Neural Wellness uses LENS Neurofeedback technology to treat stress, anxiety, pain, insomnia, PTSD, and much more. What is LENS? LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback System) is an exceedingly mild form of non-cognitive biofeedback. Typical biofeedback requires the recipient to watch a computer screen while engaging in a mental process that feeds back information to the computer and results in changes in the screen images. LENS is non-cognitive, which means that the client does not have to do anything but sit quietly in the treatment chair. How does it work? The emerging science of brain plasticity is at the core of this treatment, suggesting that the brain changes and adapts throughout life, rather than reaching ‘stasis’ (static state) in adulthood. Neurofeedback practitioners theorize that the brain, in sensing its own activity, will be stimulated to repair the damaged neural pathways to function at an optimal level. LENS Neurofeedback uses a frequency that correlates with the individual’s dominant brainwave frequency. During this process, brain waves either reduce or increase in power, depending on the brain’s specific regulation needs. Sounds interesting. But what can it help with? Everything from stress and anxiety to insomnia and migraines, chronic pain and addiction, even traumatic brain injury and PTSD. LENS is an incredibly powerful tool, and the potential it has to help people is huge. Practices like yoga, meditation and talk-therapy or health counseling are powerful for alleviating chronic stress conditions, growing emotional self-awareness and creating new neural pathways in the brain. LENS isn't a replacement for other therapies. Rather, LENS makes these practices even more powerful as LENS rewires the brain to re-energize itself to stay present, focused and put everything that life throws at us in it's place.
