How it works a session

Measurement of brain activity

Small sensors (electrodes) in the scalp capture the brain's electrical activity — similar to an EEG.

Feedback in real time

You see a game, movie, or graphic that responds to your brain activity. When the brain reaches desired patterns, it receives positive reinforcement.

Learning and self-regulation

With practice, the brain learns to maintain these patterns even without feedback — a lasting improvement.

How does a Neurofeedback session work?

Sensors are placed on the head to record brain activity. It interacts with visual or auditory stimuli that adjust brain activity in real time, helping the brain learn new, healthier patterns. The process is painless, non-invasive, and completely safe.

How many sessions are needed?

It varies from person to person, but significant improvements are usually observed within 10 to 20 sessions. More complex cases may require longer follow-up.

Does it have side effects?

No. It only trains the brain. Some people may experience mild fatigue or deep relaxation after the first few sessions—adapting to new patterns.

Are the results permanent?

Yes, in many cases the benefits are long-lasting. The gains tend to be maintained over time. Periodic reinforcements may be recommended in complex situations.

Can it be used on children?

Yes. It's safe for all ages and can be very effective in children and adolescents — especially for ADHD, anxiety, learning difficulties, and emotional regulation.

Does it improve cognitive performance?

Yes. In addition to helping with emotional and neurological challenges, it can enhance cognitive functions such as memory, focus, decision-making, and creativity—used by athletes and high-performance professionals.
