Concussion Relief in Calgary, Alberta 

Calgary Mind and Wellness Clinic provides non-medication support for individuals recovering from head injuries and concussions by focusing on how the brain functions after impact. Even when physical symptoms subside, difficulties with focus, balance, memory, mood, and processing often signal that the nervous system is still dysregulated. Using advanced assessments and non-invasive tools, the clinic helps the brain reconnect, stabilize, and rebuild healthier patterns for long-term recovery.

Instead of masking symptoms, their approach identifies how the brain is processing information post-injury and creates a personalized plan to improve regulation and performance.

Help For Depression

Calgary Mind and Wellness Clinic offers a brain-based, non-medication approach for individuals experiencing low mood, fatigue, and emotional disconnection. Depression is more than sadness—it often reflects a slowdown in brain-body communication that disrupts clarity, energy, and emotional presence. Using non-invasive neurotechnology and personalized assessments, the clinic helps the nervous system shift out of shutdown and reconnect with balance, vitality, and resilience.

Instead of simply managing emotional symptoms, the clinic identifies underlying neurological patterns and supports healthier regulation from the inside out. Their approach helps address common challenges such as ongoing fatigue, loss of motivation, brain fog, emotional numbness, disrupted sleep rhythms, and feelings of isolation. By focusing on nervous system function, this method promotes long-term stability and improved well-being—without medication or guesswork.

Insomnia Treatment

Calgary Mind and Wellness Clinic offers a brain-based, non-medication approach for individuals struggling with insomnia, restless sleep, or difficulty winding down. Instead of viewing sleep issues as purely behavioral, the clinic focuses on how the nervous system and brain regulate rest and recovery. Using personalized assessments and non-invasive therapies, they help the system shift out of overdrive and back into a calm, restorative rhythm—so sleep becomes easier, deeper, and more consistent.

Their approach targets the internal neurological patterns that disrupt sleep, rather than relying on sedatives or temporary fixes.

The goal is to restore natural regulation so clients wake feeling rested, clear, and balanced.

Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder

Trauma doesn’t just live in memories—it lives in the nervous system. It can leave the brain stuck in cycles of hypervigilance, shutdown, or emotional overwhelm, long after the event has passed.

At Calgary Mind and Wellness Clinic, we look at how trauma has shaped your brain and body. Through assessments of brainwave activity, sensory processing, and autonomic function, we identify what patterns are keeping you in survival mode.

Using gentle, integrative therapies, we work to calm overactivation, rebuild resilience, and help the body feel safe again. This bottom-up approach supports the brain in releasing old survival responses so you can move through life with more ease, presence, and stability.

    Frequently Asked Questions

    Discover answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about our services and approach at Calgary Mind & Wellness Clinic. We aim to provide clarity and support for your mental health journey.

    Are the changes permanent?

    Short answer? Yes.

    Long answer: Once your brain learns how and when to produce a certain brain wave, that ability becomes embedded as a new, permanent circuit. This process is known as neuroplasticity.

    How many treatment sessions will I need?

    The typical patient usually requires 30 Brain Training sessions to ensure permanent neuroplastic changes.

    Can Brain Training heal the damage from a stroke / brain injury / Lyme disease?

    To varying degrees. Brain training takes best advantage of the brain’s ability to use adjacent neuronal pathways to take over the function of the damaged/dysregulated area.

    Also, the VieLight is a powerful tool to increase the function of each neuron at the mitochondrial level, allowing each brain cell to have more energy for healing and repair.

    Can Brain Training slow the progression of Alzheimer’s and/or Parkinson’s Disease?

    For more information on this topic, please visit our Alzheimer’s page.

    What other issues can Brain Training help with?

    Brain Training has been shown to help with a wide range of challenges, including:

    Addiction

    Asperger’s

    Insomnia

    Anger management

    Panic attacks

    Stress disorders / PTSD

    Memory loss

    Chronic pain

    Bipolar Disorder

    OCD

    Autism spectrum

    Anxiety

    Depression

    ADD / ADHD

    Learning challenges

    Dyslexia

    Dyscalculia (Math / Numbers difficulty)

    Additionally, it can be used to achieve peak performance in all areas of life. Athletes, students, musicians, doctors, and business owners alike use Brain Training to improve their mental clarity and physical capacities. In fact, it’s even used by NASA and for U.S. Olympic training.

    If you’ve got an issue and suspect Brain Training could help, go ahead and schedule an initial Brain Mapping session today—or give us a call. We’re happy to answer any questions you have.

    How do I know if brain training will help my child?

    This is why we do an initial Brain Mapping session before we create a treatment plan. The Brain Map shows the location and extent of any dysregulation in your child’s brain wave patterns.

    From there, we can gauge how effective Brain Training is likely to be.

    Dr. Dookie has been doing this a long time, and your child’s optimal health is his #1 priority. If Sensorium Neuro Wellness can help, he’ll explain everything. If not, he’ll explain that too.

    Schedule your Initial Brain Mapping session today.

    What what does it mean to be "natural" and "non-invasive"?

    A natural treatment works in concert with the body’s innate ability to heal and be well. In other words, it helps the body (or in this case, the brain) do what it’s already programmed to do, only better.

    Importantly, nothing is put into the body at any time — no electricity, no shocks, no subliminal messages. 😉 Instead, brainwaves (which are already active) are simply being observed and reflected back to your brain in real time through auditory and visual feedback — sometimes while you just sit and watch a movie. For more info: click here

    Isn't brain training just neurofeedback?

    Yes and no.

    Neurofeedback is often the most powerful component of our treatment plan. However, we’ve developed a more well-rounded approach at Calgary Mind and  Wellness Cliniuc, so we have a wide range of leading-edge “tools” that help restore balance to the brain’s functionality.

    In addition, our treatments include auxiliary therapies such as AVE, Em-Wave, and Vie-Light, which increase the neurofeedback’s effectiveness.

    What is the focus of your neurotherapy approach?

    Our neurotherapy focuses on understanding and improving the communication between the brain and nervous system. We use non-invasive methods to address issues such as anxiety, ADHD, and depression by retraining the brain for better regulation and calmness.

    How does your clinic support individuals with ADHD?

    We offer natural neurotherapy for ADHD, focusing on how the brain processes information. Our approach uses advanced tools to assess and guide the nervous system towards healthier patterns, improving focus and emotional regulation without medication.

    Can your services help with autism spectrum-related challenges?

    Yes, our clinic supports individuals on the autism spectrum by focusing on nervous system regulation. We aim to reduce the strain of sensory overload and emotional dysregulation, promoting calm and adaptability while honoring individuality.

    What is your approach to concussion recovery?

    We provide non-medication support for concussion recovery by focusing on how the brain functions post-injury. Our personalized plans aim to improve regulation and performance, addressing challenges like dizziness and brain fog for long-term recovery.

    How do you address insomnia and sleep issues?

    Our clinic offers a brain-based approach to insomnia, focusing on how the nervous system regulates rest. We use personalized assessments to help shift the system into a calm rhythm, promoting deeper and more consistent sleep without sedatives.

    What makes your clinic's approach to depression unique?
