peak performance
-- "get your head in the game"
Step up your performance without drugs. We offer a
number of techniques to help you reach your peak performance. Performance is
more than just a physical act. Performance requires harmony between the
mind and body. At the Wyatt Group, we help you exercise the mind so that you can
achieve
a
mind-body harmony. Peak performance training applies to sports, academics,
work and other daily tasks. By achieving a state of "calm" and
"readiness," you develop the ability to react to the ordinary stresses of life
or when necessary the extreme stresses in sports, academic or work performance.
Some of the instruments used at the Wyatt Group are:
Makotoฎ:
Interaction of mind and body --this instrument is uses sensory integration
therapy to tune gross motor skills in association with mental acuity (neurology)
to reach peak performance. Makoto "increases the neurological connections
between the brain and the body resulting in improved mental acuity, cognitive
ability, reaction time and overall better coordination and performance."
Makoto is used by professional sports teams in Denver, St. Louis and Pittsburgh
and by coaches and rehab specialist across the country.
Makotoฎ is a fitness game, but for mental training. It gives "players" a great cardio workout, but the primary health benefit of makoto is the improvement of the neurological link between the brain and body. By improving communication between the brain and body, drastic improvements can be achieved in:
eye-hand coordination
focus and concentration
quickness and reaction time
mental acuity
stress reduction
"1st step" speed and much more!
Makoto is used by professional and collegiate sports teams,
health clubs, chiropractors, rehabilitation centers, hospitals, schools, martial
arts studios, education institutions and community centers for: competitive
athletes, students w/ ADHD, people with de
pression,
those with memory concerns, neurological rehabilitation, cardiac rehabilitation
and many others....
Young adults and kids enjoy makoto for its virtual reality qualities; it's lights, sounds and computerized live action competitive play. Seniors enjoy makoto for its variety of low impact workouts to keep the mind and body in shape. Athletes enjoy the makoto for its relentless, high speed presentation of targets, improving reaction time, quick pattern recognition, mental clarity concentration and spontaneity of action. Human performance and cross-training are only a few of the benefits of makoto.
Freeze-Framerฎ: This instrument helps the participant reach a state of calm or relaxation and was "designed to prevent, manage and reverse the negative effects of stress, and to enable users to learn how to operate their mind-body-heart as a unified system, achieving new levels of health and well-being." By learning how to reach a state of calm, a person can relax under stress by finding that place of calm "as needed."
Neurofeedback
(from BrainMaster and
Neurocybernetics):
Effectively, these instruments allow one to train the brain through exercises
monitoring of EEG brain waves. Again, the goal is to achieve a state of
focus and attention -- mind clearing so that during a act of stress, the brain
reacts naturally instead of being
thrown
into chaos -- ergo, peak performance. The goal of
neurofeedback is to achieve an appropriate state at the appropriate time, and to
recognize that state and know how to get there on demand.
Interactive Metronomeฎ: This instrument focuses on fine motor skills training in association with mental acuity with focus on attention and concentration, coordination, balance, motor planning and sequencing, language processing, control of impulsivity, and sensory integration. Often used with children and teens with ADD/ADHD; language deficits (poor listening comprehension, poor verbal expression, poor reading comprehension); poor organizational skills, and poor memory. Other therapeutic applications to neurological and motor deficiencies with victims of stroke, brain injury, amputation, Parkinson's, etc.
Interactive Metronomeฎ is a revolution in developmental training and rehabilitation. IM is a brain-based assessment and training program developed to directly improve the processing abilities that affect attention, motor planning and sequencing. This, in turn, strengthens motor skills, including mobility and gross motor function and many fundamental cognitive capacities such as planning, organizing and language -- leading to peak performance.
The IM program provides a structured,
goal-oriented training process that challenges the patient to precisely match a
computer generated beat. Participants are instructed to synchronize various hand
and foot exercises to a reference tone heard through head-phones. Gains in motor
planning, rhyth
micity,
timing and sequencing lead to improvements in attention and concentration,
language processing, behavior, fine/gross motor skills, balance and gait,
strength and endurance, coordination and motor skills.
Individuals with motor planning and sequencing problems, speech and language delays, motor and sensory disorders, learning deficits and various cognitive and physical difficulties may benefit from the IM program. IM is for everyone, but can also benefit those with special needs, such as:
Autism Spectrum Disorder
ADD/ADHD
Sensory Integration Disorder
Asberger Syndrome
Traumatic Brain Injury
Cerebral Vascular Accident
Developmental Disorders
Journey to Wild Divine: Teaches techniques, like the heart breath, an ancient yogic breathing technique that will help you achieve control over your mind & body to help reduce stress and improve physical and mental wellness.
Alpha Stimฎ.
This device uses
a
unique waveform in its microcurrent and cranial electrotherapy
stimulation (brain training), which is applicable to treatment of anxiety,
depression, insomnia and other stress-related disorders. It is also used
for pain management. Treatment of the brain for these symptoms leads to peak
performance.
