Neurofeedback methods and devices are exploding in the marketplace. This way of using simple feedback to train the brain to change its electrical wave production has a long and rich history along with biofeedback. Some of the old and new methods available are explained and introduced.
Dr. Michael Pierce has 25 years of clinical experience in chiropractic neurology and metabolism and uses clinical and laboratory science-based reasoning wherever it is possible to provide safe and effective wellness and lifestyle changes for those suffering chronic pain or illness.
Dr. Michael Pierce is board certified in neurology by the American Chiropractic Neurology Board, which is the sole specialty board in neurology recognized by the American Chiropractic Association (ACA).

Hi Doc. I am 60 years old and I did do 10 sessions of Neurofeedback. This was June and July this year 2023. I had outbursts symptoms for years and when I finished and sent messages to friends and family for an apology. I made peace with myself and I feel now that I must move on and drop people that don't make me happy and stick to the ones I love and those that have their interest in my heart. I feel much calmer and I am getting better sleep. My breathing has now improved tremendously, as for years I had lots of em motional blockage that made me very depressed. Your video clip is done very nicely and hope lots of people get better using this system of Neurofeedback. Patients should remember that damage of emotions took place for years in your body and brain, please do not expect a quick fix. Everything will fall in place over time. Be patient, be relaxed and be humble and your health will improve.

Dr. Pierce, what brand of systems for neurofeedback do you consider to be the best?

@TheHumanCondition Жыл бұрын

There are so very many that I cannot pick just one, and there are so many varieties of technology choices. Among the most common are BrainMaster and so many others. Let your clinician guide you. If someone wants to DIY for performance, I like David Delight from mindalive.com/pages/about-us it is very safe. Some people should use a clinician and others may not need help.

Hi Dr. Pierce, thanks so much for all this info! Is Neurofeedback helpful for someone who's had long-term chronic illnesses like Myalgic Encephalomyelitis or Lyme? Would a QEEG be helpful for showing the effects of chronic illnesses?

@TheHumanCondition Жыл бұрын

Once chronic infections and autoimmune triggers are removed, then NF can be a great way to repair the brain loss of function. If the cleanup is not done, NF works less well and is less "sticky" in that the good effects don't last as long.

@TheHumanCondition Жыл бұрын

QEEG is super helpful as long as we get rid of the other infections and AI triggers and inflammation sources. QEEG can pick up metabolic problems and no amount of NF will fix that.

@brittneyrodgers4120 Жыл бұрын

@@TheHumanCondition That makes sense, thank you. Would it be helpful to do NF alongside AI trigger treatments? Especially since any form of viral/mold detox triggers so much inflammation for me.

@TheHumanCondition Жыл бұрын

Most clinicians would consider NF contraindicated with an active infection or toxicity like mold, and resume after detox.

Hi Dr.Pierce, thanks for your information. My "classroom" is talking much to much too 🙊🙈 because of different traumas. I started now with Neurofeedback and the "3-point-method" where I watch movies and the attention is trained. I'm not sure if it is the right method for me because it is so hard to concentrate on the movies as a lot of emotions and pressure and stress in the body comes up then. I heard of the ILF-Method (infra slow) and thought if that would help me better and easier with my strong PTSD. Could you help me and tell me what you think? Or what method would you recommend for my problems? Thanks very much and greetings from Germany 🙏

Had first qEEG and results came back as a high voltage EEG. I’ve been referred to neurologist. I have to admit I am a bit anxious now. Have you seen this and what was the issue?

@TheHumanCondition 3 ай бұрын

Many people have endophenotypes there are 11 described by Jay Gunkelman, and they can be variations of normal depending on the actual measurements. IF it is medically high voltage, there may be an electrochemical instability that may respond to diet, detox or medication, especially if it is all over the brain and not just a spot. Let us know what happens. Often there is a sympathetic stress response with scalp sweat from high blood pressure, super stress, anxiety, or panic attacks. Neurofeedback and neuromodulation can often help. Get evaluated and tell us the rest of your story.

If the brainwaves are made more abnormal away from the target is what I was getting at. It is possible to mess up a network by making a single area change brainwaves. We are still learning about network dynamics when we train brainwaves. We dont want to have a blind spot.

How much should neurofeedback generally cost per session/month and does medical insurance typically cover costs?

@369Connections 4 ай бұрын

Depends where you are in the world. A good start is to look for a bcia registered practitioner in your area to get started.

@TheHumanCondition 3 ай бұрын

neurofeedback is broadly covered across the US and Europe for many conditions, but it is not universal. There are many types of NF and equipment and software, some are more expensive to own. Each insurance plan has their own rules. The cost per session ranges from under $100 to around $200 depending on level of complexity, supervision, and if a package is sold of multiple sessions.

Great Plains lab/Mosaic lab has hair and urine tests for many toxins. Your doctor orders a collection kit to be sent to your home and then mailed in for analysis and a great report is generated. William Shaw is the owner, he is a PhD toxicologist who used to work for CDC before starting the lab. They are now international and I get no kickbacks either.

@nasrullahnasrullah849 3 жыл бұрын

Who and how decides what brain fluctuations to train?

@TheHumanCondition 3 жыл бұрын

Ultimately the provider and patient together analyze and discuss the patterns of brain waves they are seeing, and correlate symptoms with the data. Then they agree on what target waves and locations in the brain to pursue and train. This is a balancing process, not a medical treatment for disease, although good evidence is growing for neurofeedback in many conditions.
