Neurofeedback, or EEG biofeedback, is a highly advanced, scientific approach used to optimize your brain function. Entrust your brain health only to the best - not a technician, not somebody who is just starting, and not someone in training. Always get the doctor at Neurofeedback Associates of Jacksonville. If you want the best, you've come to the right place. At Neurofeedback Associates, we specialize in treating Attention Deficit Disorder, Learning issues, Depression, and Anxiety, among other issues. 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. We offer unique pricing to your personal need, so it is recommended to contact us for any questions.
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.
We teach the brain to inhibit the fast parietal waves, which cause overactivity, and to inhibit slow cortical waves, which cause daydreaming and spacing out. Simultaneously, we teach the brain to augment the brainwaves necessary for concentration.
The Training
The Feedback in neurofeedback is a computer game or DVD. You sit in front of a 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, 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.
The Scientific Basis
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. We teach the brain to inhibit the fast parietal waves, which cause overactivity, and to inhibit slow cortical waves, which cause daydreaming and spacing out. Simultaneously, we teach the brain to augment the brainwaves necessary for concentration.
