What age can you begin training?
There are no age requirements to do training. We work with both children and adults ranging from 4-94.
Am I able to take my medications while training?
YES. Neurofeedback training does not interfere with any medication. We highly encourage you to continue taking all medications as prescribed and continue to monitor those medications with the counsel of your prescribing physician.
Are there side effects to Neurofeedback training?
There are NO unpleasant side effects from our Neurofeedback training, because our training is only offering information to the brain, so it can self-regulate using it’s own resources.
Do I need to bring anything to my sessions?
Just bring yourself.
You may read, look at your phone, or take a nap.
How is this different from programs like Lumosity?
Lumosity brain training games are games that advertise specific skills which are addressed in their games. Those games do not provide any form of feedback regarding the functioning of the central nervous system. They are simply games that focus on certain skills.
Neurofeedback training provides information regarding how your brain is functioning and allows the brain to change in response to that feedback. It is not a game and is considered learning for the brain.
The words "brain training" are used in many different contexts online. Some references are specific to games, while others are a form of cognitive rehabilitation.
Why has my doctor not recommended this form of training?
Your doctor or healthcare provider may not be familiar with Neurofeedback training because their medical training did not provide this knowledge to them. We are happy to help educate and explain how our training program works, should your provider have questions about our specific Neurofeedback training we provide.
Does this work the same way as music therapy?
No. This is not a music therapy program. Music therapy is done by licensed professionals who set specific goals and implement interventions to address specific needs through music.
Neurofeedback uses music as the means of providing the feedback to the brain only; the technician is not making any changes or adjustments to the music.
Is Neurofeedback covered by insurance?
We do not bill insurance for Neurofeedback services. We are considered an out of network provider and we accept all major credit cards for payment. You will receive a receipt for your session and you may contact your insurance company for reimbursement purposes.
