Strengthen your brain today! Neurofeedback is a way to rewire the brain. Instead of temporarily masking symptoms with medications, neurofeedback aims to rewire the brain so it can work at its maximum function. Changes can be permanent; however, just like the rest of the body sometimes you need a “tune up”. Common reasons that require a “tune up” include:

🤕Head Trauma-kid running and hitting their head on the wall, getting hit by a ball, car accident ect.

😷Sickness- sicknesses that attacked the brain: strep throat, encephalitis, tick bite ect.

🧠Chronic Conditions- Parkinson’s Disease, Alzheimer’s Disease, Multiple Sclerosis ‼️neurofeedback can help slow the decline ‼️

🪦Major Life Changing Event- death in the family or severe trauma.

All of these may cause change to the brain annrequire a few tune-up sessions to get the brain back to where it should be.

My kids have had a lot of strep throat this year but since their last strep case a month ago. The last Neurofeedback session I did on my son was 3 weeks ago. We are back to his “baseline” or where he was prior to strep throat.

👯‍♂️In Dance Conditioning Class yesterday the girls had a few minutes at the end of class where they picked what they wanted to do and they decided to play telephone. Of course it’s not in my nature to just sit and play so we took the time to point out their sitting posture while they were playing.

🧘‍♀️I made the girls sit up straight then pointed out when they all slouched again 5-10 seconds later. I educated them on how much weight your head puts on the spine. I then told them this is why we do the exercises we do in class.

How long can you sit in good posture without a break? Comment Below⬇️

Friday’s Trivia Answer: The Neuronic Red Light Helmet can be used without Neurofeedback; however, the two work even better when used together. Using the Red Light Helmet prior to neurofeedback decreases inflammation in the brain and improves energy at the mitochondria level to make Neurofeedback sessions even more effective. That being said I have put the red light helmet on my son prior to school when I can tell he is grumpy to calm him so his teacher has a happier, calmer and more focused Evan. It only takes 9 minutes and there is nothing to clean out of his hair! He can watch tv and eat while wearing it so it’s a win win.

My kids have had a lot of strep throat the last few months. I have taught them the Wong Baker Pain Scale. I have had multiple health professionals say wait your kids know how to use a 0-10 pain scale and chuckle. As a physical therapist and a mom who has been to the doctors office about 8 times due to strep throat since the New Year I have taught them how to be accurate as a way to monitor the sore throats. I have them rate their throat daily 0-10. My son once told me the pain was 100. I get this often from patients which made me laugh. I told my kids 10 means you were hit by a truck, broke multiple bone and need to go to the hospital. My son then replied well what’s a 1? I showed him this pain scale he said ooo so 1 is you got hit by 1 donut. I laughed and said sure buddy. He said oh I got it and getting a box of donuts thrown at you is 5/10🤣 and 7 boxes would definitely be a 7/10 because that would make you cry but not as much as a car hitting you. We laughed but he understood the pain scale much better after this.

😁🥲🤕This is a great scale that all kids and adults should know. If you ever need to reference it quickly just google pain scale. Kids can point to the face, say the color of the face, say a numer or say mild/moderate/severe to rate their pain.

📱They also have made versions for screen time to check in with kids to help them stay regulated which I will post in the comments because as a mom with kids who enjoy screens this is also another great assessment tool⬇️
