What is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a safe, non invasive way to train your brain to grow new healthy neuropathways. It's related to biofeedback, in that it measures your body's rhythms and shows it to you as an opportunity to self regulate, become more resilient and flexible. Another way NeurOptimal is different then other neurofeedback methods is you don't have to actively or cognitively interact with the program to attain improvements.
Q: What is NeurOptimal and how does it work?
A: NeurOptimal focus's on training 20 different measurement "envelopes", to help the brain self regulate and organize, though static sounds or breaks in the music when the brain has instabilities. This allows your brain the opportunity to recognize the instabilities and choose another more optimal pattern. It gently learns to function better with training.
Q: What Neurofeedback services do you offer?
A: NeurOptimal sessions, rentals, and purchases.
Q:Will there be a time commitment from me on a regular basis? How long before I see results?
A: Each NeurOptimal session lasts 33 minutes, normally about 45 minutes for an appointment.
Each person's needs and responses are different. Some people find 3 sessions are helpful, others 8-10 sessions are found to bring powerful changes. Others 40+ sessions bring improvements long sought after.
Some find it helpful to see Neurofeedback like exercise or riding a bike, the skills learned are long lasting but it's most effective and helpful if done regularly. Some people find weekly, monthly, tune ups appropriate, others find sessions very helpful when facing stressful or important life moments like: tests, sports events, or divorce to name a few.

Q: Are there any risks with NeurOptimal?
A: No, dynamic Neurofeedback is non-invasive and different than Linear Neurofeedback, there are no risk of side effects. It does not push your brain into any particular states.
Q: Is NeurOptimal appropriate for all ages?
A: Yes! It's safe, non invasive brain training for improved life function and comfort. There is no diagnosis, no treatment, only training for optimization. Benefits can be found with only a few minutes of training, and sessions can be done while doing homework, working or watching your favorite show or movie.
