Peak Performance
Brainhealth has successfully used Neurofeedback for Peak Performance Training to enhance an individual performance and well being.
Peak performance training teaches an individual to use the full capacity of his or her brain in the performance of a task, be it athletic, (cycling, swimming, running etc) academic, task and objective performance at work, musical or any one of the performing arts.
To achieve peak performance the efficient utilisation of mental resources is crucial. After all it is your brain that drives and controls you! Extensive research has shown that too much worrying or excessive anxiety disrupts your performance. You may not be aware of your anxiety and blame your poor performance on your lack of ability when in fact all you need is some neurofeedback brain training sessions to reduce your anxiety and improve your executive functions. Note please do not undertake any form of neurofeedback training without a appropriate clinical assessment as there may be a previously undetected underlying cause that could be affecting you. 121 Neurofeedback services and Brainhealth will provide this assessment before proceeding with any form of Neurofeedback Brain Training.
The number of sessions needed varies from person to person as Neurofeedback is an individual learning process and results are seen gradually over time.
Under normal circumstances and to respect each individuals confidentiality I will not publish Peak Performance testimonials! However occasionally clients want to share their success. This is a considerable overhead and not necessarily positive for new clients. A way forward would be if past clients are willing to discuss their training experience directly with you and only with their written permission will that then be arranged.
How is Neurofeedback Brain Training carried out?
At either of our clinics small electrodes are placed on the scalp to measure and record the electrical activity in various parts of the brain. Information regarding this brainwave activity is then relayed to a computer. See the neurofeedback tab above for more information or click here.
The computer, in turn, converts the brainwaves into a graphic display that the trainee sees on a computer screen. Using the information gained from this graphic display, the trainee can learn how to produce the needed brainwave pattern for a given activity. Note that no electrical current is put into the brain. The equipment is not capable of doing that. It only reads information about what the brain is doing (much like a thermometer reads the temperature) and provides that information to the trainee in an useable form.
Once trained the brain maintains the new level of functioning.
