Recent Updates to Neurofeedback Protocals at Ready To Focus

Posted on January 30 2012

Ready To Focus participants have always enjoyed high levels of success using the neurofeedback program we offer.  That level of success is now reaching even higher levels based on some new protocols we have developed.  These protocols are available in our office or home based programs. 

One of these protocols include a specific training program for those with anxiety, stress, and poor sleep issues utilizing our auditory neurofeedback programs.  This auditory relaxation program includes a strong biofeedback component and most our participants begin to feel relief within just a few sessions and establish more long lasting change by completing the entire protocol (typically 3 months).  Because of the fact an anxious or stressed person’s central nervous system can be “locked” in an activated state, we need to program a relaxed counter-measure via the neurofeedback to give that participant the tools to use to relax and calm themselves.  Our newer protocols are very effective at doing so.

We have also developed several new protocols for our participants with focus and attention span problems, including theta-beta training plans (increasing focused versus unfocused activity), SMR augmentation training plans, and multi-site training along the sensiomotor strip.  Trend reports that statistically measure training scores show us the degree to which improvement is occurring.  These protocols join our current standard practice that includes 3d imaging of brain wave patterns, standardized behavior assessments, and regular contact with our psychologists on staff who direct all training protocols. 

Of course, only a good assessment can identify problematic and dysregulated areas of the brains.  An experienced provider can then set up the appropriate plan to maximize gains. 

If you would like a no-charge phone consultation with one of our psychologists to discuss you or your child’s particular situation and how neurofeedback may assist, please contact Kristi at 1-800-850-0535.
