NeurOptimal® Trainers Around the World

My son started neurofeedback because of vocal tics, communication difficulties, and problems at school. Soon after beginning neurofeedback, we started noticing a reduction in tics and his teacher started reporting better days at school. Now a month after his last session he comes home and proudly tells me how well he’s doing at school!

I had this young client, a boy, 10 years old; Parents divorced, it was very difficult for him. A “tic” with his eyes every 30 seconds. Could not say what was happening at his father’s house. No concentration at school. After 1 session! No more “tic”(rolling his eyes) at all, only a few times a week, when very stressed.

My daughter was experiencing stress at school and it was coming out in her body in the form of movement tics. Every few minutes she would stretch her neck. She had no control or awareness of how often she was doing it. After 3 sessions these tics were gone completely!
