Captain's Log® is the most widely used, comprehensive set of computerized cognitive training/testing program ever published. It has been in continuous use since 1985, and has a proven track record in a variety of therapeutic, school and home settings in all 50 states, US territories and 23 foreign countries. Coaches can use scores on these various units to key in on academic weaknesses and then utilize the training protocols to strengthen those skills. Older self motivated children can often move into independent study, thus reducing fees to equipment usage. 

Our cognitive testing pinpoints barriers for learning. We sort the testing data three different ways by module, by educational skill and by cognitive task.

IVA (Integrated Visual and Auditory Continuous Performance Test) is a comprehensive computerized test of attention, processing,  and self control used by health professionals in identifying and diagnosing attention related difficulties. In it's first use, it clarifies if there are related cognitive deficits associated with ADD/ADHD and provides data as to what treatment options will help. We can also use the IVA CPT test to monitor the effectiveness of medication as well as any treatment option. It is based solely on the performance of the individual rather than subjective forms of related information that are often just one persons opinion. Your interests as well as data from parents and instructors/supervisors will also help us in choosing and evaluating our treatment plan.

Our Brain Builder program can be used to test sequential processing and short term memory. click here for more info

Educational Foundations of our Neurofeedback System
FYI-Neurofeedback and EEG Biofeedback are terms that are interchangeable. Regular biofeedback monitors physical symptoms like respiration rates.
Edufeedback is the brand of neurofeedback that we use at Incredible Horizons. 

Edufeedback is founded in Cognitive Educational Psychology. To understand how Edufeedback works, it is important to understand how we learn and how distractibility and impulsivity affect the learning process. Edufeedback is the most comprehensive learning tool because it strengthens the core components of the learning process, teaches academic skills, and applies behavioral modification strategies. This patented skill building process is termed Edufeedback. More About Our System

Our system is the only learning system to combine real-time feedback with educational protocols that provide specific skill work necessary to be highly successful during the learning process. It is also the only system with an academic bridge that ensures generalization to learning and life skills. Due to the brain's ability to form new neural pathways during the learning process, impairments such as attention problems can be overcome: or at the very least, managed with correct training. Edufeedback facilitates this reshaping for success in the classroom and life.

Heavy Metal Toxicity Testing & Intravenous Chelation

Chelation therapy is a medical treatment that improves metabolic and circulatory function by removing toxic metals and minerals (i.e. lead, cadmium, mercury, copper, calcium and iron)  from vessels. Various disease processes and aging itself can cause, or result from an excess of theses materials within the circulatory system.

 These materials can be removed from the body by administering injections of an FDA approved synthetic (man made) amino acid EDTA.  Another benefit of chelation therapy is that, once in the bloodstream EDTA halts the damaging effects of free radicals-highly reactive molecules which cause and speed up the aging process.
