In this small, privately run clinic, Neurofeedback treatment is conducted 1:1 with your child for a total of around 40 half-hour sessions. During this time, using brain-wave biofeedback (neurofeedback) the brain learns how to achieve a healthier state of arousal. (Usually, in the case of ADHD, this will mean learning to produce more fast brain wave activity and less slow activity.) The ability to attend and learn follows.
Sessions are charged at ?40 each and the recommended frequency is two sessions per week.
