What Is Neurofeedback Therapy?
Neurofeedback is a form of therapy that regulates brainwave patterns by reinforcing healthy brain function. We use positive stimuli such as pleasant feedback tones and screen fading to “reward” optimal brain activity and gradually eliminate dysregulation.
Neurofeedback is essentially a training in self-regulation. Through it, we reward the brain for changing its own activity to more appropriate patterns. This is a learning process that applies to any aspect of brain function that we can measure, with applicability over a wide range of situations.
Brain Mapping
Brain mapping, also known as QEEG, allows us to look at your brainwave activity at 19 distinct locations. Each brain has a unique “electrical fingerprint” that we call a Brain Map. We compare your brain map to a database of many other brains. From years of extensive research, we know the biomarkers or common traits of many disorders. For example, children with ADHD all have excessive slow-wave activity in the front of their brains.
Brain mapping will identify the irregular activity in your brain that is causing you to seek treatment. By seeing which areas have abnormal activity, we are able to develop a custom training protocol that is unique to your circumstances and goals.
We perform brain maps in the morning on location. The process takes about an hour to complete. A tech will place a cap with 19 sensors on your head. We will then measure the activity with both your eyes open and closed while the sensors capture the brain activity. The data will then be processed through our database to produce your Brain Map.
