Aging is marked by the decline of certain cognitive functions such as attention, memory, processing speed, planning ability, organization and cognitive flexibility. This decline can result in difficulties performing tasks such as remembering a message/appointment, driving, taking medication and managing finances.
In the process of aging, some functions reach their peak and begin to decline after high school, while others peak in adulthood and start declining at around 30 years old. On the other hand, some of these cognitive functions only reach their maximum potential around the age of 40. However, whenever an individual feels a decrease in their ability to perform a task, treatment should be seeked: the earlier the intervention, the less loss there will be in terms of the cognitive function in question.
Through cognitive rehabilitation, it is possible to minimize the impact of aging on cognitive functions and maintain these results for years, thus allowing a person to remain independent and autonomous in their daily activities.
Currently, the Neurofeedback technique demonstrates quite positive results when used for Neurocognitive Rehabilitation, with a significant impact primarily on attention stimulation.
At NeuroImprove Clinic, we provide a cognitive rehabilitation and stimulation service that integrates the neuropsychological aspect (application of stimulation and neuropsychological rehabilitation exercises) and the Neurofeedback technique. This combination allows us to design a personalized and efficient program that aims to improve cognitive functions. Our goal is to minimize the impact of cognitive changes in daily life, allowing well-being and maintaining independence in performing daily activities.
During the Cognitive Rehabilitation process, we conduct Psychology sessions for cognitive stimulation and other clinically significant areas, and we also perform Neurofeedback sessions, ensuring that we address all the individual's needs.
In the cognitive stimulation sessions, exercises targeting specific cognitive functions such as attention, memory, language, reasoning, and problem-solving are executed.
The goal of these sessions is the neuropsychological rehabilitation of these functions, and the objective of Neurofeedback sessions is to minimize significant changes in the brain's activity pattern, slowing down the decline in brain function.
