Neuro Feedback Training

Here is Taisei during his neuro feedback training with Dr. John. With a properly functioning brain, many parts of the brain work together to serve your basic needs like eat, walk and talk.  But because of his head injury, Taisei's brain is somewhat disorganized and "out of tune."  Neuro feedback training measures his brain waves and uses a stimulus (sound) as feedback to teach his brain to self-correct.  (Just like tuning a piano with a metronome.)  When Dr. John saw Taisei for the first time, he told us that his brain was in a state of complete confusion and disorder with a possibility of seizures.  After almost 6 years of training, Taisei's brain is more organized and he has been seizure-free!  Plus we have seen big improvements in his cognitive abilities.
