Biofeedback and Neurofeedback for Mind, Body & Spirit
Louise Ellis is an experienced BASES Accredited Sport & Exercise Scientist CSci (Psychology Support), and in 2009 became the first accredited sports scientist in the UK to creatively apply the latest APA approved biofeedback and Neurofeedback training and monitoring to support athletes. To date, Louise is still one of few accredited sports scientists using this specialist area and has worked with hundreds of professional and elite athletes – supporting them with mental preparation, performance and recovery. Biofeedback is a process of monitoring body responses, such as muscle tension & fatigue, Galvanic skin response (emotional and stress response training), heart rate variability, breathing / respiration, body temperature, and electrical activity of the brain – known as Neurofeedback.
It is widely regarded that when a person experiences a change in their mental or emotional state, whether conscious or unconscious, there is a change in the physiological state. The same applies when a person experiences a physiological change – there is a simultaneous change in mental and emotional state. Using the latest biofeedback and Neurofeedback technology, Louise provides individuals with tangible evidence about their psycho-physiological responses so they can learn a variety of techniques to self regulate the brain and body for greater well being.
Louise’s work ranges from teaching individuals how to reduce muscular tension and stress levels, improve brain or meditative states, lower respiration & heart rates and provide regular tangible evidence to the individual during self regulation sessions.
