Neurofeedback is simply biofeedback applied to the brain directly. It addresses problems of brain disregulation. These happen to be numerous. They include the anxiety-depression spectrum, attention deficits, behavior disorders, various sleep disorders, headaches and migraines, and emotional disturbances. It is also useful for organic brain conditions such as seizures, autism spectrum disorder, Asperger’s, and TBI.
Neurofeedback training improves attention, cognitive abilities, and emotional regulation. Neurofeedback is training in self-regulation. Good self-regulation is necessary for optimal brain function. Self-regulation training enhances the function of the central nervous system and thereby improves mental performance, emotional control, and physiological stability.
