In-Home Autism Treatment in Louisvile, KY
Symptoms of autism spectrum disorder (ASD) normally emerge around the age of two or three. These symptoms include: inappropriate social interaction, poor eye contact, compulsive behavior, impulsivity, repetitive movements, self-harm, or persistent repetition of words or actions, learning disability or speech delay in a child. Other common symptoms are anxiety, irregular mood patterns, intense interest, or problems paying attention. Often time's, individuals on the Autism Spectrum are also unaware of others' emotions.
If your child is on the autism spectrum, you don't have to rely on medication for treatment. Contact Braincore Neurofeedback of Louisville.
We offer neurofeedback to help correct abnormal brain wave patterns often associated with ASD symptoms.
We also provide in-home neurofeedback training. In home Braincore Neurofeedback is great for those individuals/families that have busy lives, and unable to come to our facility on a weekly basis.
What Is Neurofeedback?
BrainCore Neurofeedback is a passive, noninvasive therapy, which teaches self-control of brain functions in children and or adults. At BrainCore of Louisville we use state-of-the-art equipment to help shift how your child's brain uses its electrical energies. It does this by measuring their brain waves and providing a feedback signal. Our Neurofeedback system provides the audio and or video feedback. Positive or negative feedback is produced for desirable or undesirable brain activities. As the brain continues to repeat this therapy, better self-regulation occurs and unwanted symptoms (i.e. anxiety, depression, ADHD, etc.) associated with ASD and other conditions will decrease.
What Is a Session Like?
We will hook up your child to a few wires and sensors so that we can watch their brain activity. Our Braincore software will detect when the brain is functioning properly and then reward your child with a movie, game, or sound. So your child controls the reward with their brainwaves. This helps their brain learn how to improve its own function, which can help with the symptoms of ASD.
