What is Neurofeedback?

What Happens During Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback has been studied for decades. Read a peer-reviewed article about Neurofeedback below.

Neurofeedback in 4 Steps:

  1. Individual Intake Appointment

During a one-hour Zoom appointment, your clinician will take a detailed assessment and design an individual neurofeedback protocol for you.

2. Instructional Appointment

During a one-hour Zoom appointment, we show you how to use the neurofeedback software, how to hook yourself up to the amplifier and run an initial session.

3. Brain Training via Zoom

The first 2-3 weeks, you will train twice a week via Zoom with your practitioner. This high-touch approach helps ensure you are comfortable with the equipment and helps us make adjustments to your protocol if needed.

4. Brain Training Independently

After you have trained with your practitioner for several sessions, you are able to begin training on your own. Each month you will check in with your clinician to make adjustments and discuss your progress.

FAQ

  • We offer a high touch, clinically supervised remote neurofeedback program that is individualized to each person. We know your time is valuable and remote neurofeedback is effective and provides flexibility. Our clinic sends you everything you need to conduct neurofeedback at home. We include a laptop, an amplifier, wires and the gel and paste needed to conduct sessions.

    Your first appointment is a one-hour intake session with a neurofeedback specialist who conducts an assessment of your past and present symptoms as well as your goals with neurofeedback. Your second appointment is with your neurofeedback specialist, who walks you through how to hook yourself up and run a session. For the next four to six sessions, your neurofeedback specialist will be online with you while you do your trainings. They will be adjusting your protocol and coaching you each time. After you are comfortable running a session by yourself, you will meet with your neurofeedback specialist once a month to check in, unless you need adjustments made and more coaching.

  • Neurofeedback uses sensors on the scalp to monitor brainwave activity and provide real-time feedback through both visual and audio rewards). This helps the brain learn to regulate itself towards a more balanced state.

  • If neurofeedback is personalized and delivered following correct protocols, generally clients experience positive effects within the first 10 sessions of neurofeedback, which may take 2 - 4 weeks. Neurofeedback is shown to be effective in three in four people.

  • During a typical session, you'll be seated while playing a video game on a computer. You will also hear audible rewards, such as beeps. The sensors monitor your brain activity and through the visual and audio rewards, your brain will begin to change itself into an optimal state. Your practitioner will coach you through the session. You may feel tired after the first few sessions of training. Most clients feel calm and relaxed after their session.

  • When you do neurofeedback through our clinic, you are working closely with a clinician who is frequently updating your training protocol, based upon real-time information from your brain. This hands-on approach offers clients optimal results as changes can be made to their protocol quickly.

    When you work with our clinic, you are also given a membership to our online Trauma Recovery program, The Whole Health Lab. This includes EMDR, IFS, community connection meetings and an online learning platform with somatic tools and education on recovering from trauma and toxic stress.

  • The number of sessions varies depending upon the issue you would like to resolve. On average, people require around 40 sessions to optimize their brain and get resolution. Most people see some results within 10 sessions and some people resolve the issue that brought them into our clinic within 20 sessions. Every brain is unique, and each treatment plan is based upon the goals you have for yourself with neurofeedback.

  • Signs of neurofeedback effectiveness include improved attention, reduced impulsivity (in cases like ADHD), better mood regulation, and enhanced cognitive function. Objective measures such as brainwave changes and behavioral improvements during therapy sessions also indicate progress.

  • During your neurofeedback training you will come into the office between 2-3 times a week for 30 minutes a session. Once you have completed your treatment plan and your brain is stable and organized, you will not need to do neurofeedback regularly. Most people come in for a tune up (4-6 sessions) every two years or more.

  • Neurofeedback is a type of biofeedback and unwanted changes can be quickly reversed in the next session. Your clinician monitors your sleep, mood and other symptoms closely so that your brain is not trained in a way that causes side effects. Mild fatigue during the first few sessions is common.

  • Neurofeedback therapy is considered safe for individuals across all age groups, including children, teenagers, and adults, due to its non-invasive nature and lack of pharmacological intervention.

  • Yes, we recommend continuing any prescribed medications while undergoing neurofeedback training.
