In this illuminating presentation, delve into the fascinating realm of alpha and beta waves, integral components of brain activity and function. Discover why these waves play a crucial role in our cognitive functions, emotional well-being, and overall mental health.
Neurofeedback therapy, also known as EEG biofeedback or neurotherapy, is a non-invasive treatment method that aims to improve brain function by providing real-time feedback on brainwave activity. During a neurofeedback session, electrodes are placed on the scalp to monitor electrical activity in the brain, particularly focusing on specific frequencies such as alpha, beta, theta, and delta waves. Through visual or auditory cues, individuals receive feedback about their brainwave patterns and learn to self-regulate and modify them towards desired states. This form of therapy is used to address various conditions such as ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, insomnia, and other neurological and psychological disorders. By training the brain to function more efficiently, neurofeedback therapy aims to promote better cognitive performance, emotional regulation, and overall mental well-being.
