WHY IS IT NAMED THE INSTITUTO HOLLINWORTH?

Leta Stetter Hollingworth (1886-1939).
Her 1916 doctoral thesis “Functional Periodicity” showed that women maintained their intellectual capacity throughout the month, without menstruation affecting it. She then fought the prevailing idea of female disability during those days of the month by making it easier for companies and universities to hire women.

TSCIENTIFICALLY RECOGNIZED ADVANCED THERAPIES
EMDR

It was developed by Francine Shapiro in the United States, in 1989, initially as a therapy for post-traumatic stress disorder. It has since proven its effectiveness in multiple ailments.
It is a profound therapy, in which the roots of the patient’s current symptoms are sought and worked on to resolve them.
BIOFEEDBACK AND NEUROFEEDBACK
It has been used for more than 30 years, although the high cost of the equipment did not allow it to reach the general population. Now, with a lower cost of equipment and a great deal of research behind it, it can be offered in health centers to address a variety of aspects, including stress management, emotional self-regulation, and more.

It is very effective in dealing with a variety of difficulties such as stress, ADHD, epilepsy, insomnia, fibromyalgia, etc.
It is also very useful for improving cognitive performance if you have a deterioration or if you want to boost and improve performance to achieve excellence.
Damage to the brain (traumatic, vascular, infectious, viral, toxic, neurodegenerative …) can produce changes in cognitive, behavioral, emotional, and physical processes. Our goal is to improve the quality of life of the person suffering from this type of damage, optimizing their abilities, and enhancing their autonomy.
