Introducing the new MindSpa Pro Glasses
Designed with Dr. Olmstead for use in her clinic, these glasses are specifically for those with anxiety, focus, attention and light sensitivity issues. Our regular led glasses have the lights pointing toward the eye in an oblong fashion for maximum stimulation. However, for a few with particular issues, this stimulation may be too great even at low light levels. Our new Pro Glasses have the lights positioned on a round configuration at ninety degree angles to the eye providing effective but more subdued stimulation and excellent for open eye use.
Dr. Olmstead reports excellent results using this configuration in her practice. Designed specifically for use with her sessions, we are now making these professional glasses available to you for the first time.
May be used with eyes open or closed.

About the Original and the Enhanced 12 MindSpa Programs
Based on her research as therapist working with thousands of children and adults, in 2003 Dr. Olmstead developed the original eight programs for relaxation and four stimulation programs that became the basis of MindSpa. Many tens of thousands of people are successfully using these programs in our previous MindSpa versions.
Now five years later and with the latest technology, Dr. Olmstead has upgraded the original 12 programs for more effective results. The length and basic structure of the programs are similar, but many of the frequencies and light/sound patterns have been increased and expanded to provide better results. Please review the graphic charts below.
