Though auditory and visual stimulation is new to many people, the study and use
of this technology for personal improvement accelerated learning, relaxation
and stress reduction, mental performance and specialized use for learning
disabilities has evolved over more than two decades of dedicated, ongoing
research.
MindSpa's proprietary programs are the result of
research published in November 2004 * by clinical psychologist
Ruth Olmstead, Ph.D. Dr. Olmstead's work with learning disabled,
attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity /
hyperactive disorder (ADHD) children is helping them and their families lead
normal, productive lives. Her latest research results suggest that this
technology could greatly enhance the quality of life for learning-disabled
individuals. If it is this powerful you can begin to imagine what it does for
regular functioning individuals as well!

Rest and Relaxation in minutes made simple
MindSpa's programs range in length from 10 to 40 minutes. The programs are
typically used two to three times per week. Just put on the proprietary led
glasses and headphones and allow MindSpa to envelop you with deep, pulsating
rhythms. This sensory combination of pure white light and sound removes outside
distraction gently bathing you in a pleasant world of peace and tranquility.
MindSpa is our best product ever!
With more than fifteen years in the field of stress reduction and learning we
can say with all confidence MindSpa delivers the best performance of any
product we have ever developed. Just read what some of our customers have to
say.
We have a seven year old son who has been diagnosed with ADD
(attention deficit disorder). He has been using MindSpa for six weeks. I see a
great deal of improvement in behavior. He is more confident, more self-assured
and he displays the ability to focus better. His teachers, family and friends
are all impressed with the change.
We began to notice results after one month. His ability to
concentrate and his ability to organize his thinking went up like a miracle!
Now our entire family uses MindSpa, including our six year old daughter. It has
increased calmness in our lives. Thank you!

Since seeing you in June 2004 and starting the Mind
Spa programs, my son, Jake, now 8, has really improved in all of his academics
in school. While in first grade he just didn't understand his work, and his
reading and math skills were terrible. He left the first grade with the
recommendation of getting tutoring over the summer holiday. He was also tested
for learning disabilities by the school, and formally diagnosed ADHD.
I was so glad to have seen you, as it gave me the
opportunity to try something different, aside from medications. On the
standardized test before starting on the MindSpa Program, my son was below
normal in some areas, such as short term memory, math, reading. After 10 months
of being on the MindSpa programs and being retested, the improvement is
remarkable.
My son is now completing the second grade and doing
very well in reading and math. I am very much impressed with you, Dr. Olmstead,
and the awesome change in my son.

How to use Mind Spa to feel relaxed and
refreshed.
Using it is easy! MindSpa is very calming experience.
Simply plug the Visual Stimulation Glasses and
the headphones into the appropriate jacks. Then choose one of the twelve
proprietary programs.
Sit or recline in a comfortable position with eyes
closed. Take several slow, deep breathes to help induce a calm and relaxed
state and to help release muscle tension.
Press the Start button to begin. The program
starts after a ten second pre-session countdown, allowing time to comfortably
position your body.
When the program begins, simply adjust volume and
lights to a comfortable level while enjoying the relaxing dual sensory input.
At the completion of the program, you will emerge feeling invigorated and
refreshed.
It is effective and easy to use!
For many years I have been looking for a solution
for stress, fatigue and to help improve my concentration, memory and
creativity. I have taken various meditation and creativity workshops. I also
took medication to control my stress, but nothing helped. Then I decided to try
MindSpa three months ago. Now my stress and anxiety is completely gone! My
focus is much better and I discovered a great, new creativity. For those who
are not familiar with it, I warmly recommend using MindSpa !
