Who invented NeurOptimal?

Val Brown, along with his wife, Dr. Sue Brown, developed Neuroptimal®, an outside-the-box form of neurofeedback that draws on multiple scientific disciplines. Dr. Val Brown has a background in clinical psychology, quantum mechanics and mathematics, computer programming, philosophy, and martial arts.

Is NeurOptimal safe?

Is NeurOptimal® Safe for Children? NeurOptimal® is safe for children. To explain why, I need to explain briefly how neurofeedback works. NeurOptimal® works by giving the individual’s brain feedback about its moment-to-moment brain wave activity.

How often can you use NeurOptimal?

How often do I need to train? Many people find that once or twice a week is sufficient, but depending on your situation you may want to train as often as 3-4 times per week, or as little as once a month. Training can be done as frequently as once or even twice a day.
