Neurofeedback

Could you benefit from Neurofeedback training?

I believe it would be highly unlikely that you would not significantly benefit from this "State of the Art Training" unless you are in perfect health with little stress or mental fatique. 

What is it anyway? 

Neurofeedback, also called Biofeedback EEG, provides real time analysis of a person's electrical brain's activity and delivers visual and acoustic information about brain waves properties and this way allows individuals to improve intuitively and progressively their physical, mental and emotional functioning. What I see in my clients is that their Mental Fatigue significantly decreases and their over all quality of life often improves to a much higher level.  Neurofeedback sessions are available to individuals in Central and South Florida, Orange, Seminole, Miami-Dade Counties - Orlando, Winter Park, Dr. Phillips, MetroWest, Ocoee, Winter Garden, Celebration, Kissimmee, Clermont, Windermere Miami, Coconut Grove, and National / International Cities around the world. 


Practically we can learn everything, as long as we get a valid information feedback that clearly shows us if the action is accurate or not. This is the typical pattern of every physical or intellectual learning process, like walking, talking or driving a vehicle. However when it comes to internal body functions, like for instance the regulation functions, it is virtually impossible to consciously and directly have an influence on them. We only realize that something doesn't work properly when those functions are reduced, stop or induce pain.  

Although Neurofeedback is highly complex from a technological perspective, it is however very simple to use. In practice, electrodes are fastened to the scalp and ears. Brain waves are detected by a decoder/amplifier (electroencephalograph) which provides the computer and the dedicated software with data. The practitioner is in charge of the software on his own screen while a multimedia activity is delivered to the client on a different screen in the form of a move, game, music or a video animation.

Often  a game or a video animation goes by and as much as the activity in a target range is increasing, the video animation goes smoothly forward or any other positive feedback is delivered to the client. This is the principle of the reward that we receive when we do right. If the activity in an undesirable target range increases, the game or the animation simply slows down, or even stops. Progressively the brain responds to the received indications and can - at last - make the difference between right and wrong and can learn from that experience a better functioning that will be memorized by the brain as it is one of its properties 
Please note, that I utilize a very different formate for feedback that is very effective and does not involve playing games or any effort on your part!

How many sessions do I need?  

The number of sessions vary based on the individual needs of the person but on average are from 15 to 30 training sessions.  Sessions wiil be held at our beautiful Orlando center offering easy accessability for clients in Orlando, Winter Park, Metro West, Dr. Phillips, Windermere, Kissimmee, Celebration, Clermont and Winter Garden.

When should I notice improvement? 

A person will usually begin to see real improvement with 5 to 7 sessions.

How long do the benefits last?

On average you can expect to maintain the improvements for many years but I would recommend that you come back in for an additional session or two every couple of years or sooner if you have a dramatic life change. 

What does it cost per session? 
 
Usually Training sessions cost $100.00 for 30 minuets, $200.00 for an hour and $400.00 for a two hour session.  For the next 60 days I am reducing my fees by 50% to help make this training even more affordable!

How many sessions should I have per week for the quickest results?

It appears that for most people 1 to 2 times a week yields the best results. 

In Conclusion

This training has no equivalent, as it is entertaining, pleasant, relaxing, safe and non intrusive. It is rapidly adopted by children and adults who appreciate to get a clear and visual response to their brain activity. The results are particularly notable between sessions while the quality of sleep improves and attention is enhanced. It is also a tool that leads to a deep relaxation with such results as clarity of mind and well-being. I have found that when a person's brain works better their marriages are better, their health is better, their jobs are better, their relationships in general are better and their is less anger and much more joy and peace in their life!  


Various studies have shown amazing results with Neurofeedback and nervous system disorders, such as mental fatigue, migraine, depression, anxiety, OCD (Obsessive Compulsive Disorder) insomnia, chronic pain, Hypertension, excessive anger, addictive impulse control challenges, hyperactivity, ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder), Learning Disabilities, Autism, PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder), Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, Fibromyalgia, Autoimmune Dysfunction, Parkinson's Dystonia, and Epilepsy. Other studies from around the world indicate it Neurofeedback helps in brain vascular accidents, stroke, post-coma disturbances, prevention of "Cemo-Brain", and Asthma. Neurofeedback can enhance Academic Cognitive Performance, Creativity, Optimal Functioning and reduce Cognitive Decline with aging, weight loss and control. The list of benefits from Neurofeedback training is long and is being added to just about every day.
