Neurofeedback is the science of training brainwave activity by giving your brain real-time information about how it is functioning. In this way, it is like showing your brain itself in a mirror, helping it recognise its own patterns.
For example, if you have learnt to stand on one leg to cope with stressors and trauma, brain training aims to help your brain learn a more balanced way of functioning, like standing on two legs. Once you experience a more balanced approach, it may become easier to maintain rather than return to old patterns.
Neurofeedback, also known as neurotherapy or EEG biofeedback, offers a non-invasive approach to brain training and cognitive enhancement. By training brainwave activity, neurofeedback aims to help individuals manage a range of challenges, including ADD, ADHD, learning disorders, anxiety, depression and sleep issues such as insomnia.
In addition, neurofeedback may be used to support individuals experiencing headaches, migraines, seizures, Parkinson’s disease, memory problems, brain fog and difficulties with focus and concentration. It is also explored in relation to Alzheimer’s disease, chronic traumatic encephalopathy (CTE), concussions, traumatic brain injuries (TBI), trauma and post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD).
Through this process, individuals learn to recognise and practise regulating their brain activity. As a result, neurofeedback may support goals such as improved focus, concentration, emotional regulation and sleep quality.
Whether you’re seeking peak performance training to optimise your cognitive abilities or exploring options for specific brain health and mental wellness concerns, neurofeedback offers an approach that can be tailored to your individual goals.
WHY would my brain be imbalanced?
Brains respond to trauma and stress in different ways, depending on the severity, frequency and age at which these experiences occur. For some people, these responses become automatic, shaping how they perceive and respond to the world around them. Over time, this can leave us feeling helpless. As a result, situations we might otherwise manage can become additional sources of stress and trauma. When stress becomes ongoing or severe, we may remain stuck in an emergency response, creating a vicious cycle in which we try harder and harder to regain control. Anxiety, which can occur even when there is no obvious cause, may begin to dominate our moods. Consequently, we can feel emotionally and physically drained as the body's fight-or-flight response remains activated. Eventually, this ongoing strain can contribute to feelings of helplessness, hopelessness and depression.
How does Brain training help?
Brain training aims to help us change habitual brain responses and develop new patterns over time. Brain waves rise and fall in rhythmic and arrhythmic patterns. During neurofeedback, thresholds are set to reinforce brainwave activity at specific points in its natural cycle. For example, when a beep sounds as brainwave activity moves into an alert state, it provides feedback that may help reinforce patterns associated with focus and concentration. Over time, this process aims to help the brain practise these patterns more consistently.
If your child battles to learn, focus or concentrate, our ADD learning program helps all clients to filter out distractions, stay on task and take in as well as retrieve information more easily.
Every time that we go through a severe stress or trauma in life, our brain will develop coping strategies to help, these can become our new normal. Brain Training shows our brain how to let go of these patterns that complicate or don’t serve us to live more efficiently.
