Neurotherapy Treatment

The brain is a marvelous organism that functions like a massive computer in your body to initiate actions, thoughts, behaviors, emotions and to solve problems, create new experiences and develop relationships with others. All of these functions are driven by chemical and electrical activity in the brain.  At this point in time we study the brain by examining brain wave patterns and blood flow patterns.  Our current understanding tells us that when we change brain wave patterns through stimulation, we can change how the brain functions in a variety of ways. 

At present the most common form of intervention when the brain has difficulty focusing, sustaining or releasing attention or has difficulty relaxing or modulating moods is to use medication.  Medication is effective as long as it is in the body but must be renewed with great frequency.  Medication often has unpleasant side effects while it is in the body and while coming off of the medication between doses.  Neurotherapy is a successful alternative to medication that does not have the negative side effects of medication and has been shown to have sustainable and even cumulative effects that become permanent.  Thus, the side effects of Neurotherapy are positive:  better focus, better sleep patterns, better sustained attention and performance and reduced stress and anxiety.

The NeuroAdvantage equipment that will be used for your Neurotherapy sessions is sophisticated yet easy to operate.  Sessions are programmed for 20 to 50 minutes with specific patterns of light and sound stimulation to target brain wave changes that will meet the criteria that you set.  You may select programs for increased concentration and focus, increased relaxation and stress reduction or increased sleep induction.

Telephone contact and coaching will be available as you learn to use the equipment and experience the desired changes.

Retraining the Brain:  The Key to Success

The NeuroAdvantage™ Trainer uses enjoyable light and sound neurotherapy (LSN) to correct the slow brainwave pattern that is common in people with ADHD and/or learning problems, Anxiety and Depression.  This patented technology takes advantage of our brains’ natural tendency to synchronize with pleasant repetitive stimulation.

Each NeuroAdvantage™ Trainer program uses sequenced light and sound stimulation to train the person’s brainwaves in the desired direction over the course of the training session.

Eleven studies*** of over 500 ADHD &/or learning disabled students found that LSN:

• Increased Sustained Attention
• Decreased Hyperactivity & Impulsive Behaviors
• Improved Essential Learning Skills including:
        Auditory Memory
•        Mental Processing Speed
•        Verbal and Non-Verbal IQ
  Decreased Anxiety & Depression
  Improved Academic Performance
  Maintained Treatment Gains for up to 16 months

Repeated three or more times per week, the NeuroAdvantage™ Trainer has the cumulative effect of enhancing overall wellbeing as well as improving the targeted areas of brain functioning.
