What is Neurofeedback?
A safe, non-invasive way to train your brain for better focus, calm, and resilience.
Neurofeedback training harnesses the brain's innate capacity for change, using real-time information about brain activity to promote self-regulation and optimal performance.
The Mirror Analogy
Neurofeedback training uses your brain's own resources — nothing is imposed and there is no artificial stimulation. It relies on your Central Nervous System's (CNS) inherent intelligence to make changes where it feels it needs to. It is not directing your brain in any way, just providing it with more real-time information, similar to when we look in a mirror and assess ourselves visually. Just as you use a mirror to adjust your posture, neurofeedback acts like a mirror for the brain, and your CNS makes changes based on what it has learned from this new information.

What Happens in a Session?
Get Comfortable
Sit back in a comfortable chair. We place sensors on your scalp and ears to track and record your brain activity.
Listen to Music
You simply listen to music or watch a movie while the system monitors the electrical activity in your brain.
Brain Learns
Brief pauses in the audio act as feedback, mirroring back information to your brain inviting it to self-correct and optimize its function.
Is it Safe?
Yes, neurofeedback training is completely non-invasive and safe and has been used clinically for over 30 years. Health Canada has determined that NeurOptimal® is a Consumer Product, and the FDA has determined it to be a General Wellness Device.
