Vital Brain Health offers different types of support, each serving a different purpose. Some of the support options you may be recommended include:

Neurofeedback

Neurofeedback utilizes advanced brain training to optimize your brain’s natural function using real‒time feedback.This can help the different parts of your brain communicate more effectively, which in turn improves focus, emotional regulation, and cognitive performance. Best of all, no part of this process requires medication.

Biofeedback

Biofeedback involves retraining involuntary brain activity and physical responses. This helps clients learn to control things like their breathing and heart rate, which can help calm turbulent emotions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, our Neurofeedback 3.0 approach helps clients of all ages become skilled mansion managers, teaching their brains to optimize communication systems across all channels. For children, we specialize in helping those with emotional dysregulation, autism spectrum differences, and sensory processing challenges.

Many individuals have combinations of brain room patterns that create what are often called "co-morbidities"—such as people with both autism and anxiety, or individuals with ADHD and emotional dysregulation. Our Neurofeedback 3.0 integrated multi-modal approach is particularly well-suited for supporting people with these complex, overlapping patterns because we can target multiple room combinations simultaneously.

Vital Brain Health stands apart as Los Angeles' premier evidence-based neurofeedback center through our Neurofeedback 3.0 approach—an integrated multi-modal training system that represents a comprehensive meta-strategy pulling from many forms of analysis and neurofeedback tools. While other practices use basic single-method training, we strategically combine multiple analysis methods including AI-based analysis, network connectivity assessment, normative database comparisons, and symptom tracking to create the most personalized and effective training for each individual. When standard treatments and budget neurofeedback options have failed, discerning families and individuals choose us for results-driven, scientifically-validated training.
