Neurofeedback, also known as EEG biofeedback or neurotherapy, is a form of biofeedback.  In neurofeedback, a person is provided information about electrical activity in the cortical region of the brain so that he or she can learn to enhance or inhibit targeted patterns of brain activity. The process leverages the brain’s natural plasticity to restructure brain waves into the healthy patterns needed for cognitive functioning and emotional self-regulation. Supported by 30-plus years of research and further validated through the use of new brain imaging technology, neurofeedback is rapidly becoming known as a safe, effective intervention for an […] - [Additional Issues](https://darkorchid-crow-880678.hostingersite.com/additional-issues/): Substance Abuse Relapse Prevention: Backed by several years of research from across the country, including our own research, neurofeedback has been shown to be a useful way to prevent substance abuse relapse. While neurofeedback has been shown to prevent relapse, it does not detoxify. Individuals seeking neurofeedback training for substance abuse should be sober at the time of treatment. Seizure Disorder: As one of its earliest known uses, neurofeedback has been shown to reduce or eliminate seizure activity. At the Neurotherapy Center of Houston we recommend a Quantitative EEG (qEEG) be conducted when seizure activity is suspected. If needed, we can order […] - [Quantitative EEG (qEEG)](https://darkorchid-crow-880678.hostingersite.com/quantitative-eeg-qeeg/): The use of Quantitative EEG (qEEG) is a cutting edge area of the neurofeedback field. qEEGs help clinicians more strategically locate areas of the brain that are operating at less than optimal levels. At the Neurotherapy Center of Houston we collect and analyze qEEG data. Here’s how it works: We place a cap (like a swim cap) with multiple sensors on your head to record activity all over the brain. After recording (which involves sitting still and quiet for several minutes), we will edit and process your recorded EEG information. Then your data is compared to a qEEG database to […] - [Sleep Issues](https://darkorchid-crow-880678.hostingersite.com/sleep-issues/): Good, consistent sleep is the foundation for healthy living.

Neurofeedback does not replace other, more common, methods of treating head injury (such as physical therapy). It is, however, a fantastic adjunct to these methods, many times allowing individuals to progress much more quickly toward their physical and mental goals.
