PSYCHOGENYX Offers Cognitive Assessments to Objectively Measure Mental Fitness, Cognitive Functioning
As part of your mental health, fitness & conditioning program, it is standard practice to objectively check up on areas such as memory, attention, reasoning, and verbal ability—all cognitive abilities you need to function optimally in everyday life. It’s not a test—it’s a quick checkup on how you’re doing today, like a blood pressure cuff for your brain.
Why is Measuring Cognitive Health Important?
We all have a subjective idea of how our brains are doing—some days we feel “off” or have “brain fog,” while other days we feel like we can take on the world. But how much better are we on the good days? Are lifestyle or health changes making a difference? That’s where cognitive assessment comes in. By putting a number to these subjective feelings, we can discover what is causing the good days in order to have more of them. When your brain is performing, every activity in your daily life will be easier, from remembering where you parked your car to doing your taxes.
Creyos: An Engaging and Scientifically-Validated Cognitive Assessment Platform
PSYCHOGENYX uses a leading cognitive assessment platform, Creyos Health, to quickly measure brain health. We offer these measures to assess, monitor, and manage core areas of cognition to ensure that your mental health, fitness and conditioning program is on the right track.
The Creyos Health tasks have been validated by decades of scientific research, and are proven to measure the most important aspects of cognition. Performance is directly linked with the areas of your brain that are active when you’re at your sharpest. But more importantly, the tasks are fun, and only take 3-5 minutes each to complete. Now, not only will you feel better, but you can objectively track how your brain is responding to your unique mental fitness program.
Is This an IQ Test?
Creyos Health assessments are not an IQ test! Think of it more like a blood pressure cuff for your brain. There’s no judgment, and the goal is progress over time, because we acknowledge that brain health changes from day to day. That’s why we believe we can improve or maintain your performance through our mental conditioning and fitness program, and now include cognitive assessments as a standard part of the program.
Are Cognitive Assessments Relevant to Me?
Cognitive health affects almost every part of your life. If you are visiting PSYCHOGENYX to treat a specific ailment, it likely has a cognitive outcome—even conditions that have traditionally been seen as purely physical, such as pain, have cognitive effects. You’re not thinking well if you’re not feeling well. Discuss cognitive assessments with your healthcare practitioner to see how the brain benefits of mental conditioning and fitness can help improve your life.
What Do Results Look Like?
Your Creyos Health report is designed to be easy to read and understood easily. It becomes more valuable with each additional assessment, showing your progress and letting you know when significant changes occur. Your healthcare practitioner will review your report after each assessment in order to measure progress and make adjustments as necessary.
