Welcome to neurofeedback associates
Neurofeedback,
or EEG biofeedback, is a highly advanced, scientific approach used to
optimize your brain function. Using the latest technology (patented by
NASA and used to train astronauts and fighter pilots) we can use your
brain's natural ability to adapt to train you to produce particular
brain wavelengths at particular sites in the brain. Producing the right
wavelength at the right site can enhance desired traits (e.g. allowing
you to achieve incredible focus and concentration, emotional balance,
improved mood) and minimize many symptoms (reducing migraines,
hyperactivity, anxiety).
With our
state of the art equipment, we teach the brain to add more of one
brainwave and get rid of others, depending on what we want or need.

Too much slow wave activity: fogginess,
daydreaming

Too much fast wave activity:
Overactive

We
teach the brain to inhibit the parietal fast waves, which cause
overactivity, and to inhibit cortical slow waves, which cause
daydreaming and spacing out. Simultaneously, we teach the brain to
augment brainwaves necessary for concentration.

The
Feedback in neurofeedback is a computer game or a DVD. You sit in front
of a computer screen playing a game or watching a movie with electrodes
attached to your scalp that measure your brain activity. Each time your
brain produces the desired brain activity (more/larger of one brainwave
or less/smaller of another), you get a reward. The DVD screen size may
increase or the character in the game performs better instantaneously
based on what your brain is doing. Your job is to watch a movie, or
play a game, while the brain learns to produce what we ask of it.

When
we measure different places in the brain with an EEG, we are actually
adding together a number of different brain wavelengths. The type of
brainwave, the amount you have, and where you have it correspond to
states of feeling and abilities.
