ZenWaves is a specialist mental health practice offering a full range of psychiatric services.
The brain is probably the most complex and least understood organ in the human body. Ongoing neuroscientific research is increasing our knowledge and our ability to treat psychiatric conditions.
Even so, some conditions remain difficult to treat. Individual patients react differently to the same psychiatric medication. Some get good results. Others see no change in their condition. A significant number experience distressing side-effects.
At ZenWaves we measure and analyse brain activity before providing any interventions. This reduces the trial and error element of finding the best treatment for you. We use cutting edge technology like qEEG to understand your brain in detail. We use this information and the medical history you provide to develop a treatment plan.
We also keep up-to-date with current research shedding light on brain function. Trials of new medications are often funded by international pharmaceutical companies. Research into neuromodulation techniques such as neurofeedback is less well funded, but continues. We are also seeing more research into (and more awareness of) how factors like diet, lifestyle, supplements and the microbiome impact brain function.
Our approach at ZenWaves is holistic. We use multiple treatment modalities rather than relying on medication alone. We seek to identify and resolve root causes, not simply to treat or manage symptoms. And we always start by assessing your unique brain, so we can design a treatment plan for you based on your data instead of averages.
