What We Do
Optimal Brain Function
We love working with adults and children on creating a new normal.
- Neurofeedback
- Backed by internationally recognized mathematically based research, Neurofeedback uses EEG like technology. We use Neuroptimal which works by monitoring the electrical activity coming from the Central Nervous System. Neuroptimal provides a mirror like affect to the brain which allows your brain to recognize opportunity for change and retrain itself to create a more effective presence. Neuroptimal uses a dynamic process that follows the ever changing cortical activity patterns that allows the brain to re-normalize. The Family Healing Centre uses Neurofeedback to work with Autism Traumatic Brain Injury, Depression, Anxiety, ADD/ADHD, Sleep Disorders, Pain, PTSD, OCD and many more..
- Theraputic Listening
- This is a results driven therapy based on the published research by Dr. Alfred Tomatis, Theraputic Listening is used for people that have sound sensitivity, learning disabiities, ADHD, Autism, Sensory Processing, Dyslexia and many more... By introducing the brain to different frequencies in the comfort of your own home, Theraputic Listening works to train the brain to open up areas that are currently not functioning at full capacity. Therapeutic Listening is a specific sound-based intervention that is embedded in a developmental and sensory integration perspective. The music in Therapeutic Listening gives the listener unique and precisely controlled sensory information. The music is electronically modified to highlight the parts of the sound spectrum that naturally capture attention and activate body movement, synchronizing it with the environment. Therapeutic Listening uses electronic modifications, along with the organized, rhythmical sound patterns inherent in music, to trigger the self-organizing capacities of the nervous system.

FAQ's
Is neurofeedback painful?
No! In fact it is very relaxing. The hardest part of the treatment is to keep your head mostly still!
How many sessions does it take?
It is difficult to accurately predict because everyone's brain presents differently but expect to complete a minimum of 10 sessions. Many people go to 20 or 30 sessions - or continue indefinitely!
How should Io expect to feel after Neurofeedback?
Each session is like a building block. Many people feel very relaxed and more mentally clear immediately after a session. Some don't feel anything until the next day or a couple of days. People often report better sleep and a feeling of peace. We can talk through your specific situation and track your progress as we complete sessions. We have never had a client tell us they felt worse after Neurofeedback!
