| Brain
Mapping |
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.

| Integrative
Body Work |
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.

| Elite
Performance Training |
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,
to name but a few of the tools available within our
office.

| Neurofeedback |
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.

| Nutritional
Education |
Everyone
knows that good nutrition is fundamentally important
for good health and for our brains to function properly.
However, few people know that proper brain fitness requires
specific nutrients. And also little known is the fact
that proper digestive system function and the health
of the immune system are critically important to get
those specific brain fitness nutrients to get to the
brain cells that need them.

| Nutrition
Response Testing |
Nutrition
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.

| Neuropsychologist |
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.

| Biofeedback |
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.

| The
Tomatis Method |
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 Therapy™ |
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 |
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.
