Why Balance My Brain?
Brain Balancing is training your brain & body to improve overall function and leads to improvement in how you feel and perform in your everyday life. Everyday stress & traumas can cause your brain's regulatory system to become sluggish, resulting in poor sleep, decreased concentration, racing thoughts & poor lifestyle habits. When you learn to balance your brain, it can provide a foundation for growth and stability. When you train your brain, you will sleep better and feel less overwhelmed.
​
Our intuitive method of brain balancing combines holistic western approaches, biofeedback technology, somatic psychology & other healing practices to access the mind and body at its full capacity. Our feature service is neurofeedback, which is brainwave biofeedback. We provide an integrative approach, addressing the gut-brain connection, which can assist you to create healthy habits for optimal wellness.
What is Neurofeedback Brain Training?
Neurofeedback is exercise for your brain. Using computer technology, your brain activity is monitored in real time using state-of-the art biofeedback equipment. You sit in a reclining chair with sensors on your head & ears to monitor your brain activity. While listening to music via a headset, the electrical signal of your brain is measured. Using the audio & visuals from the brain training software, you can observe your brain activity and optimize your mindset. When the Neurofeedback software senses that your brain is in a calmer, more relaxed state, the images flow, and the music plays. When the Neurofeedback software senses that your brain is in a less relaxed state, the images and music are interrupted. The interruptions in the visual and audio act as signals for your brain to “re set” itself, allowing your brain to reorganize itself into a more natural, relaxed, and effective pattern. After a session, you will emerge feeling refreshed, relaxed and in a higher state of mental alertness.
​
Neurofeedback Brain Balancing is exercising your brain and it is not a treatment. Most people will see results within 1-3 training sessions. Lasting results are often achieved with a series of 20 Neurofeedback sessions. Children with attention and focus issues and those seeking symptom resolution from chronic health conditions may require 40 + sessions. Many people choose to engage in 40+ sessions as they explore their personal evolution. Your results may vary according to your goals and individual response to training. Call to book a complimentary 20-minute Discovery Call and discuss your training needs with our nurse.
Our training is a tool and does not diagnose or diagnose any medical conditions.
Can You Help Me If I Have A Health Condition?
While our services can provide physiological assistance and help people learn to change their responses to stress, they are not treatments. With our techniques & assistance you can develop the skills you need to balance your integrated brain to reduce or eliminate unwanted physical/emotional symptoms and patterns. Our clients report sleeping better, feeling less anxious, feeling calmer, more grounded and confident. As a result, physical symptoms associated with many health conditions drop away.

Are Your Programs Covered By Extended Health Coverage?
Our services are usually not covered by extended health care plans. Sometimes Neurofeedback, Craniosacral Therapy & Stress Management Services are reimbursed under employee flexible healthcare accounts. We encourage you to check with your provider. Our trainers are Registered Nurses. Our center provides packages to lower your costs. We find that our brain balancing pricing is comparable to other centers that provide extended coverage, as most health plans cover a limited number of training sessions.

Michelle, Vancouver
Learning to be more present for myself has been the greatest gift to my family. Trusting and forming a new connection with my body’s own inner wisdom helped me create new healthy self-care habits that nourish my body, mind, and soul.

"I felt so relaxed and calm today after my brain training session. I feel much more refreshed in the morning, and I don't need coffee to start my day"
Alan, Vancouver
I can’t believe how my productivity at work has improved. I don’t have brain fog in the mornings from lack of sleep and I need less of my ADHD medication.”
