Depends on the severity of the trauma(s), duration of each trauma and repetition over time, and whether trauma(s) are past, present, or both. On average, 12 sessions can alleviate a lifelong entrenched pattern.

No. LENS is not a covered benefit of any medical insurance plan. Please view our LENS Pricing for details.
1-4 session average per issue.
Combine LENS prior to any trauma therapy. Or use TFT when fully activated.
No. LENS is 4,000 times gentler than your cell phone. Your cell phone, which sends a signal 4,000 times stronger than LENS, is more likely to cause a seizure. If your cell hasn't caused a seizure, it's unlikely LENS could cause a seizure.
Each person experiences the effects of LENS uniquely. Some notice effects immediately. Others notice little until their goal is achieved. Application occurs in seconds.
It depends on your condition and your goals. Some individuals with traumatic brain injury can recover in 3-6 sessions.
LENS has a cumulative effect of lasting longer as the brain incorporates it. Clients segue from weekly to bimonthly to monthly then to every two or three months for refreshers.
Complex traumas as pervasive childhood abuse benefit from combined therapies. Targeting dose can take a few sessions depending on the accuracy of the initial three subjective questionnaires.
LENS stimulates brain reorganization and optimization, lifts stress, depression, exhaustion. It cannot prevent new stressors from impacting your brain. If impacted by a major stressor after a LENS, the stressor may overwhelm any benefit. If you have a major stressor before LENS, an aggressive LENS can mediate it. People in abusive relationships, high stress work environments, working in overload/burn-out may seek LENS more frequently or as needed.
LENS is a cutting-edge neurofeedback technology. Unlike brain training neurofeedback, it allows your brain to customize reorganization, promoting neuroplasticity. Additional ongoing LENS training is required of providers. The initial equipment investment is $15,000.00+, not including sensors, conductive paste, witch hazel, cotton pads, towelettes, other supplies, and training costs.
Since 2016, Dr. Au has been the only credentialed, licensed LENS provider on Oahu. LENS opens suppression, stimulates brain reorganization to improve cognitive functioning. LENS can lift depression, calm anxiety, and improve perceptual outlook virtually instantly.
LENS improves cognitive functioning and opens suppression, reducing therapy time. Flushing is a common experience of revisiting past feelings, behaviors, and conditions. Currently no other technology exists that achieves results as fast, or with as little effort.
Ages 6 months and older. Hormones drive brain function. If your hormones are adequate to drive brain reorganization, LENS works. Some individuals, age 65+ benefit from bio-identical hormone replacement to benefit from LENS.
Set-up and take-down take longer than the LENS application, which is a few seconds. Everyone's brain customizes reorganization, so doses and outcomes are unique to individuals.
Some common effects are clearer thinking, better focus, ability to sustain attention, ability to get more done in less time, easier to initiate and complete tasks. Most people notice nothing during application but behave more positively after LENS.
We do not LENS when ill. Some people with sub-clinical illness experience negative thoughts and feelings, a flushing. Effects may at times appear to worsen before improving as the reorganization process opens suppression.
Unresolved thoughts and feelings may surface; how much or how fast depends on the severity and amount of suppression, dose strength, and your brain's ability to efficiently reorganize. EMDR, Brainspotting, or TFT can quickly resolve any repressed trauma that surfaces, or future LENS will continue to flush and reorganize a brain impacted by trauma.
