Number and pace of Neurofeedback® sessions
Central nervous system reactions are specific and unique to each individual. Each brain works at its own pace, knows its intervention priorities, and knows which directions it should take. We cannot therefore predict the time that your brain will need.
A cure of 10 sessions can be recommended. The rhythm of the sessions is 1, possibly 2 per week which can then be spaced out.
There is no addiction to aux Neurofeedback sessions.
Practitioners using this equipment in the United States and Europe report an 80% satisfaction rate.
Dynamical Neurofeedback® is based on 3 main principles
Self-regulation, or homeostasis
As with the body, which constantly regulates its parameters, the brain also has regulatory mechanisms. These variations are always between two limits, lower and upper, which define a zone of good functioning of this parameter, it is the zone of "viability" or "variability", which allows us to stay alive. However, it happens that this regulation is disturbed by attacks, shocks, traumatisms of any nature… causing disorders and discomforts of variable intensity, of somatic, cognitive or emotional order.
Neuroplasticity
The brain is constantly changing and adapting to what is happening inside the body and outside, to the surrounding environment. It is always looking for efficiency and therefore changes its parameters all the time by managing its own regulation in a global way. He has an essential ability to change. Neuronal Plasticity or cerebral plasticity is the ability of the brain to modify itself by creating, undoing or reorganizing networks of neurons.
The Brain is thus qualified as “plastic” or “malleable”. This phenomenon occurs during embryonic development, childhood, adult life, learning, and “pathological conditions (lesions and diseases). Neuronal plasticity is one of the most important recent discoveries in neuroscience, and shows that the brain is a dynamic system in perpetual reconfiguration.
learning
The brain is always in search of learning, and is always capable of learning, whatever its state. This learning leads to organizational changes that can have effects in very different areas (cognitive, emotional, physical) and regulate other systems in our body (cardiac, hormonal, immune system, etc.). Our brain closely or remotely controls all these systems.
It was thought until 20 years ago that the brain was no longer enriched at the age of 25. Well, that's not the case. It is thanks to glial cells, which are mostly present in the brain, that neurons renew themselves if they are stimulated, and at all ages, and this "regrowth" provides well-being. Unfortunately, we tend to reduce the activity of our brain due to our own limitations, our beliefs, while the search for novelty, reflection, wonder, escape from routine... maintain the good health of our brain. of our body, of our soul. Finally, our brain works at 100% of its capacity, whether we are awake or asleep. Only 10% of this activity is accessible to consciousness.
How does a Neurofeedback® session take place?
-
Comfortably seated in an armchair, you watch a movie or listen to music for thirty-three minutes.
-
Two sensors placed on the skull and three on the ears allow the system to measure and analyze cortical activity. Each time a fluctuation is detected, a microcut in the soundtrack occurs.
-
The central nervous system (SNC) being informed of any variability, interprets this "sound difference" as a relevant message allowing him to rebalance himself in order to return to his optimal functioning
