Cellfield is a scientific reading intervention program that is specifically designed to create changes in the dyslexic brain. The program was founded on the findings that the brain can change and heal called neuroplasticity. Thus Cellfield is a unique reading program because its goal is to overcome dyslexia and reading struggles rather than simply manage them. The program creates new neural (or brain) connections that are essential for the ability to read and comprehend.
How it Works:
Studies have found that the average student improves 2 grade levels in just two weeks and more after twelve weeks! Before and after brain imaging has shown that before the program, struggling readers were reading from Broca’s area of the brain. After Cellfield neural re-training, brain imaging showed that they were reading from the same part of the brain as typical readers the parieto and occipito area of the brain.
Cellfield is beneficial for:
- Whose reading age appears to have reached a plateau and falls further and further behind their chronological age with each passing year.
- Who are screened as having symptoms of dyslexia.
- Who are assessed as having language disorders.
- Who have difficulty in repeating orally given instructions.
- Who have poor reading, spelling and writing skills.
- Who have adequate phonological skills but not the required reading fluency, accuracy and comprehension.
- Who read at an age appropriate rate but cannot recall what they read.
- Whose reading is normal but feel discomfort or suffer from fatigue.
- Who have poor working memory.
- Who feel uncomfortable looking at black letters on white paper.
- Who have eye movement control problems.
