NEUROFEEDBACK

WHAT IS NEUROFEEDBACK?

Neurofeedback is a type of brain training therapy that uses real-time feedback from a qEEG (quantitative electroencephalogram) to help individuals learn how to regulate their own brainwave activity. The goal of neurofeedback is to improve brain function by teaching individuals how to control their brainwaves, which can lead to improvements in a range of mental health concerns.

Neurofeedback is beneficial for the treatment of mental health concerns because it is a non-invasive, drug-free approach that can be used to address a wide range of issues. It has been shown to be effective in treating conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, insomnia, and addiction.

One of the benefits of neurofeedback is that it is tailored to the individual. Each person’s brainwave patterns are unique, and neurofeedback therapy can be customized to address their specific needs. This personalized approach can lead to more effective results than traditional therapies that take a one-size-fits-all approach.

Another benefit of neurofeedback is that it can provide long-term benefits. Rather than simply masking symptoms, neurofeedback therapy can help individuals learn to regulate their own brain activity, which can lead to lasting improvements in mental and emotional health. Additionally, because neurofeedback is a non-invasive and drug-free therapy, there are fewer side effects compared to traditional medication-based treatments.

Overall, neurofeedback is a promising therapy for the treatment of mental health concerns. While further research is needed to fully understand its effectiveness, early studies have shown promising results, particularly for conditions such as ADHD and PTSD. As more research is conducted and technology continues to advance, neurofeedback therapy may become an increasingly popular and effective treatment option for a variety of mental health concerns.

How does it work?

A complete brain map qEEG (quantitative electroencephalogram) is a non-invasive neuroimaging tool that measures electrical activity in the brain to create a comprehensive map of brain function. The brain map is created by placing sensors on the scalp to record electrical activity in different areas of the brain. The qEEG measures brainwave activity, including delta, theta, alpha, beta, and gamma waves, which are associated with different mental states and brain functions. Neurofeedback works by measuring electrical activity in the brain using a qEEG device, which records and analyzes brainwaves in different regions of the brain. This information is then used to provide visual or auditory feedback to the individual in real-time. By observing their own brainwave patterns, individuals can learn how to change their brain activity in order to improve their mental and emotional well-being.

During a neurofeedback session, individuals are connected to a qEEG device and asked to engage in specific tasks or activities designed to elicit a desired brainwave pattern. The qEEG device measures the individual’s brainwave activity and provides real-time feedback, such as visual or auditory cues, to let them know when they are achieving the desired brainwave pattern. Over time, individuals can learn to regulate their own brainwave activity without the need for external feedback.

A complete brain map qEEG is an important tool in neurofeedback therapy because it provides a detailed picture of an individual’s brain function, allowing therapists to tailor the neurofeedback training to the individual’s specific needs. By identifying areas of the brain that may be overactive or underactive, neurofeedback therapy can help individuals learn to regulate their own brain activity and improve overall brain function.

Neurofeedback therapy has been used to treat a variety of mental health concerns, including anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, insomnia, and addiction. It has also been used to improve performance in sports, academics, and the arts. While neurofeedback therapy is generally considered safe, it is important to work with a qualified therapist who can monitor progress and adjust the training as needed.

Neurofeedback can complement both individual therapy and medication management in several ways. In individual therapy, neurofeedback can provide a non-invasive and personalized approach to improving mental and emotional well-being. By using neurofeedback, individuals can learn to regulate their own brain activity and reduce symptoms of mental health concerns, such as anxiety or depression, without relying solely on medication. Neurofeedback can also be used in conjunction with other forms of therapy, such as cognitive-behavioral therapy or psychotherapy, to provide a comprehensive treatment plan that addresses both the physiological and psychological aspects of mental health.

Moreover, neurofeedback can also provide important information to healthcare providers about the effectiveness of medication treatment. By monitoring brain activity in real-time, neurofeedback can help identify areas of the brain that are not responding to medication and may require a different approach. Neurofeedback can also help healthcare providers assess the effectiveness of medication treatment over time, and make adjustments to dosages or medications as needed.

GETTING THE HELP YOU NEED AT CORNER CANYON

We do not accept Medicare or Medicaid.

We are a private pay program, and are out of network with most insurance companies. We have success securing single case agreements with many companies, however, the rate of payment on those varies with the insurance company and we cannot guarantee what they might pay. We will run a Verification of Benefits (VOB) when we receive your insurance information so you have a general idea of what your insurance policy may reimburse, however, that is an estimate based on what all people insured by your company have received from your insurance, not a guarantee of what they will pay in your case.

On average, Corner Canyon’s clients receive a portion of insurance reimbursement 85-90% of the time, but the amount varies from minimal repayment to full reimbursement. We have a team of insurance advocates who are invested in helping families secure as much reimbursement as possible.

Fill out our Online Application here or call us at 877-226-0317 and you will receive a return call, text, or email quickly, depending on what you specify. We want you to have the best experience possible with us from start to finish, and responsive communication is part of that.
