Neurofeedback
What is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback training is brainwave biofeedback. Sensors are place on the scalp visual feedback about your brainwave activity.
Normally we cannot influence our brainwaves because we lack an awareness of them. However, being able to see them on the computer screen gives you the ability to influence and retrain them via operant conditioning which means your brain responds to the rewards it receives for producing the brainwaves you are trying to increase or decrease. With continued training and practice we can retrain healthier brainwave patterns enhancing cognitive flexibility and control.
Many problems arise from our brains being over aroused such as anxiety, insomnia, emotional instability, hyperactivity and impulsiveness. Other problems can be caused when our brains are under aroused such as ADD/ADHD, depression, learning deficits and language processing deficits.
Neurofeedback offers an alternative to medication to help with the following conditions:
ADD/ADHD Impulsivity
Depression Emotional Instability
Language Deficits PMS
Insomnia Sport Peak Performance
