Question 1

What is Neurofeedback?

Accepted Answer

Let's clear up some common misconceptions right away. Neurofeedback isn't some sci-fi brain zapping technique – there are no shocks, no electrical stimulation, and absolutely nothing invasive happening. In fact, it's completely safe and gentle. Think of it more like a sophisticated brain coaching session where your brain learns to optimize its own performance.

Neurofeedback is a smart, scientifically-backed approach that helps your brain learn to function more efficiently. By using your brain's own electrical activity as feedback, we guide it towards more balanced and effective patterns. It's like teaching your brain a new skill – helping you improve how you think, feel, and perform in everyday life.

Question 2

Does Neurofeedback involve medication?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely not! Neurofeedback is completely medication-free. We're all about helping your brain learn and optimize its own functioning without relying on pills or pharmaceuticals. Instead, we use advanced technology to give your brain real-time feedback, allowing it to naturally train itself to work more efficiently. It's a drug-free, non-invasive approach that taps into your brain's incredible ability to learn and adapt.

Question 3

How often do I need Neurofeedback?

Accepted Answer

The number of neurofeedback sessions varies depending on your specific goals and individual brain patterns. Typically, our comprehensive brain training program involves around 40-50 sessions, with most people experiencing meaningful results between 15-25 sessions. Think of it like a targeted brain fitness journey - consistency and patience are key. Some individuals might need fewer sessions, while others with more complex challenges might benefit from the full training program. During your initial consultation, we'll create a personalized plan that's precisely tailored to your unique brain performance goals.

Question 4

What happens during a training session?

Accepted Answer

During a neurofeedback session, you'll sit comfortably in a relaxing chair while we place sensors on your scalp that read your brain's electrical activity. It's completely painless and non-invasive. You'll typically watch a video or play a game on a screen, and the special software provides real-time feedback to your brain through visual or audio cues. When your brain produces the desired brain wave patterns, the video might play smoothly or you'll hear positive sounds. If your brain starts to drift from the optimal pattern, the feedback changes subtly, guiding your brain to self-correct. Most people find the sessions relaxing - some even describe it as a meditative experience. You don't have to do anything special; your brain does the learning automatically while you simply sit back and enjoy the process.

Question 5

Are there side effects of Neurofeedback

Accepted Answer

Neurofeedback is a non-invasive technique with no known long-term negative effects. During a qEEG brain mapping or training session, nothing is actually introduced into your brain. Instead, the process works by providing real-time audio and video feedback that essentially encourages your brain to "exercise" and optimize its own functioning.

Just as you might feel different after a workout at the gym – maybe energized, tired, or slightly sore – some people experience mild, temporary responses after a neurofeedback session. A small number of individuals might feel more mentally wired or unusually tired, and a few might develop a mild headache. However, these sensations are typically short-lived, resolving within a few hours and causing no lasting impact.

Question 6

Do you accept insurance?

Accepted Answer

While we don't directly bill insurance, we're committed to making neurofeedback accessible and affordable. We provide comprehensive documentation to help you potentially seek reimbursement from your insurance provider.
Our payment options include:
 • Cash
 • Personal checks
 • All major credit cards
To help manage your investment in your mental wellness, we offer discounted monthly treatment plans that can significantly reduce your overall costs.

Consider the broader perspective: compare the cost of ongoing therapy, medication expenses, potential lost work productivity, and the emotional toll of unaddressed mental health challenges against the transformative potential of neurofeedback. When you weigh these factors, the investment in your brain's optimal functioning becomes not just reasonable, but essential.
