It is commonly believed that impaired blood flow in the brain causes most brain disorders. Similar to how infrared light therapy helps heal the human body, Photobiomodulation, also known as PBM, can help with cognitive performance, sleep, several brain-based disorders and more by increasing cerebral blood flow in a noninvasive fashion. It also reduces oxidative stress and neuroinflammation. PBM can be used independently, or prior to your Neurofeedback session as a means to prep your brain so it can be at its best state for Neurofeedback.
The science behind Photobiomodulation is simple.
On a cellular level, light penetrates into the mitochondria of the cell increasing mitochondria function along with blood circulation in the brain. The actual term Photobiomodulation translates into light, life and change. For more information about PBM, please view the video below.
There are many PBM devices on the market and some are not as effective as others. At Brain Shift Colorado you can feel safe knowing you are using devices that are backed with years of research. We can also match and tailor a device that works for your individual performance needs at our location for a discounted rate.
