Training of your brain
to improve
an athlete’s performance
Come and test and train your brain to identify your limits and enhance your sporting abilities.
Whatever your sport or level, up your game, develop your lucidity and enhance your stamina.
We provide :
a comprehensive ASSESSMENT of your neurovisual capacities
a custom-tailored neurostimulation TRAINING PROGRAM focused on your identified areas of weakness and that meets your personal goals
Our training program will enable you to improve :
Improvement of sport performances
step by step :
1. Comprehensive assessment
2 hours
The initial assessment is an evaluation of individual abilities and includes a neurovisual screening, the identification of areas of weakness and the production of a neurostimulation baseline thanks to the determination of individual values. This assessment provides a profiling of skills and leads on to the development of a patient-specific neurostimulation training program.
2. Brain training protocol
1 hour / session
During the 1 hour sessions, Neurovision S&P uses cutting edge technology to train the brain thanks to visual stimulations (neurostimulation).
This technique enables our athletes to optimize their perceptual skills and to improve their brain and cognitive capacities. It leads to heightened anticipation and powers of reasoning and it also speeds up the processing of information by the brain. This generates faster decision-making, better stamina and enhances a person’s lucidity when experiencing both stress and fatigue.
Athlete testimonials
One of the first sensations I had after a session with Romain (Bordas) was the perception of slow motion! Everything started going by in slow motion

- Indycar pilot with Andretti Autosport
- Former Formula 1 driver (Haas F1 and Lotus teams)
My sessions enabled me to attain a heightened level of knowledge about myself, my sensations and my perceptions and quickly led to a marked improvement in my performance

Brain activation on site
Neurovision S&P can accompany you on site to be by your side during sporting events that you attend, whether it be at a match, a race, a fight, etc.
The advantage is to provide an activation of your brain capacities in addition to your physical warmup already set up. Brain activation on site is designed to maximize:
- your visual-perceptual and cognitive potential
- your decision-making ability
- your lucidity
- your anticipation
- your brain strategy
- your response time
Athlete testimonials
Brain activation awakens my senses and concentration before the fight.
I perceive things on the ring that I had never perceived before.

- Professional boxer
- Silver league in English boxing and Glory kickboxing
Clubs / Sports teams
We propose to come to your club’s or sports team’s training facilities on a yearly basis to identify the major perceptual and cognitive issues of all your athletes.
Our VISION mobilizes 80% to 90% of the processing of information by our brains.
VISION is the foundation of all our decision-making and motor actions.
Visual acuity testing is not enough to analyze the quality of the visual input. Many of your athletes have “got used” to seeing badly or making considerable effort to compensate for their imperfect or unbalanced vision.
Thanks to our neurovisual check-up on your site, we assess the main individual areas of weakness of your athletes and we go on to design in collaboration with your medical staff specifically adapted cares to foster the quest for optimal team performance.
Some of the data collected can also help your team doctors evaluate a suspected or actual brain concussion after an impact involving an athlete during play or training, and to thereby improve post-concussion protocol.
Partner testimonials
We are lucky to work with Romain Bordas. The neurovisual aspect is crucial for sport performance.

We have also advised elite athletes and sport teams, as well as national sports teams for many years.
Athlete - Q & A
How long is the initial assessment? How long does a training session last?
The neurovisual comprehensive assessment lasts 2 hours. Every neurostimulation training session lasts 1 hour.
Where do we do the assessment? Where do we do the training sessions?
The assessment and the training sessions are done at the Neurovision Sport & Performance clinic in Lyon.
How many sessions are needed to feel that my brain is improving?
Athletes we have worked with tell us that they begin to feel an improvement in their symptoms between the 1st and the 5th session.
How many training sessions are recommended?
We recommend that athletes follow a training program with 10 to 15 sessions to achieve a significant improvement of their performance with regular profiling of their abilities.
How often should the sessions be?
We recommend 1 or 2 sessions a week for athletes who don’t live too far away from our clinic in Lyon.
I live far from your center, so what can you offer me?
We offer “intensive” training protocols over 3, 4 or 5 days including 3 sessions a day. We can provide accommodation facilities with partner hotels nearby.
Do we quickly lose the benefits of your brain training?
Like in every training, we recommend that athletes do a few sessions every 3 months to maintain their level, in particular for response time. However, the brain will retain the benefit of strategies for years without any specific training, particularly visual exploratory strategy and the ability to receive information.
After a training protocol focused on cognitive stamina (20 sessions or more), we recommend a few sessions every 2 months to maintain the benefits.
What are your rates?
We communicate our rates by email.
Will your training program interfere with my other training sessions that are already underway (physical, tactical, mental preparation, etc.)?
Our neurovisual assessment and training sessions are complementary to all the other training programs you follow to improve your individual performance.
Brain activation on site - Q & A
To what extent are you present and available during brain activation conducted on site?
We are totally available for our athletes throughout the day or over several days (for pre-activation, activation, practice periods, qualifications and matches or races) and also during intensive sports events (e.g. 24-hour races).
What is the ideal time to conduct brain activation before the event? How long does it last?
The optimal activation can (sometimes) combine a pre-activation phase a few hours before the event and an activation phase within the 30 minutes prior to the event, ideally 20 minutes before.
The activation phase lasts between 10 and 12 minutes.
What are your rates?
We communicate our rates by email and they are calculated by taking into account travelling and accommodation expenses.
Clubs / Sports teams - Q & A
How long does a screening assessment of an athlete last when conducted at our sports facility?
The screening assessment on site lasts between 30 to 40 minutes for each athlete.
What do you need to do the screening tests at our sports facility?
We need a room with a minimum length of 5 meters, along with 2 tables and 2 chairs.
How many athletes can you screen per day?
We can assess between 8 and 10 athletes a day.
How often do you do the screening tests for clubs?
Clubs and sports team often request screening tests for all their athletes once a year.
The screening assessment of new players is crucial to provide information and help in case of perceptual areas of weakness. It is also possible, and indeed useful, to follow the evolution of all the players who were already tested the previous season, to check the efficiency of their recommended training protocols and to review and adjust their assessments where necessary for performance or pre-concussion purposes.
