What is LENS Neurofeedback?
Low Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS) is another form of neurofeedback. This treatment is a type of brain stimulation therapy that utilizes a microcurrent neurofeedback signal. LENS treatment uses sensors to measure brainwave activity, and these sensors then deliver a microcurrent neurofeedback signal that mimics brainwave frequencies. LENS technology allows us to target different areas of the brain to encourage the brain to rewire itself and utilize more optimal brainwave activity. This is similar to rebooting your computer to help it run more smoothly and efficiently.
LENS CAN BE USED ON THE BODY!
Reading the highest frequency and "talking" to your central nervous system, LENS Neurofeedback on the body helps alleviate pain naturally and instantly!
The LENS is a specific kind of neurofeedback that operates much more rapidly than “traditional neurofeedback” and has qualities that make it easier to use with people who are unable to sit still. With the LENS, the client doesn’t need to “do” anything, and there is nothing to learn. The typical session with the LENS lasts 3-4 minutes. This means that the LENS works well for people who either cannot pay attention to a computer screen for longer time periods like those used in “traditional neurofeedback.”
The LENS has been used for over 30 years, on infants as young as 3 months of age, and on animals including dogs, cats, goats, chickens, horses, racehorses, chimpanzees, giraffes, and gorillas! Oh My!
How does the LENS work?
We apply sensors to the scalp or body to capture brainwave activity, processing the signal by our computer software, and extracting information about the client’s brainwave frequencies. Through a patented process, we then bring this information back to the client’s scalp via the sensors. The results are reduction and/or resolution of the symptoms which previously interfered with the client’s quality of life. The sessions are brief (usually 3-5 minutes), gentle (usually the client feels nothing during the session), and the changes are lasting with some exceptions: with symptoms of progressive conditions such as Parkinson’s and MS and neurodegenerative disorders, the sessions need to be ongoing to sustain the improvement.
What conditions does the LENS help with?
Cognition – Problems sequencing, memory, providing and maintaining attention, concentration, clarity, and organization.
Mood – Anger, sadness, explosiveness.
Motor – Lack of grace, problems of eye-hand coordination, balance, increased muscle tone (from spasticity) and tremor.
Motivation – Problems initiating tasks, shifting from one activity to another, and/or completing tasks.
Anxiety – Problems of anxiety system activity (too much uncomfortably-contained energy), persistent “anxiety”, restlessness, rumination, agitation, distractibility, difficulty breathing, palpitations, tremor exacerbation, and sleep interruption.
Reactivity – Hyper-reactivity, hypersensitivity, multiple chemical sensitivities.
Pain – Brain-generated pain (mis-mapping the origins and qualities of signals), and vascular pain.
Addictions/Dependencies – Lack of clarity about emotions and self-comforting, defensiveness, argumentativeness, and cynicism.
Fatigue – Fatigue; or fatigue as a phenomenon secondary to the effort of trying to overcome the pain and/or the above impediment to functioning more easily.
Performance Optimization – Increases in functioning in the above areas in absence of any diagnosis.
The LENS works well with symptoms of Central Nervous Symptom dysfunction. These include symptoms of ADD, ADHD, Seizures and sub-clinical seizure activity, severely disruptive behavior disorders such as Conduct Disorder, Reactive Attachment and Bipolar Disorder, Autistic spectrum and pervasive developmental delay, Cerebral palsy, concussive injuries, PTSD, Acquired Brain Injury, and Birth Trauma.
The LENS works extremely well with the symptoms of Traumatic Brain Injury, no matter how long ago the incident occurred. The trauma can be from a physical blow, a concussive injury, a psychological incident (PTSD), or any other incident(s) which results in a decrease in cognitive ability.
Many children have sleep problems that can be helped such as bed wetting, sleep walking, sleep talking, teeth grinding, nightmares, and night terrors.
The LENS can also be helpful with many of the symptoms of adolescence including drug abuse, suicidal behavior, anxiety and depression.
The LENS can also help in maintaining good brain function as people age.
Key Benefits:
Improved Focus and Attention: LENS Neurofeedback has shown promising results in enhancing concentration and attention, making it beneficial for individuals dealing with attention-related challenges.
Enhanced Emotional Regulation: Experience a positive impact on mood and emotional well-being. LENS promotes a balanced emotional state by addressing irregular brainwave patterns associated with mood disorders.
Reduced Stress and Anxiety: LENS supports relaxation and stress reduction by helping the brain achieve a more balanced and coherent state, leading to a calmer nervous system.
Better Sleep Quality: Many individuals report improved sleep patterns after LENS sessions, contributing to overall physical and mental restoration.
Peak Cognitive Performance: Whether you're a student, professional, or simply seeking cognitive optimization, LENS Neurofeedback can help unlock your cognitive potential.
What to Expect:
Personalized Assessment: Our experienced practitioner conducts a thorough assessment to understand your unique needs and develop a personalized LENS Neurofeedback plan.
Gentle and Non-Invasive: LENS sessions are painless, non-invasive, and typically last 20-30 minutes. No need for lengthy appointments or uncomfortable procedures.
Progress Monitoring: Regular assessments and progress tracking ensure that the neurofeedback sessions align with your goals and lead to positive changes.
