NeurOptimal® Neurofeedback

NeurOptimal® is a cutting edge neurofeedback device that uses the latest understanding of the brain and body as a self-organising non-linear dynamical system. By effectively 'holding up a mirror' to the brain, it gives the brain the information it needs to optimise its own function. It does this by listening to the electrical activity of your brain and mirroring back the information via music that you listen to through headphones. When it hears something that is out of line with a reference range, it creates tiny interrupts in the music. This invites your brain to notice what it just did. It is then up to your brain what it does with this information. This sampling of brain activity takes place at a phenomenal 256 times per second.

 

NeurOptimal® is marketed as a wellness tool rather than a medical device. Rather like the purest forms of person-centred therapy, the device is non-directive and trusts the client's inner wisdom to find their own unique path. My role as a certifed NeurOptimal® trainer is mainly to help you to notice the shifts in your symptoms, which we take careful note of at the start. Like with any non-directive therapy, we do not know exactly where the therapy will lead, because your mind-brain-body is in charge. We do know that NeurOptimal® improves the flexibility and resilience of the brain and central nervous system, and that this nudges the whole system towards wellness. 

​

NeurOptimal® can be used as a standalone tool, or as a part of a broader counselling journey.  The USP for some clients is that you don't have to talk at all during the procedure, which takes care of itself while you can relax, read or use a screen.
