Over the past several years I have had anecdotal case studies from patients stating their tinnitus lessened over a series neurofeedback treatments. The primary goal was never directly treating the tinnitus but it was always an added bonus if mitigated. This research is a small sample size but shows one possible way to treat tinnitus.

"The study represents the first time fMRI-neurofeedback training has been applied to demonstrate that there is a significant relationship between control of the primary auditory cortex and attentional processes. This is important to therapeutic development, Sherwood said, as the neural mechanisms of tinnitus are unknown but likely related to attention."

Effectiveness of Neurofeedback Therapy with Cognitive-Behavioral (Play Therapy) in Improving Attention and Cognitive Function in Children with Learning Disorder in Primary School

A sample of 60 LD children who were identified in schools was selected by multistage cluster random sampling and randomly divided into three experimental groups and one control group.

NFB training was done according to Monastra et
al. (2005) and play therapy cognitive performance and attention therapy were based on Drewes (2009) in 20 sessions while no intervention was performed in the control group.

The results showed that NFB and play therapy were effective in increasing cognitive performance (p

Can Neurofeedback grow back brain matter in Moderate (unconscious) Traumatic Brain Injury Patients?

Case Study: Two Patients were treated with 20 sessions of QEEG guided neurofeedback therapy.

Patient 1: Twenty year old male with history of road traffic accident (RTA) presented with the loss of consciousness lasting approximately one hour and had left ear bleed.

Patient 2: Patient 2: Twelve year old female with history of RTA presented with loss of consciousness (LOC) for approximately one week with both ears bleed and traumatic amnesia. CT scan had taken within 24 hours show features of diffuse axonal injury (DAI).

Results: During QEEG guided neurofeedback therapy the cognitive scores and concussion symptoms improved significantly (p

Having trouble paying attention? Neuroscientists from MIT have confirmed that neurofeedback can modulate the brain to become more attentive.

"Overall, we found that neurofeedback training resulted in sustained modulation of spatial attention tested in the post-training phase. We found both neural and behavioral effects consistent with the training direction"

If you believe you are a candidate for neurofeedback please consult your primary care physician.

Can Neurofeedback Therapy help Autism?... YES!

The study below analyzed 37 patients with Autism (ASD). The patients performed 20 sessions of neurofeedback therapy over 10 weeks.

The results showed:

🍎 improved ratings of autism spectrum disorder symptoms (89% success rate).

🍎40% reduction in core ASD symptomatology

🍎 76% of the experimental group showed decreased hyper-connectivity

🍎All results confirmed by neuropsychological and neurophysiological assessments

Conclusions. Evidence from multiple measures has demonstrated that neurofeedback can be an effective treatment for ASD. In this population, a crucial factor in explaining improved clinical outcomes in the experimental group may be the use of assessment-guided neurofeedback to reduce cerebral hyperconnectivity. Implications of these findings are discussed.
