Biofeedback and Neurofeedback
Biofeedback and Neurofeedback
Biofeedback and Neurofeedback has been shown to be an effective treatment for many of the difficult-to-treat problems of adults as well as children, including many emotional and behavioral disorders such as ADD and ADHD. Biofeedback is a computer based, brain-training technique that can help you develop more control over brainwave activity resulting in improved life functioning.
Biofeedback treatment teaches the client to produce more normal EEG patterns and is been recognized by the medical community as an effective drug-free treatment for many seemingly intractable disorders. Biofeedback has been researched in university labs for over 25 years and many people have had success in reducing or eliminating the symptoms for such disorders as:
- ADD / ADHD
- Depression
- Anxiety / Panic Attacks
- Sleep Disorders
- Digestive Disorders
- Hypertension
- Chronic Pain
- Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder
The Treatment Process
Through neurofeedback, your brain “learns” to self-regulate the strength and frequency of the electrical activity that controls all aspects of attention, thought, mood, arousal, and behavior. The treatment occurs via computer software which measures brainwaves through sensors that are harmlessly attached to your scalp. When brainwave activity changes in the desired direction, a positive “feedback”, or reward, is given to your brain.
Your brain automatically “learns” to modify the brainwaves being monitored into a more efficient form with a corresponding reduction in symptoms. This is operant conditioning for the brain. Over time, positive changes in brain functioning become permanent. Treatment is designed individually and takes between 20 and 60 sessions for optimum results. Sessions are usually held two or three times per week so that the effects carry over from session to session. Each session lasts about 45 minutes. The changes are usually permanent although brief booster sessions may be needed in the future.
Transformative Neurofeedback and Biofeedback Therapy for Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder in Canada!
In the journey of life, many individuals encounter potentially traumatic events that can shake their emotional foundations. While most individuals are resilient and recover with time and support, some find themselves grappling with the aftermath of trauma. The effects of trauma can manifest as Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD), a complex condition that can significantly impact daily life. At Top Mind, we offer a beacon of hope through our transformative Neurofeedback and Biofeedback Therapy, providing effective treatment for PTSD in Canada
Understanding Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder is not just a collection of symptoms; it’s a disruption of the mind’s equilibrium. This disorder emerges as a result of exposure to traumatic events involving death, serious injury, or sexual violence. Its symptoms encompass a wide range, from reliving traumatic events to emotional numbness and agitation. Without intervention, PTSD can evolve into a chronic condition, heightening the risk of comorbid mental health issues like depression, anxiety, and substance abuse.
