LEARNING DISABILITIES PRESENT BARRIERS AT EVERY STAGE OF LIFE

While there are a variety of learning disabilities, such as dyslexia, math disabilities or general learning disabilities, most cases involve too much slow brainwave activity. This increased presence of slow brainwaves causes interruptions in the communication bewteen various brain regions, thus affecting learning networks in the brain.

TREATMENTS CAN INCLUDE A COMBINATION OF THE FOLLOWING:

  • Psychotherapy (in person or virtual)
  • Neurofeedback

NEUROFEEDBACK AND LEARNING DISABILITIES

Neurofeedback works to reshape and retrain your brain by regulating brain patterns that lead to the symptoms of learning disabilities. Neurofeedback enhances brain activity, such as increasing brainwave activity that is responsible for focused thought, improved reasoning, and feeling alert. This is brain activity that is often dysregulated when you have a learning disability. Neurofeedback also helps smooth your brain’s communication through its neural networks, helping your brain improve its processing of information.

WHAT TO EXPECT WITH NEUROFEEDBACK

Neurofeedback is very successful in regulating brainwave patterns. Those who have completed Neurofeedback treatment for a learning disability have seen improvements in attention and working memory, as well as improvements in symptoms related to their learning disability. Neurofeedback has, in one study, shown a 400% improvement in reading memory, a 109% increase in reading ability, and a 250% increase in reading comprehension. Through Neurofeedback treatment, your brain will understand and interpret new information more easily and will lower the barriers raised by a learning disability.
