On the basis of this report the therapy may be adjusted.

Neurofeedback has been used for years by NASA and The Armed Forces.

Studies show Neurofeedback has been extremely successful in helping reduce anxiety, depression, ptsd, insomnia and add/adhd.

Pulse Electromagnetic Field Therapy (PEMF)-cellular communication is critical to the body’s adaptation, regulation and healing processes.  Healthy cellular communication is responsible for the overall health of the body by dealing with the causes and symptoms of cell deterioration and disease. Every single cell in the body communicates via electromagnetic fields. When these critical communications are disrupted or blocked the body’s cells, tissues and organs may be compromised and unhealthy symptoms follow.

A number of internal and environmental sources can contribute to the breakdown of the body cellular communication processes. Some of these sources include nutritional deficiencies, chemicals, toxins, genetics, emotional stressors and blocks at the subconscious level. Computers cell phones high power electrical lines microwaves and other common electronic devices over time also cause sensitivities and imbalances

During this therapy you are safely delivered very low intensity electromagnetic signals through frequencies. These signals create gentle electromagnetic field changes that encourage improved cellular communications within the body. More specifically PEMF signals target communication channels or biological windows that correlate with specific areas of the body and mind once this happened the body can more efficiently process the electrical and chemical exchanges associated with those channels and in dress imbalances or dysfunction of those areas. By facilitating cellular communications and supporting the body’s own adaptation and regulation activities body biofeedback can help accelerate healing, restore it or balance and return the body to a natural state of wellness.

Alpha-Stimulation

When you are in anxious and/or trauma activated states your brain is producing beta waves.  Beta waves are very high frequency low amplitude waves, allowing you to be ever vigilant and alert. To help the brain relax, the Alpha Stimulation mechanism stimulates the production of Alpha brain waves. Alpha waves have a lower frequency and higher amplitude which your brain uses to create a more relaxed state of being in your body and brain.  Alpha simulation allows your brain waves to shift into a more relaxed a suggestible state. It is in this state that we are able to receive information via a guided meditation, reading or even music that help us to alter our core messaging. In essence, your brain learns how to calm itself down. We provide a relaxing setting in our sunset beach room, our galaxy room, or the puzzle gallery.

Heartmath

Learn to change your heart rhythm pattern to create physiological coherence; a scientifically measurable state characterized by increased order and harmony in our mind, emotions and body. Through this special modality you can actually see on our monitor how your thoughts are effecting your heart rate and vice versa.

Most of us have been taught in school that the heart is constantly responding to “orders” sent by the brain in the form of neural signals. However, it is not as commonly known that the heart actually sends more signals to the brain than the brain sends to the heart! Moreover, these heart signals have a significant effect on brain function – influencing emotional processing as well as higher cognitive faculties such as attention, perception, memory, and problem-solving. In other words, not only does the heart respond to the brain, but the brain continuously responds to the heart.

HeartMath research has demonstrated that different patterns of heart activity (which accompany different emotional states) have distinct effects on cognitive and emotional function. During stress and negative emotions, when the heart rhythm pattern is erratic and disordered, the corresponding pattern of neural signals traveling from the heart to the brain inhibits higher cognitive functions. This limits our ability to think clearly, remember, learn, reason, and make effective decisions. (This helps explain why we may often act impulsively and unwisely when we’re under stress.) The heart’s input to the brain during stressful or negative emotions also has a profound effect on the brain’s emotional processes—actually serving to reinforce the emotional experience of stress.

In contrast, the more ordered and stable pattern of the heart’s input to the brain during positive emotional states has the opposite effect – it facilitates cognitive function and reinforces positive feelings and emotional stability. This means that learning to generate increased heart rhythm coherence, by sustaining positive emotions, not only benefits the entire body, but also profoundly affects how we perceive, think, feel, and perform. This is what we help you to do.

Muscle Massage Therapy/ Movement

Muscle Massage Therapy-For centuries we have known that our bodies are the storage lockers and keepers our tensions, anxieties, depression and trauma. Your bodies is direct connection  to your psyche and your well being. If you have had pain, your body is holding it for you.

Through the gentle relaxing of muscle tissue and fascia you are able to release toxins and trauma that have been long held in your physical body. By relaxing the body as well as the mind our internal circuits are in harmony, creating a sense of calm, well-being and peace.

MOVEMENT-Actual movement of your body is essential to releasing trapped energies stored in your muscles from anxiety, trauma and depression.  The movement techniques used at the center are nonstrenuous but very powerful in their ability to exercise toxic energy from your body and pull in positive, healthy, healing energy from the universe. Aspects of Qi gong, kundalini energy, sound healing and breath work are beautifully provided to you by our certified practitioner to help your body return to a natural and easy flow.

Olfactory Anxiety Reduction

The use of essential oils for therapeutic, spiritual, hygienic and ritualistic purposes goes back to ancient civilizations including the Chinese, Indians, Egyptians, Greeks.  Many studies, including those of cancer patients, have shown aromatherapy to lower anxiety and depression symptoms. Aromatherapy involves more than using lavender to help you sleep. Our olfactory senses are very powerful and have the ability to trigger or soothe anxiety, depression and trauma.

We use medical grade essential oils administered by our specialist who has worked with the cancer ward at St john’s hospital, as well the medical community in London where the efficacy of this modality is more readily available. Our process includes inhalers, diffusers and contact placement designed for you specifically.

Nutrition

Nutrition includes more than the physical food you eat. The food you eat is actually your secondary source of food. Your primary source of food is your emotional environment. This includes elements such as spiritual practice, inspiring career, regular and enjoyable physical activity, and honest, emotionally safe relationships that feed your soul and your hunger for living. When primary food is balanced and satiating, your life feeds you, making what you eat secondary. The more primary food we receive the last we depend on secondary food as a way of self-soothing. When our primary food is in order it is much easier feed ourselves actual food that our body needs to stay comfortable and healthy.

ENERGY WORK/REIKI/SOUND THERAPY

In addition to your physical body you have your energy body. There are many words for your energy body some prefer spirit, chi, soul, aura, prana… what you call it doesn’t matter, as long as you know how to communicate with and heal your energy body. We are energy more than we are anything else. Everything see feel touch and hear is energy. Beyond that there is energy that we cannot see, feel or touch, for example radio waves. We hear radio waves because we know how to access them. You have felt your own invisible energy when someone and instantly get a bad feeling. Your energy body connected with their energy body and it was not a harmonious connection. The entire universe is made up of energy and connections. Through modalities like Reiki, chakra work and sound energy you have the chance to balance the energy in your body, mind and spirit. The energy that you interact with creates positive and negative exchanges with you and your energy. It is important to fortify your own energy with strength, love and wisdom, so that you can navigate your life more harmonic balance.

MEDITATION AND PRAYER

There have been many studies that show hope is an essential component of healing. There is something about us as human beings that need hope. We all need hope. We need spirituality. We need to be able to trust that no matter what, you will be okay. And you are. And you will be. But why settle for okay?  The universe wants you to have abundance in everything. Abundance in health, love, money…whatever it is you hold dear to your heart- it is available to you in abundance. You just need to know how to feel it and access it. Just like you can access music on a radio wave. Anxiety, depression and trauma have tuned your frequencies to sadness and worry.

When life has dealt you many blows you begin to believe negative thoughts that accompany moments of trauma like “I don’t matter”, “Nobody cares if I get hurt”, “I have no purpose” “There is no hope”. This is the result of bad experiences from other people, that you have learned to tell yourself. These kinds of thoughts and traumas tear away at hope. making you feel like your belief in hope is gone. Hope is never gone, even if it feels like it. You can always raise your vibration to a higher place where hope can be experienced in all its greatness.

We are sure that at some point in your life you’ve experienced the magic that I’m speaking of. Maybe you still revel at it. Maybe you have passed it off as coincidence as time passed. But when you felt it the first time it was very real and very powerful.

Even the trauma that has brought you to be reading this right now, has let you know that you made it through, whatever that pain was enough, to reach out for help.

Faith is more tangible than you realize, if you trust it when you experience it. If you touch a hot stove and burn yourself as a child you trust and believe that touching a hot stove will burn you. There is no need to repeat the experiment to see if you imagined it. Faith is as tangible as a hot stove if you really take note of its presence. It is a much subtler dimension than the first five senses are able to experience, but it is just as real and far more powerful.
