Can BrainCore Neurofeedback Therapy Help Your Student?

The first bell has already rung in area schools to begin the 2015/2016 school year. New classes bring new challenges and advanced learning techniques and it's important for your child to be prepared to handle what is expected of them, scholastically and otherwise.

Neurofeedback has more than thirty years of scientific research behind it and has been shown to be powerful, drug-free alternative to prescription medications. Most frequently, it is used to address a wide range of neurological conditions, including:
ADHD/ADD
Anxiety
Depression
Insomnia
Fibromyalgia
PTSD
Migraines
Chronic Pain

You may not know this, but a lot of the most common neurological conditions have been associated with irregular brainwave patterns. In other words, the brain activity of someone who has ADHD will look much different than the brain activity of someone who does not. Makes sense, right?

Using neurofeedback therapy, Dr. Hogan and her team can help patients to correct the irregular brainwave activity that may be a cause of their neurological conditions. This is accomplished by monitoring the patient’s brain patterns, and then using real-time feedback to teach the patient how to maintain normal levels of brainwave activity.

The Who? What? When? Where? How? of Zerona Laser Body Slimming



As a chiropractor in Destin, Florida, Dr. Shawna Hogan has been working with patients struggling with back pain and other ailments, some attributed to carrying excess weight. Mixed with a healthy lifestyle and exercise, ZERONA laser treatment is an excellent supplement to achieving a slimmer, healthier physique.


We often hear ZERONA sounds too good to be true so we have supplied some FAQ's for you below.

If you or someone you know is interested in learning more about ZERONA please contact our office at 850-424-7856.

How does it work?

Through clinical studies it has been demonstrated that the Zerona® low level laser stimulates the fat cell to emulsify (liquefy) the fat within the cell. Then the liquefied fat moves from inside the cell through a temporary pore formed in the cell membrane to outside the cell where it is in the interstitial space until absorbed by the lymphatic system. This results in millions of fat cells becoming smaller so inches are reduced off the waist, hips and thighs. The fat cells are not injured in any way by this process.

What can I expect at my appointments?

You can expect 40 minutes to relax, read or do absolutely nothing. The Zerona® treatment is completely painless. There is no heat or any sensation whatsoever while being treated. Each treatment you will be met by your physician or technician who will position the laser at the desired areas of the body, he/she will step out for 20 minutes while the front of your body is treated and then will return to reset for the backside of your body for an additional 20 minutes. After you are done you can get back to your normal activities immediately with absolutely no downtime, nor pain, swelling or any discomfort. This is a symptom –free process except for losing unwanted inches.

What happens if I miss an appointment?

It is not recommended that you miss an appointment. Prior to starting the Zerona® treatment, it is important that you are committed to the recommended lifestyle protocol which includes at least 6 treatments, every other day for 40 minutes and not to exceed 72 hours between treatments. If more than 72 hours intervenes, some of the fat may be uptaken by the fat cells again.

How is it different than liposuction?

Liposuction is an invasive procedure that removes the entire area of fat cells from deposits beneath the skin using a hollow stainless steel tube (called a cannula) with the assistance of a powerful vacuum. Liposuction can be accomplished either with the use of general anesthesia, or with IV sedation, or totally by local anesthesia. In contrast, the Zerona® treatment is a 100% non-invasive that uses a low level laser applied externally to stimulate the fat cell and emulsify and release fat. There is no use of anesthesia, nor any pain, gels, creams, numbing agents, needles and no downtime.

How is it different from other “non-invasive” body slimming techniques?

The Zerona® laser is the only completely safe and effective non-invasive treatment for body slimming on the market today. There is no possibility of injury. No technician will be pushing on you or using any device against your body. You simply lay beneath the Zerona® lights.

Is there any downtime?

Absolutely ZERO downtime. During the treatment you will feel no discomfort, no anesthesia will be used and you can assume normal activities immediately following each treatment.

Are there any limitations to what I can do if I’m using Zerona®?

No. During the 2 week treatment period you can continue your normal activities. It is strongly recommended that you commit to and follow the treatment protocol: stay hydrated (8-10 glasses of water a day), continue to eat healthy and exercise (walk at least 30 minutes a day) and abstain from alcohol and caffeine. Alcohol and caffeine interfere with the lymphatic process to remove fat and metabolize it which can decrease your results.

What areas of the body can I use Zerona® on?

The Zerona® treatment was proven effective in a double-blind clinical trial on the waist, hips and thighs where localized fat deposits exist that are resistant to diet and exercise.

Is it covered by insurance?

No, Zerona® treatments are considered elective and are not covered by insurance.

Is it safe?

Yes, there is no risk involved in using the Zerona® low-level laser therapy and it is considered a safe alternative to invasive procedures such as tumescent liposuction and lipodissolve and other non-invasive devices like the Accent, VelaShape, and Thermage ,which rely on heating the tissue and can cause discomfort. None of these have the proven data showing how fat cell size is reduced like the Zerona®. The Zerona® treatment is 100% non-invasive and causes no bruising, scaring and zero downtime. During the treatment you will feel no discomfort, no anesthesia will be used and you can assume normal activities immediately following each treatment.

Is it safe if I have a medical condition such as diabetes?

Yes, with two exceptions. If you are pregnant or think you may be pregnant, Zerona® should not be used. Additionally, if you have a pacemaker, this treatment may not be for you. There are no known detrimental risks but potential unknown risks may exist. Zerona® may not be as effective on patients with diabetes or thyroid disorders where the metabolic system is potentially impaired.

Are there any side affects?

A. No. The treatment process is completely non-invasive and there are absolutely no side effects beyond loss of inches and fat.

How long has the Zerona® laser been used?

The Zerona® has been used in studies since 2008 and has been used by physicians in practice since early 2009. The same Erchonia® Low Level Laser technology has been used to safely assist with tumescent liposuction since 2001 as it is proven to cause fat to be released from fat cells immediately prior to liposuction surgery. From this important experience, the Zerona® technique was developed for effective, totally non-invasive body slimming.

Is it effective?

Yes, with the Zerona® treatment and by following the recommended guidelines for success, we saw an average loss of 3.64 inches reported in our clinical trial on the waist, hips, and thighs.

How long do results last?

By maintaining a healthy diet and exercise you can expect long-term results. Zerona® is especially ideal for 2 types of people: those that are already following a healthy diet and lifestyle and want to remove localized pockets of fat or drop body fat % OR those who want to use the Zerona® and the recommended lifestyle protocol to “jump start” their slimming efforts as motivation for maintaining a healthier and slimmer lifestyle.

Can I do the procedure multiple times? And how soon after my last treatment can I do a second treatment?

Yes, with additional treatments you can expect to see improved results. You can start an additional series of Zerona® treatments immediately following your last treatment. Speak to your technician or physician about any discount programs that may apply.

How soon after pregnancy can I do it?

It is recommended that you wait until after your last postpartum visit with your doctor (usually 6 weeks after birth) to begin your Zerona® treatment. It is not recommended if you are breast feeding.

How long does it take to begin seeing results?

Some can see results after only a few treatment sessions as their clothes fit more loosely. Many actually see the difference after 4-6 sessions. Family and friends often notice the difference, too, within the 2 week Zerona® program.

Is everyone a good candidate for the Zerona® treatment?

Most are good candidates. Even people who are not overweight can lose inches. Be sure to discuss your health background with your physician and ask any questions about your particular areas of concern.

ZERONA in the News


We know what you're thinking, ZERONA sounds too good to be true, right? Wrong. As ZERONA patients are losing inches they are gaining the confidence to share their weight loss stories and we love hearing them.

Dr. Mehmet Oz did a special on ZERONA early in 2011.

Matt Lauer discussed the ins and outs of ZERONA with Dr. Nancy Snyderman, NBC's Cheif Medical Editor, on the TODAY show.

The ZERONA laser was dubbed the "ferocious fat-cell fighter" by SELF beauty director Elaine D'Farley in an August issue.

Dr. Hogan has been working with patients struggling with back pain and other ailments, some attributed to carrying excess weight. Mixed with a healthy lifestyle and exercise, ZERONA laser treatment is an excellent supplement to achieving a slimmer, healthier physique.

Best of all, treatment with the ZERONA laser is easy, painless, and carefree.

Each session takes less than an hour; the low-level laser is used for a total of 40 minutes. ZERONA lasers are applied to the targeted area, which is generally a combination of the waist, hips, and thighs, for 20 minutes. The patient then turns over for laser treatment on the opposite side.

Despite being a new, state-of-the-art technology, Dr. Shawna Hogan has been providing ZERONA Laser Treatment for two years with tremendous results.

Call our office today at (850) 424-7856 to find out if you are a candidate for ZERONA.

We recently had a two ZERONA appointments reschedule, opening up two 4 week afternoon slots beginning July 7th. Typically these appointments require booking weeks in advance due to the fact that everyone is wanting to be swimsuit ready for warm summer days.

ZERONA is a body-slimming procedure designed to remove fat and slim the body without invasive surgery. ZERONA unlike other procedures, allows the patient to continue their daily activities without interruptions from surgery, pain or wounds.

Each session takes less than an hour using the ZERONA lasers applied to the targeted area; generally a combination of the waist, hips, and thighs, for 20 minutes. The patient then turns over for laser treatment on the opposite side. Patients sit back, relax and let the laser do the work while enjoying music and a comfortable setting.

Our ZERONA patients have averaged losses of 3-9 inches, with the largest loss 16.75 inches, and over 1,000 inches total. Any wonder why it's so popular?

Summer is Here! Get Beach Body Ready with Zerona Laser Treatment

The first day of summer is a little over two weeks away which means one definite thing in our area: swimsuit season. ZERONA laser treatment allows patients to sit back, relax and let the laser do the work.
In just a matter of a few weeks ZERONA laser treatment will have you ready to hit the beach. The non-invasive, painless procedure, ZERONA is a proven way to lose on average 3-9 inches or more fat through your waist. Contrary to most other fat reducing surgical procedures this treatment does not require any injections or incisions. In fact, most ZERONA patients feel little to absolutely NOTHING!
Screen shot 2014-06-06 at 4.57.40 PM
The low-level ZERONA laser is used for less than an hour, a total of 40 minutes to be exact. The laser is applied to the patients' problem areas; which for most is a combination of the waist, hips and thighs. The laser focuses on both the patient's front and backside with the patient rotating after 20 minutes.
ZERONA works by utilizing the Erchonia LipoLASER™ to emulsify adipose tissue, which then releases into the interstitial space. The excess fat is passed through the body during its normal course of detoxification.

Introducing Our Newest Service- BrainCore Therapy


Today we introduced our newest service, BrainCore Therapy, a form of neurofeedback that can help children and adults that suffer from a range of conditions including ADD/ADHD, Post Traumatic Stress Disorder, Fibromyalgia, Aspergers, Autism, Insomnia and more. 

Our free seminar today was held at the studio of Abrakadoodle Art Education in the Destin Commons and concentrated specifically on ADD/ADHD. We had such an overwhelming amazing response and amount of interest from the Destin-Fort Walton Beach-30A communities, that we are going to be hosting another seminar that will concentrate on some of the other conditions listed above. Stay tuned for the announcement of when that next seminar will take place. 



Were you unable to attend today? Below is a brief description of BrainCore Therapy. To learn more, call us at 850.424.7856 to set up a time to meet personally with Dr. Hogan at our office in the Regatta Commons in Destin and discuss if you or your loved one is a candidate for BrainCore Therapy. 

So, what is Neurofeedback? How does BrainCore Therapy work? 

The theory of neurofeedback is based on a simple concept – When you have information on what your brainwaves are doing, your brain can use that information to change how it works BrainCore Neurofeedback is also known as EEG Biofeedback. Neurofeedback is guided exercise for the brain. It is actually a learning modality designed to retrain dysregulated brainwave patterns.
The goal of all neurofeedback is to transform an unhealthy, dysregulated brainwave pattern into a normal, healthy, organized pattern. By doing this, the brain becomes more stable and is able to operate optimally and efficiently. It is completely noninvasive and is considered by the Food and Drug Administration to be safe.
In fact the Food and Drug Administration recognizes that neurofeedback has NEVER produced a serious side effect since it was first discovered over 40 years ago. Published scientific research has demonstrated neurofeedback’s efficacy in managing many neurological conditions such as ADHD, Migraine and Tension Headache, Insomnia, Chronic Pain, Post Stroke Syndrome, Anxiety and Panic Attacks as well as many others.

Regatta Chiropractic and Laser Center raised $2,320 for the Junior League of the Emerald Coast


Our First Posture, Purses & Prosecco event was a HUGE success! 


Our first annual Posture, Purses and Prosecco event on March 27, 2014, successfully raised $2,320 for the Junior League of the Emerald Coast (JLEC)!

This spring preview took place at the Regatta Chiropractic and Laser Center office of Dr. Shawna Hogan located in the heart of Destin in Regatta Commons across from the Destin Area Chamber of Commerce. Over one hundred women in the community attended and enjoyed wine tastings by Deliver my Wine, hors d’oeuvres by Elephant Walk, and live music by Bo Adams. Local designer consignment boutique LuxExchange displayed an impressive array of designer handbags, wallets and jewelry that were available for purchase with a portion of proceeds benefiting Junior League.

“It was such a wonderful opportunity to sip, shop and socialize while raising money for such a wonderful cause,” stated Dr. Hogan. “My practice has a special interest in the care of expectant mothers and children, so working with the Junior League was a great way to convey that message to the local women in the area.“

The event also included complimentary chair massages with Orlando Branch, voted “Best Massage Therapist” by the readers of Destin Magazine. Ladies also enjoyed exploring a sizeable silent auction with packages valued over $1,000. Greeted with a customized wine glass of prosecco and presented with a goody bag upon departure, ladies were pleased with the outcome of the event.

“The Junior League of the Emerald Coast is dedicated to making a difference in the lives of children and women in our local communities through volunteering and special projects,” stated Molly Carter, JLEC’s Vice President of Communications. “We are so grateful to businesses like Regatta Chiropractic and Laser Center and LuxExchange for sharing this vision and supporting our endeavors.”

Given the success of the first annual Posture, Purses and Presecco, it is hoped that next year’s event will provide an opportunity to greatly surpass this year’s funds raised for the Junior League of the Emerald Coast. The next Posture, Purses and Prosecco event will take place spring of 2015.

Could our high tech world be affecting your posture?


Our daily activities including using laptops, tablets (like Ipads), smart phones and countless other technological advances may contribute to poor posture.
Poor posture can cause and contribute to serious health problems including headaches, neck pain, back and shoulder pain. Although we cannot escape modern technology, chiropractic care can help correct poor posture.

At Regatta Chiropractic and Laser Center we aim to effectively identify the problems that are at the root of poor posture by analyzing spinal curvatures, movement and alignment. Our goal is to pinpoint where and how the spine is not moving correctly and make adjustments to correct  spinal misalignment.

Along with visiting a chiropractor, here are some tips that can also help improve your posture:

-Exercise more often. Strengthening back muscles can contribute to a healthy posture.

-Be aware and pay attention to your posture. Be conscious of slouching and keeping your neck down during daily activities.

-Don’t Sleep on your stomach.
