Biofeedback & Neurofeedback put control in your hands
Biofeedback is a non-invasive way to help with sleep issues, pain, stress, anxious thoughts, focus challenges and other imbalances. It has been around since the 1950s and has always been customized to each individual’s unique objectives.
Biofeedback literally means using machines to “feed back” information of how the body responds to thinking, behavior, and emotions. By making changes in these, clients are able to take control of their autonomic (automatic) nervous system and brain.
Take a look at the Optimal Edge Performance website to learn more. Both Biofeeedback & Neurofeedback are offered at Optimal Edge Performance offices in OakBrook, IL and Chicago, IL.
Biofeedback
Biofeedback is a data driven process. Clients learn the optimal way to change their thoughts, actions and focus for the purpose of improving health and performance.
Depending on the goals set forth brainwaves, heart rate variability, respiration, skin temperature, muscle activity or skin conductance are measured. Each client is unique, but their body’s response is not; by learning to move to their own relaxation response sleep, a busy brain, pain and anxious thoughts fall into balance.
The data provides a guide and reinforcement for a client. Because of the direct connection between the brain and body the individual is able to take control of their personal outcome.
Neurofeedback
Also referred to as Brainwave Biofeedback is a data driven training using brainwave patterns. Clients learn to improve and strengthen brainwaves using feedback from the EEG due to the neuroplasticity of the brain. The goal is to bring the brain to a healthy balance.
Very sensitive listening sensors are placed on the scalp to record brainwave patters which the client can see on the computer screen. With the assistance of a coach each person learns how to meet the desired goals most effectively. With repetitive firing the brain learns and rewires itself in a totally non-invasive manner.
Neurofeedback is based on neuroscience, the study of the nervous system. The goal of neurofeedback is to optimize the electrical activity of the brain to take performance to a higher level.
