Direct Neurofeedback: How it Works

How Direct LENS Neurofeedback Works

Direct LENS Neurofeedback uses sensors placed on ones head to monitor brainwave activity and provide real-time feedback to the brain through gentle electrical impulses that the person can't feel. This process helps the brain learn to regulate itself more effectively, improving symptoms such as anxiety, depression, and ADHD. 

The LENS system is a painless form of neurofeedback that is effective for a wide range of mental health conditions. Direct LENS Neurofeedback is often used with other forms of therapy to provide a comprehensive treatment plan for individuals seeking relief from their symptoms. 

Sessions run 30 minutes. Number of sessions ranges from 9-11 on average. The LENS works well with problems of the Central Nervous System, which can be numerous. These include symptoms of anxiety-depression spectrum, attention deficits, behavior disorders, various sleep disorders, headaches and migraines, PMS and emotional disturbances. It is also useful for organic brain conditions such as seizures, the autism spectrum, and cerebral palsy. These are all signs of Central Nervous System dysfunction which result in the body’s difficulty regulating itself.
