MEMORY LOSS
MEMORY LOSS,
DOES NOT HAVE TO BE A PART OF YOUR AGING PROCESS.
Neurofeedback: Your drug-free mental health solution!
H
e starts to talk about a
movie he saw recently
when he realizes he can’t
remember the title. She’s
giving directions to her house and
suddenly blanks on a familiar street
name. He’s in the kitchen wondering
what he went in there for. Forgetfulness
is a common complaint among older
adults. But there is good news.
The brain is capable of producing new
brain cells at any age, so significant
memory loss does not have to be
an inevitable result of aging.
If you or someone you love struggles
with MCI (mild cognitive impairment),
brain mapping, diagnostic testing,
and biofeedback treatments provide a
powerful, drug-free solution. Memory
recall, critical thinking, concentration,
mental quickness, and focused
attention can all be greatly improved
with neurofeedback treatments once
the mapping results detail the areas
of the brain that have irregularities.
The brain can be retrained!
When brainwaves are operating too
fast or too slow, specific areas of the
brain (Delta, Theta, Alpha, and Beta)
experience irregular patterns and
impairment occurs. With neurofeedback,
the brain is guided or trained to
normalize these patterns of irregularity.
The brain mapping includes an
image of your brain, analyzing
each of the four departments. This
noninvasive scan involves recording
your brainwaves with your eyes open
and again with your eyes closed.
Once the map is complete, the
neurofeedback sessions retrain
your brain, all while watching your
favorite show! The audio and visual
cues collected from the sensors and
processed through our Clear Mind
program is specific to the area of the
brain with the most abnormalities.
The software guides the brain to
create optimal signal patterns.
Remember your shopping list or that important work meeting. Retain
names when you meet people, and even more importantly, prevent
conditions like dementia and Alzheimer’s from developing.
Neurofeedback targets these four categories of brainwaves that are responsible for different body functions and retrains them:
ALPHA BRAINWAVE BETA BRAINWAVE DELTA BRAINWAVE THETA BRAINWAVE
RELAXED, REFLECTIVE ALERT, WORKING SLEEPY, DREAMING DROWSY, MEDITATIVE
