Neuroptimal

Who is it for:

- Stress: During periods of stress in your life, NeurOptimal® neurofeedback is particularly helpful in calming the nervous system and providing relief from the many negative effects of stress. Our clients very often list feeling more relaxed, centered and calm among the top results they have noticed after completing NeurOptimal® neurofeedback sessions.

- Sleep: Clients who start NeurOptimal® neurofeedback often report improved sleep and a calmer state of mind in many different areas of life.

- Academics: Because NeurOptimal® neurofeedback training enhances concentration and mental focus, students use it as a tool to improve their performance in school.

What is it:

NeurOptimal® training is an advanced neurotechnology designed to train the brain to function at peak performance levels, by using a dynamical neurofeedback approach mirroring information to your brain about its own activity. This prompts your brain to check in with itself and adjust any activity that isn’t efficient for that moment. This recalibration happens 256 times per second during a 33 minute training period and your brain is in full control of the process.

How does it work:

The brain communicates with itself through electricity and chemicals. NeurOptimal® tracks the brain’s millisecond-by-millisecond electrical activity, and tracks the electrical communication of the brain, our brainwaves, to give precisely timed feedback through auditory cues. NeurOptimal® software works on the premise that the individual brain is its own expert. Give the brain good data and it will use it to optimize because the brain is always trying to use its energy to make the most efficient and effective decisions.

The software is designed to give feedback at the precise moment based on the mathematical calculations of the brainwaves electrical intensity, the duration of that signal and how frequently it occurs. The software reads 256 data points of electrical output from the scalp per second. When the software detects change it alerts through interruptions in auditory input, ie music. Those interruptions serve as cues that we need to pay attention to what's happening habitually. Through the process we can shift out of habits such as lacking focus, worrying, disrupted sleep, and reset our mental and emotional patterns. It is built on the recognition that the brain has its own organic, inherent capacity to rebalance wave pattern frequencies using this feedback.
