What is Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback is a scientifically-based, non-invasive, drug-free form of brain training that allows the brain to learn self-regulation skills. The goal of neurofeedback is for the brain to master or consolidate these skills (i.e. learning how to self-regulate). Session frequency is ideally once or twice per week to start. Because Neurofeedback is a ground-up approach, over time session frequency can progressively reduce as the brain learns to engage in new and more adaptive patterns of responding on its own. Since every individual brain is different we cannot fully predict the total number of sessions each individual will need. Sessions are covered under most regular benefit plans.

How Does it Work?

Our Neurofeedback program uses a dynamic training system called Neuroptimal. A

Neuroptimal Neurofeedback session involves an individual sitting comfortably and either listening to meditative music or watching a movie. Sensors are placed on the head to read the brain’s electrical activity in real time through a live EEG. The system is detecting dominant “stuck” patterns and inconsistencies in the brain and then in turn, invites the nervous system to break away from those dominant firing patterns through audible cues. This allows the system to self-correct and overtime, learn to naturally improve its ability to function fluidly. Reactivity can then decrease and enhance all aspects of the individual’s life as their brain’s learn to “flow” more effectively and efficiently.

DEPRESSION

Neurofeedback may be considered a new approach for individuals with depressive symptoms. Some studies have reported improvements in both executive function and depressive symptoms following neurofeedback training. Neurofeedback can be valuable for several disorders, but it can work exceptionally well for anxiety and stress-related disorders.

ANXIETY

Anxiety is caused by dysregulated brain activity.  Neurofeedback addresses this dysregulation at the root of the problem and allows regulation which may decrease symptoms of anxiety. In these cases neurofeedback may be able to achieve not only short-term symptom reduction, but may increase long-term resilience to future stress and anxiety as well.

TRAUMA (PTSD)

Neurofeedback retrains the brain and nervous system to self-regulate,  thereby potentially easing symptoms of trauma and other conditions. This training may allow for ‘shifts” in the brain from a hyper-aroused state to a calmer one.  This shift may allow the individual to experience a sense of safety and react more appropriately to everyday events.

SLEEP

Neurofeedback teaches individuals to tap into their mind-body connection by regulation. They then use this ability to help them fall asleep faster and also may improve their quality of sleep.

ADHD/ADD

Neurofeedback for ADHD is a groundbreaking therapy that trains the brain to improve concentration, problem solving skills, and learning abilities.  This method has shown remarkable results, especially in children with ADHD and adult ADHD individuals.

AUTISM

Neurofeedback may help reduce hyperactive and impulsive behaviors often seen in some autistic individuals. Autism is often accompanied by sensory sensitivities. Neurofeedback may assist in improving sensory integration and reducing sensory overload.

LEARNING AND PHYSICAL/MENTAL PERFORMANCE

Because neurofeedback enhances concentration and mental focus, students may use this as a critical tool to improve their performance in school. For individuals who take part in sports either high performance or leisure neurofeedback may improve both mental and physical performance.
