What is Neuro-Feedback?

Neuro-Feedback is a type of Bio Feedback which allows a client to have greater sensory perception of areas they would not usually be aware of.  This enables a client to train their brainwaves to achieve greater performance.  Neuro-feedback uses rhythmic electrical activity from the brain and challenges the client to modify this feedback to get the desired result.
​
An analogy we can use for Neuro-feedback is that information passes through our brain waves like a surfer riding on waves in the sea.  If the surfer is going faster or slower than the waves, then he might fall off.  Neuro-feedback is a way of training our brain waves to work at the optimum frequency for the information to travel on.  

​What are the benefits of Neuro-Feedback?

​Neuro-feedback clients find that their energy levels have changed and that they are able to operate within their world much easier than before.  Most people could benefit from Neuro-feedback.  The level of change and number or intensity of sessions can vary from client to client  Common benefits of Neuro-feedback include helping with;
  • attention and focus
  • improved energy levels
  • mood and motivation
  • calming people who are overly energetic and are unable to settle and relax
  • improved quality of sleep
  • and to treat depression, anxiety and panic attacks.
Children with ASD and ADHD are able to calm down, focus and interact better with their family and peers.  Children with a diagnosis of Autistic Spectrum Disorder have been seen to interact with their world better and more fully. 

Neuro-feedback can assist in lowering anxiety levels, speech improvements, improved orientation with their surroundings, with less obsessiveness and increased empathy. 
​
Neuro-feedback can improve performance, concentration and focus. Clients can feel more in sync or flow with themselves and those around them.

​What to expect from a Neuro-Feedback session

Your initial appointment will involve an assessment.  This clarifies the intention of the treatment and is used to obtain any relevant background information.  Tests of focus and attention are given to clients to obtain a base line for the client and information to guide future treatments.   This initial assessment can be spread over several sessions.
​
After assessment treatment is then started.  Regular sessions are required and usually span 50-60 minutes.   Neuro-feedback can range from 20 to 40 sessions, ranging from 3 times a week to weekly depending on the intensity and strategy appropriate to meet the goals of the client.
