Athletes use Neurofeedback to Increase Performance

Whether you are an athlete looking for a competitive edge or a fitness fanatic, you know the importance of maximizing your health. You spend hours in the gym training your body, but how many hours do you spend training your brain?

Let’s face it, performing at your peak comes with high demands. When you are in a prolonged state of stress due to the high demands of performing at an optimal level, your brain function is impacted. These physical, mental, and emotional impacts often steal your ability to succeed. The longer the impact, the greater the imbalance, which leads to decreased function and performance. This may cause result in:

  • Fitness plateau 
  • Muscle fatigue 
  • Lack of focus 
  • Forgetting key tasks
  • Mind racing a mile a minute
  • Concussions and brain trauma
How do irregular brain wave patterns affect athletic performance?

Our brains produce brain waves that control our behaviors and emotions. Due to our environment and the ongoing stressors impacting the body every second of every day, the body can become overloaded and our brainwaves can become abnormal. The longer the impact, the greater the imbalance, which leads to decreased function and performance.

Our brain produces brainwaves that communicate with one another at rapid speeds. However, if the timing of this communication is off even slightly, the ability to function at a maximum level can be impaired.

This creates abnormalities in attention, movement control and the ability to heal because our brainwaves cannot make the proper connections.
