EEG Biofeedback for ADD ADHD
Individuals can learn how to change and control their own brainwave activity if they are given immediate feedback in an understandable format. This is how EEG biofeedback training works.
Most providers have biofeedback systems that use video games to give the feedback to keep the patient interested while learning. With repeated practice, usually 30 to 40 EEG biofeedback sessions, patients can effectively change and control their brainwave activity at will, decreasing the "lack of control" slow brainwaves, and increasing the "in-control" middle range brainwaves. The results, in children as young as four years old, can be increased self-control at home and at school, increased attention span, increased learning, and decreased temper and impulsivity.
EEG biofeedback is also outstanding for peak performance training in athletes and business executives. Ask NASA, the US military, and the most of the world's Olympic teams. They know.
The very best resource on the internet regarding EEG Biofeedback training is the EEG Spectrum web site.
Everything that you want to know about EEG Biofeedback can be found there, from research to local providers. We cannot possibly build a site as good as theirs, so we will not try. Visit their site.
EEG Biofeedback training, also called Neurofeedback, is available in most cities in the United States. It is a good intervention, and can be effective, provided that your clinician knows what he or she is doing. Expertise and experience are very important, just as in counseling or medicine. Choose your providers wisely.
The only downside is the cost, with a course of treatment for ADD ADHD ranging from $1,800 to $4,000, depending on the provider's charges for his services.
One of the reasons that we like the ATTEND product is that it is as effective, but costs a lot less.
