Neurotraining
EEG Biofeedback ● Neurotherapy
Neurotraining is the most effective and powerful brain training program in the world today.
Peak Performance
Neurotraining is firmly based on forty years of scientific research and practical application. It is safe, natural, non-invasive, with no side effects and based on cutting edge technology that enables you to exercise your brain in the comfort and privacy of your home/office.
What is Neurotraining?
Neurotraining training is brainwave biofeedback. During typical training, a couple of electrodes are placed on the scalp and one or two are usually put on the ear lobe. Then, high-tech electronic equipment provides you with real-time, instantaneous audio and visual feedback about your brainwave activity. The electrodes measure the electrical patterns coming from the brain--much like a physician listens to your heart from the surface of your skin. No electrical current is put into your brain. Your brainwave patterns are relayed to the computer and recorded.
Ordinarily, we cannot influence our brainwave patterns because we lack awareness of them. However, when you can see your brainwaves on a computer screen represented by graphics and games it gives you the ability to influence and change them. The mechanism of action is operant conditioning. We are literally retraining and retuning the brain.
At first, the changes are short-lived, but the changes gradually become more enduring, exactly like learning a skill or becoming physically fit. With continuing training, coaching and practice, we can develop healthier, high performance brainwave patterns in our clients.
Neurotraining is also being used increasingly to facilitate peak performance in "normal" individuals and high achieving athletes, executives, sales people, entrepreneurs, academics and performing artists. Thus if you are suffering a mood disorder or have ADHD or you are a high achiever looking for the edge neurotraining can enhance your brain function and improve your performance no matter where you are starting from.
Frank Duffy, MD, Neurologist, Head of the Neuroimaging Department and of Neuroimaging Research at Boston Children’s Hospital, and Harvard Medical School Professor, conducted an independent review of the literature on neurofeedback for Clinical Electroencephalography (2000). He summarized his findings as follows:
“The literature, which lacks any negative study of substance, suggests that EEG biofeedback therapy should play a major therapeutic role in many difficult areas. In my opinion, if any medication had demonstrated such a wide spectrum of efficacy, it would be universally accepted and widely used.”(p. v). “It is a field to be taken seriously by all” (p. vii).
Professor John Gruzelier Head of the Cognitive Neuroscience and Behaviour Laboratory at Imperial College London states that neurotraining “ can positively influence the cognitive performance of healthy individuals .” Financial Times 2003
