A brain that is trained to be more efficient will accomplish more and with greater accuracy. It is no accident that neurofeedback is a fundamental tool in Olympic sports psychology training.

A prolonged stress response is common for individuals who are faced with the demands of performing at peak levels for extended periods – especially in the arena of professional sports and the film and music industries.

The top performer in any field recognizes the need to coach the mind as diligently as he or she trains the body. What distinguishes the best from those in lesser positions are is motivation, concentration, stability under pressure, and proper handling of emotions when challenged. It is no wonder neurofeedback is fast becoming a training standard in the realm of professional sports and increasingly, in the community of executive business leaders.
Much has been made of Olympic beach volleyball champion Kerri Walsh-Jennings incorporating neurofeedback into her training routine. Alexandre Bilodeau, the Canadian men’s mogul champion credited his two gold medals to neurofeedback. By teaching his brain how to handle anxiety effectively, he was able to relax in between runs. When it was time to race, he was able to to concentrate at sustained levels. The NHL’s Vancouver Canucks, after a 20-year post-season drought, skated their way to a 2011 Stanley Cup championship. What was the difference in their training? Neurofeedback. Similarly, the national soccer team of Italy kicked up their performance by using neurofeedback and took home the World Cup in 2006.
