Neurofeedback is brain exercise. Also called "EEG Biofeedback", Neurofeedback is based on the reading of the brains natural electrical activity with the use of an ElectroEnc... ephaloGram, or EEG. By rewarding desirable patterns and inhibiting undesirable ones, we promote and strengthen the brains ability to self-regulate and perform optimally. Neurofeedback differs from medication in that it treats the root of an issue rather than simply alleviating the symptoms, and does so without the side effects. It is a non-invasive treatment that works toward optimal brain functioning without the use of medication. We observe your brain in action, from moment to moment, by monitoring your brain's bio-electrical activity, known as "brain waves", in specific locations. Neurofeedback works by holding a mirror up' to the brain to give it feedback on how it's working. In this way the brain can be trained to work better and more efficiently. The idea that the physical brain itself can change as a result of positive and negative stimuli comes from the scientific understanding of Neuroplasticity. The method comes from the concept of "operant learning", which states that unconscious behavior and response can be learned through subtle rewards and inhibits. The feedback is delivered to the brain via the eyes and ears through games, guided meditations, and movies. When the brain is working well, the feedback systems cause the video or game to change positively, for example, to go faster, to display full picture and brightness, to play at full volume or with less noise. When the brain is not functioning as well the feedback changes toward mild inhibits; slower play, limited or darkened picture, lower volume or more noise. As the client learns and tunes in to this feedback, the brain adjusts in response. It is though reinforcement in the form of sensory feedback ...Read More
