The brain consists of billions of neurons that communicate through electrical activity, measurable via an electroencephalogram (EEG). Neurons form networks that control essential functions like breathing, emotions, memory, and thought. Disruptions in neural communication due to factors like disease, injury, or poor sleep can lead to conditions such as ADHD, depression, and anxiety.
Neurofeedback, a type of biofeedback, uses EEG to improve brain self-regulation. It trains the brain to balance communication, potentially alleviating symptoms like anxiety, poor focus, and sleep issues. The process starts with a QEEG to identify areas needing regulation, followed by training sessions where brain activity is monitored and adjusted using stimuli like video games. Over time, the brain learns to function more effectively, reducing symptoms. The number of sessions varies per individual.
Clients have reported improved focus, reduced anxiety, and better memory. Results vary, but positive changes are common.
It's always the right time to feel more balanced.
