Brain Neurofeedback

Looking for Brain Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback is also called "EEG Biofeedback" and "Neurotherapy." Neurofeedback is a technique of brain exercise. It involves helping a person learn how to modify his or her brainwave activity so that this gradual learning process can train the brain to function with better control and stability. A stable brain state can improve attention, reduce impulsivity, control hyperactive behaviors, improve sleep pattern and lead to better emotional wellness.

Neurofeedback is a painless, non-invasive treatment approach that allows the individual to gain information about his or her brainwave activity and use that information to produce changes in brainwave activity. 

We are a dedicated and caring group of Neurotherapist specilaizing in Neurofeedback Training  treatment

During the consultation phase we conduct general assessments and Cognitive testing to obtain a clinical baseline that we can use ti monitor progress. 

We may opt to to coduct QuantitativeElectroencephalogram (QEEG) and , continuous performance test, to help identify problems of attention, hyperactivity and impulsivity. We may also conduct psychological interview with a brief medical history. to screen out major problems or contraindications of neurofeedback traning.

The assessment may include Neurological checklist to form clinical diagnosis.

We have conduct Electroencephalograph (EEG) assessment from the child's scalp  to observe the brainwaves

Lastly we provide a brief to parents and recommend treatment plans parents.

 We execute the treatments based on parents /guardians instructions and request. Once the Neurofeedback session was completed, we review the session and provide support to parents/guardians.

We help kids, teens, students and adults to overcome their conditions and  reduces their dependency for medicine..We teach care givers and parents  practical ways to living with the mentally challenging family members. 

EEG Biofeedback or Neurofeedback sessions are quick,noninvasive,affordable and can even be entertaining . We believe EEG Biofeedback or Neurofeedback has great healing potential.

How Is Neurofeedback Done?  

Brainwave activity is measured with an electro-encephalograph (EEG).

The EEG Biofeedback equipment is connected to the individual with sensors that are attached on the scalp and ears. The sensors are safe, do not prick the skin and painless. They do not involve the application of any voltage or current to the brain. It’s entirely non-invasive.  

Neurofeedback practitioners will help the client learn to change his or her brainwave activity.The client does not need to know a lot about EEG or biofeedback to be effectively trained. Clients are taught to play Neurofeedback computerised games using their brainwave activity.

Changes in client brainwave activity are fed back to the individual through visual and/or auditory information by the computer.

The specific brain wave frequencies we reward and the sensors locations on the scalp are unique to each individual.

By this method, clients learn to change brainwave activity. Clients also practice maintaining learned brainwave states when engaged in school- or work-related tasks (eg reading, writing). This will help them use what they learned in Neurofeedback in their daily activities. 

What results can be expected from Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback is training in self-regulation. And good self-regulation is necessary for optimal brain function.

Self-regulation training enhances the function of the central nervous system and thereby improves mental performance, emotional control and physiological stability.

Trainees have also reported improvements in school or work performance, social relationships and self-esteem as well as reduction in irritability and oppositional behavior.

While you should not experience negative side-effects, you may experience additional benefits. Some individuals report increased relaxation, reduced stress, and a heightened sense of control over their bodies, thoughts, and feelings during or immediately after treatment sessions.

How Successful Is Brain Neurofeedback?     

Some clinicians and researchers have reported remarkable success in the treatment of ADD/ADHD with Neurofeedback. Others still consider Neurotherapy to be an experimental procedure.

Several research studies reporting successful treatment outcomes with ADD/ADHD have been published over the last 20 years. In addition, there are increasing numbers of clinical reports being added to computerised data bases that attest to the effectiveness of Neurofeedback as a treatment for ADD/ADHD. The client should know in advance that, as with all treatments, positive results (ie reductions in ADD/ADHD symptoms) cannot be guaranteed.

Some major reasons why practitioners are committed to providing Neurofeedback are:

 to attempt to help individuals for whom other approaches have failed

to help individuals who do not want to use medications for years

to add to the scientific evidence related to Neurofeedback's use.  

What is Neurofeedback Good for?                                

Almost anyone can enjoy the benefits of Neurofeedback training.It is a comprehensive training system that promotes growth and change at the cellular level of the brain.Neurofeedback is technology’s answer to poor cerebral functioning, cognitive rehabilitation and psychotherapy. It has been successfully applied to address depression, anxiety, post-traumatic stress disorder, personality It is used for early childhood disorders such as:

• Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD)
• Attention Deficit DIsorder (ADD) 
• Developmental disorders
• Asperger’s disorder
• Learning disabilities
• Autism
• Anxiety
• Depression
• Stress
• Bed Wetting
• Nightmares
• Computer or subtance Addiction
• Phobias
• Neurofeedback Peak Performance Training

Neurofeedback also help in peak-performance training for business executives, athletes, performers and many others.As people get older, it helps maintain good brain function. The best news is that almost any brain can be trained to function better regardless of its level of function.

Some notable people who have benefited from Neurofeedback are Fortune 500 CEOs, Superbowl players, PGA golfers, NASA astronauts and Olympians.

What are the potential side-effects of Brain  Neurofeedback?

Unlike the use of medications, Neurofeedback rarely produces negative side-effects. In fact, lack of side-effects is a major reason for the use of Neurofeedback.

Some potential side effects are discussed below.

To reduce electrical impedance and to ensure cleanliness and safety, the client's skin is cleaned on the areas where the EEG sensors are applied. Some individuals with sensitive skin may experience small breaks in the skin when the cleaning occurs.

A very, very small minority of individuals have reported brief periods of negative feelings (eg anxiety, or frustration) or negative physical sensations (eg fatigue, dizziness, tingling sensations) while undergoing treatment. These negative side-effects are very rare and usually last for only a short period of time.

 Some families experience a disruption in family roles and relationships after the family member who has received Neurofeedback training gets better. The anxiety levels of family members may increase, because they have been used to focusing on one problem and now must focus on a new one.

 How long will Neurofeedback training last?

During Neurofeedback session , you or your family member will be learning to change and control brainwave patterns. This learning process takes time.

The length of treatment varies between individuals. Many individuals report initial progress after ten sessions, but effective treatment usually requires between 20 and 40 sessions. Clients will be asked to participate in enough sessions to ensure that treatment produces the desired changes in behaviour or to make clear that the intervention does not seem to be working for a particular client.

How frequent will Brain Neurofeedback sessions be?

Neurofeedback training occur at least  two to three times per week. As learning and progress take place, sessions are usually reduced to once per week and finally to one or two sessions per month. 

What happens if Brain Neurofeedback clients are taking medications?   

The correct dosage of stimulant medications (eg Ritalin, Adderall, Dexedrine, or Cylert) can, when effective, produce a rapid reduction in the frequency of impulsive and hyperactive behaviors. As such, many patients will start a trial of medications or be on medications when they start receiving Neurofeedback.Over the course of treatment, individuals using medications may be able to reduce or terminate the use of these medications while maintaining control over disruptive behaviours.

However, any changes in medications must be discussed with the prescribing physician. The physician and family together will decide whether a reduction in medications is appropriate.

Do and Don’ts Neurofeedback appointments

• Do Book an appointment with Neurofeedback Therapist to save time.
• Do be punctual for Neurofeedback training.
• Do take meal before starting Neurofeedback session. Patient may be upset if hungry.

Don’ts Neurofeedback appointments

• Don’ts be late Neurofeedback appointments
• Don’ts use or minimize use of mobile phone during Neurofeedback session
• Don’ts talk or engage patient too much during Neurofeedback session

Does Neurofeedback cure symptoms or conditions?

In the case of organic brain disorders, it can only be a matter of having the brain to function better rather than curing the condition.When it comes to problems of disregulation, it is that there is not a disease to be cured. When the problem is with disregulation, self-regulation may very well be the remedy.

Think of Neurofeedback as a personal training session for the brain, where the brain becomes it's own trainer. Training the brain to function at it's maximum potential is similar to the way the body is trained, toned and maintained. Instead of muscle, brain training exercises the neural pathways that allow the brain to have better function in areas such as concentration and focus.
