Custom brain maps
It all begins with custom brain maps.
Custom training
Once custom maps are generated it’s very clear where your brain needs training to speed up or slow down. Neurofeedback training is not just symptom based but based on what your brain needs.
Training happens in games during ongoing sessions. Game play is controlled by only your brain waves. Points are won in the game by changing your brain state.
FAQs
Does it hurt?
No, it does not hurt at all. Highly sensitive electrical listening equipment (sensors) record your brain waves and nothing painful is involved.
Can this shock me?
No. The sensors are fundamentally incapable of sending electricity into you. Even if we wanted it to shock you, it could not.
What does Qeeg stand for?
It stands for Quantitative Electroencephalogram. It monitors the electrical activity in the brain much like an EKG (Echo Cardiogram) monitors the activity in the heart. From the brain wave data that is recorded we get a very clear picture of how and where that particular brain is dysregulated.
What does Qeeg Neurofeedback training do?
It teaches the brain how to self-regulate. It’s possible to help a brain regulate with medications but there are usually side effects, costs, and few people want to be on medications long term. By teaching the brain how to self-regulate many clients are able to, with their medical doctor’s assistance, reduce or eliminate their medications.
How does Qeeg Neurofeedback training do that?
After the initial scan, custom training protocols are developed for your brain. The training happens as your brain waves are monitored while you watch a video game. The only controller for the video game is your own brain waves. Over some sessions, your brain learns to get better at the game and by doing so it learns to self-regulate.
What can QEEG Neurofeedback help with?
In simple terms brain dysregulation states are over aroused and under aroused. Commonly, over aroused looks like anxiety and under aroused looks like depression. Anxiety and depression are very different brain states but they can run together. The reason they sometimes run together is that a brain can be over aroused on some frequencies and under aroused on others. Each location in our brain can utilize each frequency so it quickly gets complicated. The custom maps clearly show what location and what frequency that specific brain is over and/or under aroused. Then the custom training can teach the brain to slow down where it’s over aroused and speed up where it’s under aroused.
