What is NeurOptimal® Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback training for the brain is similar to physical training for the body. Much of our suffering comes from pervasive thoughts and feelings in which our minds become “stuck”. Neurofeedback prompts the brain to draw from its existing resources and pull itself out of these mental “ruts”. The result is a positive mindset in which life feels more manageable.
How Does it Work?
Two tiny sensors are applied to the scalp and clips are applied to the ears. Listen to music or watch a movie. Sit back and relax during the 33.5 minute session while your brain learns!
NeurOptimal® is designed to give the brain information about itself and how it’s functioning. During the training session, NeurOptimal® monitors and detects 256 electrical pulses per second. It’s from that information that the system provides “feedback” to the brain. The brain then uses this new information to organize itself and develop more effective patterns.
During a session, the client listens to music or watches a movie while wearing sensors on his or her head. When NeurOptimal® detects that the brain is about to make a change, feedback is provided through brief pauses or interrupts in the sound. The brain is then able to adapt its response to this new information and make changes as it needs to in order to form new, more effective patterns.
