BIOLINK MOSSEL BAY (South Africa)

We help people to improve concentration, memory, impulsive behaviour...the list goes on.

First you come for a computerised test (called FOCUS) to measure your attention control. Then you sign up for 40-80 neurofeedback sessions.

We also offer practical workshops developed by professionals.

We use advanced, NASA inspired, neuro- feedback technology!

BioLink provides concentration and behaviour control exercises through EEG technology for all, but with special focus on sport, ADHD and scholastic improvement.

HOW DOES IT WORK

Biolink makes use of electroencephalography (EEG) neurofeedback. It is an operant-conditioning training technique that helps individuals learn to concentrate more effectively and for longer periods when doing simple tasks like reading or boring tasks (as in school). Biolink makes use of Play Attention hardware and software and is the sole provider of Play Attention on the African continent.

HOW IS IMPROVEMENT MEASURED

In order to measure improvement, a FOCUS test is administered before and after a series of training sessions. FOCUS was co-developed by a team consisting of psychologists, teachers and software engineers of Afriforte (Economic Science Faculty Potchefstroom University) and Biolink itself.
