Brain Mapping (Quantitative Electroencephalography), which is often represented as either qEEG or QEEG, is a brain map using an International 10/20 system in an analysis of individual frequencies or frequency bandwidth that make up the raw EEG. By doing so, the Brain Map is used to assess how the brain is functioning. From this assessment, there are standardized methods for improving specific areas of the brain and is done through neurofeedback, which is a subdivision of biofeedback.

Thanks to advances in technology, Brain Mapping (qEEG or quantitative EEG) can now be performed in our office with a 19-point cap attached to a computer. The data is compared to normative databases and analyzed by experts who provide us with a detailed report. This information enables us to prepare a neurofeedback program with greater precision, enabling us to attain even greater results.

Biofeedback is one type of Behavioral Medicine using information gained by monitoring skin temperature, blood pressure, heart rate, and other body conditions to promote control over the normally involuntary nervous system through conditioning and relaxation. There are three types of biofeedback: thermal, muscular (EMG), and neurological (EEG). All employ some type of computer or monitoring device, along with electronic sensors to give information about what is going on in the body.

Also known as EEG biofeedback, neurofeedback is an operant conditioning method used to retrain a client's EEG into more optimally functioning patterns. Clients range from children with learning issues to adults seeking elite performance.

A neuropsychologist is a licensed psychologist who specializes in the study of brain behavior relationships. Neuropsychologists have extensive training in the anatomy, physiology, and pathology of the nervous system. They specialize in evaluating and treating people who are thought to have something wrong with the way in which their nervous system is functioning. From this training, the neuropsychologist can help determine your optimum level of brain fitness.

Sports psychology deals with the psychological factors associated with participation and performance in sports, exercise, and other types of physical activity. Sports psychology has three main objectives: performance enhancement, understanding the effects of participation in sports, and Injury prevention.

Everyone knows that good nutrition is fundamentally important for good health and for our brains to function properly. Little known is the fact that proper digestive system function and a healthy immune system are critically important to get essential nutrients, brain fitness nutrients to the brain cells that need them. We help each client set individualized goals to include specific nutritious foods into their daily diets.

Nutritional Response Testing is an advanced muscle testing technique which can be used to choose specific whole food nutrition products to design a unique individualized nutritional program created for each person's immune system needs. Once the immune system function starts to improve throughout the body, we can begin to see improvements in the many body functions which contribute to improving and maintaining brain fitness.

The Tomatis Method is a form of auditory listening training used for remediation of a number of issues ranging from problems sleeping, fear of public speaking and elite performance. Auditory training is performed with high quality recordings of classical music and Gregorian chant, filtration equipment and specialized headphones. We achieve our goals by optimizing listening through bone conduction, frequency filtration and left/right sonic gating.

iListen is a system used to provide therapeutic music consistent with the principles devised by Dr Alfred Tomatis. This system consists of an iPod Nano, a mini-amplifier and bone-conducting headphones. Music from Advanced Brain is pre-loaded onto the iListen device, e.g., The Listening Program® (Classic and Nature), as well as albums from the Sound Health® series. The sound quality is absolutely beautiful due to the utilization of lossless PCM technology, the next step up from MP3 (lossy compression).

The music selections have been engineered to offer options to activate or calm a client. In addition, there are options to enhance Peak Performance or evoke relaxation. iListen is a more generalized, faster approach to the custom Tomatis auditory training program.

CranioSacral therapy, developed by John Upledger, is the concept of dynamic activity and the relationship between the CranioSacral system. CranioSacral Therapy is a technique based on Cranial Osteopathy. Like Cranial Osteopathy, CranioSacral Therapy seeks to restore the natural rhythmic movement found between the bones of the skull. It does the same for the movements of the sacrum. The purpose of this is to aid the circulation of the cerebrospinal fluid throughout the central nervous system.

However, CranioSacral Therapists believe that the natural movements at the skull bones come from the membrane that lines our nervous system structures, namely the brain and spinal cord. By improving the natural rhythmic movement it helps improve brain functioning. Therefore, is an important part of Brain Fitness Training.

Reflexology is a science which deals with the principle that there are reflex areas in the feet and hands which correspond to all of the glands, organs and parts of the body. Stimulating these reflexes properly can help many health problems in a natural way, a type of preventative maintenance. Reflexology helps to normalize body functions. A Reflexology session relaxes the stress that can affect your health. It is a safe effective way to Better Health.

NeuroMuscular Massage is a form of deep tissue massage that is applied to individual muscles. It is used to increase blood flow, reduce pain and release pressure on nerves caused by injuries to muscles and other soft tissue.

It is a type of massage therapy which examines and treats muscles and muscle attachments in layers. It addresses surface muscles and connective tissues and deeper ligaments and connective tissues. It is closely aligned with the eastern technique of acupressure massage. The treatment techniques are very similar, the guidelines for applying acupressure apply to most Trigger Point Release applications.

Sport Massage has become an integral part of an athletic regime and can provide an extra edge to the athletes who participate in high performance sports. The physiological and psychological benefits of massage make it an ideal complement to a total conditioning program. Regular sports massage can reduce injuries, improve range of motion and muscle flexibility, shorten recovery time between workouts, increase blood flow, and improve power and performance.

Integrative Body Work uses a multidimensional treatment approach. It incorporates therapeutic massage, structural alignment and CranioSacral Therapy to relieve stress, relax the body and create new healthy physical patterns for the body. CranioSacral therapy, developed by John Upledger, is the concept of dynamic activity and the relationship between the CranioSacral system, its function in health and its relationship to the disease process. These therapies are an important compliment to other therapies.

Physical therapy works to maintain and improve movement and functioning of joints and limbs. Physical therapy encompasses exercises that help improve range of motion, muscle strength, coordination, endurance, flexibility, balance, motor skills, and general mobility (i.e., walking, climbing stairs, getting in and out of bed or chairs). Physical therapists tailor a treatment program unique to each individual to help decrease deficits and restore function. Physical therapy may also involve massage therapy, heat or water therapy, along with other interventions that will help improve a patients comfort as well as accelerate recovery. The ultimate goal of physical therapy is to restore maximum functional independence to each individual patient.

Physical therapy can be used to rehabilitate a patient after amputations, arthritis, cancer, neurological problems, orthopedic injuries, spinal cord injuries, stroke, traumatic brain injuries, and other injuries/illnesses.

Elite performance training is attractive to those individuals who are already high performers who wish to reduce any remaining barriers to even greater success. We create an individualized program to achieve these goals utilizing neurofeedback, auditory training, photostimulation and nutrition to name but a few of the tools available within our office.

Raindrop Therapy is a healing technique using pure essential oils. Raindrop Therapy combines aromatherapy, reflexology, massage and moist heat to create healing and cleansing through structural and electrical alignment to the body. The purpose of the therapy is to bring total balance, harmony, and body wellness including mental, physical, and emotional.

NeuroMuscular Massage is a form of deep tissue massage that is applied to individual muscles. It is used to increase blood flow, reduce pain and release pressure on nerves caused by injuries to muscles and other soft tissue.

Water is a great healer and the ideal medium for rehabilitation, conditioning, training. The hydrostatic (passive) and hydrodynamic (active) properties of water provide an optimal environment for safe and effective therapy and conditioning. With little or no weight bearing in the water, the injured or deconditioned client is able to return to desired activities quickly and safely.
