Frequently Asked Questions

I've never heard of Neurotherapy. Is it new?

Neurotherapy, sometimes referred to as neurofeedback, has been around since the late 1950’s and early ‘60’s, and by the 70’s and 80’s, neurofeedback was used to treat ADHD in children, adolescents and adults, drug abuse, problems with pain and a variety of other conditions.

Neuroscience has come to accept the interrelation between the central nervous system, the autoimmune system, emotional, physical, and mental health. It has conceded that indeed, the brain can change at any age, and that we create new neurons throughout life. The natural mechanisms underlying neurofeedback are now becoming clear.
