Adults

UR Wellness offers Neurofeedback, Craniosacral Therapy and Reflexology to adults. Neurofeedback is our most popular service. It is a pleasant, effortless, noninvasive approach to health and well-being that uses information from a person’s brainwaves to give feedback to the brain. While sitting in a comfortable chair watching a moving picture on a screen and listening to music, you will see changes in the images and hear brief pauses in the music.  This is the computer system giving feedback to your brain. This feedback (the absence of sound and pictures) re-trains your brainwaves into a more balanced pattern.  The results can be seen in the areas of athletics, academics, and work.  Many adults choose to combine Neurofeedback with Craniosacral therapy or Reflexology for a blissful healing experience.

Clients report the following in the areas of athletic, academic and career pursuits:

Anyone wanting to improve their sleep

Insomnia can mean you have trouble falling asleep, your sleep is easily disturbed by light or sound, or you experience very restless, agitated or dream-disturbed sleep. Your sleep can be impacted by many different things. While all our healing modalities assist with getting a good night’s sleep, Neurofeedback is our featured service for symptoms of poor sleep.  One of the main reasons why Neurofeedback works, is that it allows your body to regulate your circadian rhythm or sleep cycles/biological clock.

Not getting enough sleep can cause such symptoms as:

• lack of energy
• lack of focus
• irritability and anxiousness
• impaired immune system
• inability to deal with stress
• headaches and body aches
• other nagging health conditions
