxiety or fear, if you wake up with negative feelings in the mornings, if you’ve ever suffered from a traumatic emotional or physical event; or if you would just like a more restful nights sleep or to sharpen your memory or mental acuity go to the following link to schedule an appointment with Kim call 208.610.3183
