There is a scientific reason as to why our bodies feel so good when we exercise. When we move our bodies, our brain releases a hormone called dopamine, or the “feel-good” hormone.

Our brains work just as our muscles do: growing with use and withering with inactivity. The brain has the capacity to regenerate and grow throughout our entire lifespan. With exercise and neurofeedback, you create the most compelling way to ensure your brain’s continued growth and rejuvenation.
