Neurocare has been in operation since 1997 in Brisbane, and we were excited
to make Perth the location of our second clinic in 2006. In the past we have
worked extensively with both children and adults exhibiting neurological
challenges such as ADD/ADHD, head injury, learning difficulties, stroke,
autism/aspergers, depression, anxiety and many others.
 
Neurofeedback is an amazing new technology in which information about brain
activity is fed back to the central nervous system. The brain then uses this
information to re-organise itself and its function. When this happens a broad
array of seemingly unrelated symptoms – cognitive, emotional and physical –
can be resolved. In recent years the field of Neurotherapy has made significant
findings demonstrating efficacy in improving the above conditions.
 
In fact, Dr Frank H. Duffy, a Professor and Pediatric Neurologist at Harvard
Medical School, stated in an editorial in the January 2000 issue of the journal
Clinical Electroencephalography that Neurotherapy “should play a major
therapeutic role in many difficult areas. In my opinion, if any medication had demonstrated such a wide spectrum of efficacy it would be universally accepted and widely used” (p. v). “It is a field to be taken seriously by all” (p. vii).
 
Neurotherapy works impressively as a stand-alone or adjunctive therapy with many healing modalities including Occupational and Speech therapy, Medicative and Nutritional support, Physiotherapy and Psychotherapy among others. Other aspects of learning such as improved memory, attention/concentration, processing speed, emotional stability, improved sleep and peak performance may also be improved using this technology.
 
At Neurocare we strive to provide a professional and compassionate approach to helping clients achieve the goals in self-regulation and healing of their mind and body.
