Gray Matters, LLC, a section of Westport family therapy clinic Living in Harmony, LLC, is offering neurofeedback training with specialized technology to children who are diagnosed with Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) or Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), to help them focus better and reduce anxiety by playing PlayStation 2 for 30 minutes.

“The system is driven by your thoughts,” said Gary Pearson, a marriage and family therapist at Living in Harmony, LLC.

How it works is each child wears a SMART Visor Sensor System cap by SMART BrainGames and under the cap, behind each ear, a sensor is placed. A sensor is also placed on top of the head under a band. Before the sensors are placed on the child, they are submerged in SmartWater that contains one tablespoon of baking soda.

When ready to use, the sensors are plugged into a SMART Box neurofeedback device, which showcases the child’s brainwaves on a neurotherapists’ computer. This action is called an electroencephalogram (EEG), which is a test that records the electrical activity of a person’s brain. By looking at the child’s brainwaves, the therapists can see if the person is focused or not.

The SMART Box device is licensed NASA technology.
