NERVOUS SYSTEM REGULATION
PERFORMANCE TRAINING
High performance coaches use nervous system regulation to create better body awareness, allow athletes to visualize training scenarios, and help them achieve and maintain flow states during competition. Mental health professionals use it to help manage challenges from anxiety to depression, to trauma. Health care providers have been integrating it as a way to manage pain, speed recovery, and regulate overstimulated nervous systems. At Flyspace, we integrate any and all of these approaches to help you reach your maximum potential.
HOW IT WORKS
Nervous system regulation is tailored to your specific needs and goals. For some, the focus is entirely based in mindfulness and mental health interventions, for others it is a blend of mindfulness and visualization techniques applied to exercise.

NEURo-somatic Protocol
The Neuro-somatic Protocol links together and then trains your cognitive, psychological, and physical performance in one comprehensive program. Over six to twelve weeks, in private or semi-private sessions, you will increase and hone attention and awareness, learn to modulate psychological and emotional responses, and then apply these skills to physical training.
What makes this program unique is the fact that from day one, each of the above performance domains are treated not as separate realms, but as one completely integrated system. The protocol is based on the most recent research in neuroscience, motor learning and control, visualization, mindfulness, mental health, and exercise science and kinesiology.
