Neurofeedback

Health Within is a full service Homeopathic health clinic  helping individuals and families to find a renewed sense of wellbeing and peace of mind. We places great emphasis upon maximizing each individual’s cognitive, emotional, social, and neurobehavioral functioning.

Neurofeedback has been shown to be helpful for a number of clinical disorders, including ADHD, Learning Disabilities, Autism, Depression, Anxiety, Substance Abuse, PTSD and TBI. It has also been used to address Pain Management, Seizure Di-sorder, Memory Impairment, Asthma and Chemotherapy related cognitive decline.

Neurofeedback utilizes computer assisted technology and principles of Operant Conditioning to optimize brain wave functioning. Neuro-feedback has allowed some individuals to reduce or eliminate the need for medications as their brain functioning improves.

Neurofeedback typically takes place 2-3 times per week initially, and is then tapered down as symptoms remit. Most conditions require 20-40 sessions, so the individual and his/her family must be willing to make the time commitment to allow the brain to restructure itself.

Self regulation and mindfulness training.

The field of neuroscience continues to provide insight into our ability to improve our wellbeing. A comprehensive approach to health includes ensuring that our thoughts, feelings, behaviors, and relationships are positive and balanced and adaptive.

Optimal functioning in school, at work, or in our relationships often depends on healthy cognitive, behavioral and emotional functioning. Health Within offers psychological assessments and state-of-the-art neurobehavioral QEEG Brain Mapping to determine the brain’s level of functioning.

When the brain is functioning optimally, it is allocating neuronal resources in a desynchronized manner that allows flexibility and efficiency. In this state of mind, neurons can communicate with one another quickly to accomplish a task and then release from that task to be reassigned to another area of the brain. Healthy cognitive and emotional regulation can alleviate symptomatology and improve overall performance.

How to Make New Neurons in Your Brain

Why is this important?  Your brain makes use of the new neurons to implement change.  Change is what you wanted when you got interested in neurofeedback, or psychotherapy, or any of the other things we look to in order to feel better and live our lives more fully. So this is about giving your brain what it needs to help it make the changes you want for yourself.

Neuroplasticity is enhanced by:

Aerobic exercise

Novelty

Emotional arousal

Mindfulness practice

So – moving your body, learning something new, excitement and enthusiasm, and mindfulness practice are all activities that will produce new neurons in your brain.
