MIND-FIT at Oasis Chiropractic Center

Self-Mastery Technology provides you with information that you want to apply when you are awake. This is called anchoring your vision to your timeline. It works something like writing yourself a sticky note and posting it somewhere to remind you later.

Most people who want to make changes in their lives have the best intentions in the world, but the reality is, we get what we rehearse in life, not necessarily what we intend. Through Self-Mastery Technology you rehearse the new behaviors, attitudes, and beliefs you want and create in your mind a timeline for success.

Any patient at Oasis Chiropractic Center who is not sensitive to flashing light can benefit from MindFit technology. The MindFit, used in combination with Self-Mastery Technology, creates a potent tool for creating laser-like focus and enhanced performance.

The light intensity on the MindFit is adjustable, so those who have minor light sensitivity can almost always find a setting that’s right for them. Even those diagnosed with light sensitivity seizures can experience the profound benefits from the Self-Mastery Technology processes alone (no lights). Our staff at Oasis Chiropractic Center will make sure the light setting is comfortable during your session.

You will be asked to lie down in a quiet and low lit room at our office and provided with a blanket. Our staff will hand you the MindFit glasses (that resemble sunglasses) over your closed eyes and headphones over your ears, you are then immersed in a perfect mixture of light and sound frequencies. Your eyes will be treated to a beautiful light show while you listen to specially designed music and the Self-Mastery Technology process. This all combines to enhance your experience and invite a higher degree of alpha/theta brainwave activity. Depending on the session Dr. Starkman recommends you will enjoy MindFit for 20-30 minutes. You will then meet with Dr. Starkman to discuss your experience with MindFit. You will then have your spinal adjustment if you haven’t already done so.

Some people may experience colorful geometric patterns while others may lose track of the lights completely. The light and sound pulse rate shifts from wide-awake beta to a dreamy drowsy state of theta as the session progresses. Using the science of frequency following response (FFR), your brainwave activity will follow the pulse rate of the NSA system. At the same time, your conscious mind rehearses the changes or improvements you desire for your life. Most people notice the biggest difference after the sessions end. Many report feeling “calm and focused,” or say that they feel “alert, yet relaxed.” It is not unusual that many patients fall asleep during a MindFit session.

The Self-Mastery Technology system is designed to program behaviors so they become natural, unconscious, and automatic. You know how to drink water. You know which foods are more natural for your body. You know what exercise is. You already have these abilities. Our focus is not to give you these abilities but rather to give you a response to those abilities, creating responsibility. This is the purpose of Self-Mastery Technology; it gives you the skills for responding to your own abilities. Self-Mastery Technology provides the motivation, the determination, and the drive to succeed. It’s a common experience that what the mind thinks about the mind brings about. The MindFit helps you to get into that powerful state where you can impress upon your mind the results you want in life.

Over 90 percent of those trying the MindFit at Oasis Chiropractic Center for the first time report feeling refreshed and energized right after the first process. While individual results will vary, smokers who want to quit often do so after listening to just one of the Smoking Cessation processes. Of course, your patients should be encouraged to listen to the full series to make sure their results are permanent. Those using the Weight-Loss series often notice habit changes, such as a reduction in cravings or a desire for water, right after listening to the first session. Golfers regularly report feeling more relaxed and confident the first time out on the course after listening to a Mental Coaching for Golf session.

The best brainwave entrainment is both auditory and visual. Environmental sounds and music have been used for centuries in almost all cultures to create altered states of consciousness. For example, native tribes used drums, chants, and environmental sounds like wind and rain to provide strong mental pictures and associations. There is a reason we find it relaxing to sit by the ocean and listen to waves crashing to shore or the sound of a stream as it trickles over rocks. These pleasant sounds tend to naturally generate alpha brainwave activity.

In today’s frenetic culture, though, we rarely get to enjoy nature’s relaxing effects. For this reason, the PorterVision team has individually encoded each session so that on a daily basis you can get a perfectly synchronized experience similar to that which nature provides.
The music you hear on every audio-session was composed specifically to complement the alpha/theta brainwave entrainment. The music is designed to create a full 360-degree experience that floods your mind with beautiful images and peaceful thoughts.

This dual-voice technique is intentional. It’s not a mistake! The purpose of the dual voice is three-fold. First, you’ll notice that the ancillary voice moves from right to left. This is to activate both the right and left hemispheres of the brain. Second, you’ll find that the primary voice is more assertive, while the secondary voice is more passive. This, too, is to activate different areas of the brain. Third, the two voices work together to create a whole-brain state by inspiring the conscious mind to let go. When the conscious mind isn’t trying to control every word, it helps the brain to balance while freeing the individual to relax and enjoy the positive ideas and images being presented. It’s advisable to inform patients about the dual-voice so they don’t think there’s an issue with the recording. You’ll find that when you tell them they don’t have to consciously listen to either voice, they’ll thoroughly enjoy the deeper relaxation this dual-voice method provides.

Generally speaking, any patient can achieve alpha/theta brainwave states and can benefit from Self-Mastery Technology. However, the sessions are recommended for persons with an I.Q. of 70 or above. Persons with severe mental disorders should not use the MindFit. Flashing lights have been known to trigger seizures in certain cases. While this disorder is rare, people who have a seizure disorder of any kind should not use the lights. These people can still benefit from Self-Mastery Technology without the lights. If you are unsure, ask your doctor before proceeding. Dr. Starkman encourages a majority of our patients at Oasis Chiropractic Center to try and include this service in their Wellness regimen.

During your MindFit sessions, you visualize new responses to old behavioral triggers. Then, when you encounter the old triggers, you’ll simply “forget to remember by remembering to forget.” As your new responses take hold, you’ll be convinced that you can be tobacco-free, or lose weight, or change any negative behavior. It’s that easy!

Everyone’s experience is unique. No two people experience the same feelings or sensations while using the MindFit system. You might experience lightness, heaviness, or a tingling sensation. You might even feel your eyelids flutter. Sometimes, as you release tension, your body might jerk or twitch. All of these are indicators that you are experiencing the alpha/theta state the MindFit is designed to create. The most common responses include relaxation, a clear head, and a feeling of being more centered.

Our culture teaches us to strive for control in our lives. However, what we think is control can quickly shift into stress, fear and anxiety. You are actually in more control while you are in the alpha/theta states because you gain discretionary access to your other-than-conscious mind, allowing you to tune into your thoughts, feelings, and emotions on a deeper level. With the help of MindFit and the SMT programs you choose, you will gain focus while creating positive habits and behaviors, which means you finally gain the kind of control you really want.

Yes, it is safe for you to drive after a MindFit session. You will likely feel refreshed because you have been on a mental vacation. When you come out of the relaxation state, you will feel positive and recharged, as if your entire being has changed. If you feel a little groggy at first, simply have a refreshing drink of water and take a couple of deep breaths. We always encourage our patients to sit down in our waiting area for a little while since most people feel the same as awakening from a nap.

Absolutely. The only known side effects are improved memory, better sleep, clearer focus, enhanced concentration, faster healing and reduced stress.
Strobe lights have been known to cause problems in people who suffer from serious medical conditions like epilepsy, seizure disorders, brain injury, or photo-sensitivity. Make sure to express any of these medical conditions to the Oasis Chiropractic Center staff before your MindFit session. If you have any concerns, you should ask your medical professional if MindFit is right for you.
