Neurofeedback training

This is one of the promising areas of neurotechnology, based on the principle of biofeedback and allowing a person to control the activity of his own brain. Neurofeedback training sessions are aimed at activating the internal unused reserves of the brain to restore or improve its functioning. Neurotechnology combines an instrumental and psychological approach and can be used in cases where the use of medication is undesirable (e.g., allergic reactions, resistance to drug therapy).

Method description

At the diagnostic stage, a powerful electroencephalograph and sensors are used to record the electrical activity of the brain and read brain activity patterns (amplitude, power, coherence of brain rhythms, etc.). A complex of neurophysiological examination parameters help define the patient's status (tired, irritated, whether they are prone to fast recovery).

In fact, the specialist sees the functional disorders that the patient currently has and draws up an individual training or correction program.

How? This therapy is based on the well-known principle of biofeedback. The patient interacts with the neurofeedback complex in a game: electroencephalograms change as the patient undergoes the individual program. Regular repetitions help solidify the skill, and the patient will be able to achieve the desired state—for instance, focus better or relax.

State-of-the-art computer technologies made it possible to bring neurocontrol programs into the category of highly effective MindFitness trainings or neurofeedback trainings, with the help of which one can change the functional state of the brain; develop attention, speed of reaction, decision-making, and creativity; achieve deep relaxation; or focus on a specific task.
