What is
Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback is a technique that harnesses your brain’s natural ability to change and adapt, a concept known as “neuroplasticity.” Using sensors, we can monitor your brain’s electrical activity in real-time, rewarding it when it improves. This data helps us create a personalised training program to improve various aspects of brain function, from emotional health to cognitive performance.

stories

I had two strokes before I came here and my memory, concentration, and my focus and attention span were bad. I couldn’t remember much at all. After a few sessions I started to notice a difference in the way I was at home. After neurofeedback I’m doing much better, I am driving and I wouldn’t drive before. I wouldn’t communicate much and now I get out and go to a couple different groups and go into crowds. I am a teacher and now I can go back to work.

Jane

This is just a big thank you! What a remarkable treatment you offer, I have to say that the difference it has made to me is enormous. I genuinely feel much more at ease in myself and all the tension is going in my head and body. Not to mention the increase in my focus both short term and long term. I actually feel like I could make long term plans and stick to them !

I feel like I am more balanced, able to pull back from situations and look at them, look at facts more than focus on what I’m feeling. Little things happen that I react differently to. I don’t notice in the moment but very shortly after, I realise I responded in a different way without thinking about it

This is life-changing for me. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Thank you. This was a completely different experience to anything I have ever experienced before. I believe there is still a bit of work Neurofeedback wise to do in executive functioning areas and I definitely still experience some things emotionally that I think need work, but I am blown away by the difference.

I have just finished the meat of the first essay of three essays this year, having had two sets of sessions with Brainworks. The experience has been utterly extraordinary. I have loved writing it, I have loved the subject, I have loved reading, analysing what I ve written and writing down my own thoughts. I have understood, digested and focussed. I have completed this in the space of a week and half and loved every minute of it. I still have a lot of editing to do, but I do have the meat and the bones. Not only this, but recently I had a weekends training and I not only enjoyed the lectures, but I was significantly involved in the discussions afterwards and even asked multiple questions. What an incredible difference from before.

Frequently asked
questions

How long is a session

An hour

What is Neuroplasticity?

Our brains are constantly being shaped by experience. Most of us have very different behaviours and thoughts today than we did 20 years ago. This shift is neuroplasticity in action; changes in brain structure and organisation as we experience, learn, and adapt.

An old dog can learn new tricks.

You can read more about Neuroplasticity on our blog.

What is LoRETA neurofeedback?

LoRETA stands for Low Resolution Electromagnetic Tomography.

You can read more about LoRETA here.

What is a QEEG Brainmap?

A QEEG brain map (or ‘Q’ for short) enables us to see how your brain is processing information and where there is over or under activity. We also look at how well the brain communicates with other areas of the brain.

You can find out more here

Do you use Brainwave Entrainment?

We rarely use brainwave music therapeutically; it is rather an imprecise tool compared to other brain training methods.

You can find out more about Brainwave Entrainment here.

What are brainwaves?

Brainwaves are electrical impulses in the brain, and scientists measure them using an EEG (electroencephalogram). There are different types of brainwaves, each associated with different mental states.
You can read more about brainwaves on our blog.

Can Neurofeedback training itself make you Tired?

Some people find that neurofeedback sessions can make them temporarily tired, as is the case with any form of exercise. Others find it energising. It all depends on your baselines and goals.

What is the best neurofeedback for trauma and/or PTSD

There are many different kinds of neurofeedback training, however at Brainworks Neurotherapy we use LoRETA neurofeedback with its detailed imaging and deep brain training.

This means we can be both specific on targeting dysregulated areas and working entire networks, such at the default mode or anxiety network.

Our Neurofeedback
Process

Here is an outline of what the neurofeedback training process looks like. Keep in mind that your training programme is tailored to your unique goals and objectives.

Consultation Your starting point

1.

Consultation: Your Starting Point

During the free consultation we address your questions and determine if neurofeedback is the right choice for you. We’ll ask you to complete a set of forms and then discuss your objectives, history, and any symptoms to see if it is the best way forward for you.

2.

The Assessment: We obtain a QEEG brain map by putting on a 19 channel sensor cap; This looks and feels like a swimming cap. We take readings for 5 minutes eyes open and 5 minutes eyes closed. We convert these readings of your brain activity into brain maps Analysis of these maps enables us to correlate your unique patterns to the areas in life that you are looking to change. We review the maps alongside your goals with you.

The Assessment

3.

Training Plan: Creating Your Brain’s Workout We design your unique brain training protocols using data from your QEEG brain map, your forms and your goals. Every 6th session we re-map and adjust your protocol taking into account how your brain is changing.

Training Plan Creating Your Brain’s Workout

4.

Neurofeedback Sessions: Relax in the comfort of your own home as our neurofeedback therapist guides your session.

They will walk you through using the equipment and cap placement. Our bespoke software allows us to check the connectivity of every sensor. Once that is ready your brain’s activity will control a video, game, or music, providing real-time feedback. You get to choose what you watch from Youtube, Netflix etc.

Total session time is up to an hour with the training 20 to 45 minutes, with periodic QEEG updates to refine your program.
