Sessions

Your initial assessment is the first step taken to prepare for your brain training sessions.

Before your assessment you are asked to complete your subjective and objective surveys.

While you are sitting comfortably, leaned back in our zero-balance chair, we stick pairs of  electronic sensors to your scalp using conductive paste.

We take readings from seven different locations. Each reading is performed with your eyes closed, then semi open and then with eyes open on a task.

A task (repeating numbers, reading, calculating, listening, counting, watching the screen) is added for each location to activate this particular area of your brain, while your data is recorded.

This data is processed together with the surveys to generate a brain map and a suggestion of which protocols - that is a placement with a related software design - to run during your sessions to help balance the energy patterns in your brain.

After your assessment you will be asked to complete paperwork. We will then discuss with you the results of your assessment, your goals, and how we will be working with you individually.


 

Each of your sessions consist of 6 - 8 protocols, which are designed to help balance your brain.

Before your sessions you are given important information, that we recommend you to follow.

While comfortable reclined in our chair with electronic sensors placed at various points on your head recording your brainwave activity during each protocol, you will be listening to various sounds of music played back to you from your own brain, letting it move towards a more balanced state - further helped by a guided meditation, a visualization or a task on screen.

We monitor your progress during each of the protocols and ask you how you are feeling after.
Sometimes a protocol is pulled and replaced by another in order to complete your training.

After your last session, we will review with you the progress, you have made. Results are generally subtle at first, and then they build over time.
Some clients feel subtle changes after third or fourth session. Many clients notice the most significant changes two to four weeks after their training.

You will also receive an email or a letter four weeks after the end of your training, as we would like you to give us your feedback of the full result of your training.


 

To get the most out of your training we ask you to follow important recommendations.

In general we ask you to refrain from alcohol and using any type of recreational drugs at least 48 hours (one week better) before the start of your sessions, during and between your sessions - and at least 4 weeks after your last session.
The brain training will help you coping with this.

Neurons are affected by alcohol, drugs and will tend to fail in building new stable neural nets and is therefore counter productive to brain training.

We ask you to refrain from other therapeutic modalities during, and at least four weeks after the end of your sessions to avoid possible risk of negative interference with your brain training.

Between sessions it is important to maintain a proper hydration - please drink plenty of water.

Similarly it is recommended to increase your intake of proteins and certain supplements.

Omega-3 fatty acids in the form of Flax oil or Fish oil capsules are highly recommended.
