Frequently Asked Questions

Biofeedback for your body and neurofeedback for your head is non-invasive. The training is safe for all ages. The worst side effect is that nothing happens!

Ideally you will train 20 sessions per challenge. You train twice weekly for 90 minutes.

During a neurofeedback session sensors or electrodes are placed on your head. In some cases a very small light comes out of the sensor and shines through your skull, in other cases the sensors simply pick up the electrical activity coming from your brain. In either case the sensors measure your brain activity and send the information to a computer. The software processes the data picked up by the sensors and translates it into interactive video and or audio signals. The signals “reward” your brain when it performs ideally. When you get distracted, the software lets you know to adjust your focus. Repeated neurofeedback training helps you learn to control brain activity that supports mental clarity, improved mood and sharper focus.

Biofeedback training helps you learn and practice new ways to control your body and your brain. For example you may wish to reduce stress and anxiety; in this case you could retrain your response to distressing emotions. Some people have trouble controlling their behavior. In these cases biofeedback can support a person’s confidence and help them believe that they do have control and that they are able to change. Biofeedback can help peak performers by reducing recovery time and by optimizing brain function. Successful biofeedback training is associated with decreased impulsivity, better sleep and improved self-regulation.

When you concentrate blood flow increases in the prefrontal cortex area of your brain. Increased activity allows you to focus, practice tasks patiently and plan ahead; these are called “executive skills”. Attention deficit causes blood flow to decrease while you are concentrating and this makes focusing more difficult. Brain blood flow neurofeedback is an excellent executive skills booster.

Sensors or biosensors are placed on key parts of your body where stress is normally registered. Biofeedback helps you recognize a stress response so that you can employ a technique like deep breathing, or meditation to calm your arousal. Biofeedback allows you to measure stress in your body and also the effectiveness of your stress busting intervention.

Simple. The engaging software provides real-time video and audio feedback as you train.
