I am constantly amazed and pleased by the dramatic and quickly-realized positive impact LENS Neurofeedback has on the majority of my patients’ health; patients of all ages, with problems ranging from ADHD/learning disorders to anger, Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) to Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), anxiety to depression, fibromyalgia to migraine, and more.
This website has links to both radio and TV interviews I did, and includes articles (here and here) that I have written about LENS that will answer most of your questions. Continue reading below to learn more about LENS.
I also welcome the opportunity to meet with you to explain how LENS may help, to see if you are a good candidate for LENS treatment, and to share with you my patient successes.
My greatest success is my patients’ health and well-being. I would be honored to work with you with LENS to see if I can help.
LENS: the neurofeedback system that enables the brain to optimize itself
LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback System) “acts like a catalyst that activates the brain’s own capacity for self-regulation,” to restore optimal brain function.
Neuroscientists believe that the brain’s defense against significant stressors and trauma creates neural gridlock. The LENS is so subtle that it can work around these defenses.
Addressing the brain in its own electromagnetic language, LENS seems to open the way for the brain to defragment and reboot to optimize its function.
Clearing the neural gridlock improves the flow of neural traffic, resulting in increased energy levels, improved mental clarity, focus and mood, better sleep, and a decrease in anxiety/depression, and brain-generated pain associatedwith fibromyalgia and migraine.
Many people see broad improvements within the first 2 to 4 sessions.
LENS is Unique
Unlike traditional biofeedback in which you have to actively train to regulate your brainwaves, LENS is passive. All you do is sit there. For a fraction of a second, a tiny and imperceptible electromagnetic signal (1/1000th of what surrounds your cell phone) is delivered.Your brain interacts with the signal on its own and self-rectifies. You don’t do, feel, or take anything.
LENS patient results speak for themselves
29 year old male: chronic anxiety
“I am more calm and more focused. I feel that my mind and thoughts are normal and more balanced.”
60 year old female: chronic fibromyalgia
“I have a decrease in overall pain. I feel more aware and brighter. I have increased energy.”
16 year old male: anxiety, anger, apathy
“I feel calmer now, much better, less introverted. I have never been so content. No paranoia.”
68 year old female: multiple brain injuries, PTSD
“My body feel more relaxed. I feel mellow. It feels as though my entire body has undergone ‘spell-check’.”
15 year old: Tourette’s Syndrome (father’s observations after 5 visits)
“Eye blinking and mouth movement is 99% non-existent. His spirits and outlook have improved dramtically. There is hope. His compulsive reactions have also decreased…better self-control.”
LENS: “It’s not magic, but it is miraculous!”
- The average number of sessions to restore “brain homeostasis”(optimal functioning) is between 15 and 20 but, most people experience noticeable improvement in only 4-6 sessions!
- More significant problems like severe familial depression, autism, post-stroke recovery, or significant brain injury may take longer.
- LENS can also help with peak performance, or enhance psychotherapy, meditation or spiritual practice.
LENS: Individualized, patient-driven care
Developing your treatment plan is a two-way feedback process, just like the system itself.
The first visit takes about 45-60 minutes. Intake forms and a one-on-one discussion help us determine your treatment goals and our parameters and protocols for care.
We then map your brain and begin treatment. The LENS uses bi-directional leads and sensors to analyze and capture EEG/dominant brainwave signals, and then uses this information to guide the feedback. You do not feel or do anything.
Subsequent visits take 15-30 minutes, in which time we discuss your treatment response, make any appropriate changes in protocols, and continue to treat.
