What is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a non-invasive technique used to help the brain self-regulate. Using sensors and specialized software, we directly measure brainwave activity and reflect it through a video display. This process, also known as brain mapping, allows the brain to see its activity and then adjust itself for improved brain function.
Neurofeedback sessions do not transmit anything to the brain. Instead, we record information from the EEG and provide feedback. Neurofeedback brain training helps clients enhance cognitive, emotional, and behavioral skills, supporting children and adults in achieving self-regulation.

How Neurofeedback Works
Neurofeedback is a straightforward process, often known as neurofeedback brain training. It involves watching a movie of your choice while connected to EEG sensors. As you watch the film, these sensors monitor your brainwave activity, subtly guiding your brain toward more optimal functioning.
This process gives instant feedback to your brain by allowing the movie to play fully only when your brainwaves are in the optimal range. When brainwave activity is out of range, the movie fades, signalling to your brain that something is imbalanced.
Throughout UTBS’ brain performance training program, your brain learns from this feedback. This creates lasting structural changes that help your brain to consistently operate in an optimal range.
Is Neurofeedback Safe?
Neurofeedback is a safe, non-invasive therapy. It monitors your brain activity by using sensors placed on the scalp to provide real-time feedback that help your brain learn healthier patterns. Neurofeedback is a natural and effective way to improve brain function. It does not send electrical signals into the brain.
Neurofeedback is backed by research for its safety and effectiveness. Making it suitable for individuals of all ages.
What about Medications?
With successful neurofeedback training, the brain takes over more of the role of regulating itself. Meaning there may no longer be a need for medications for brain function or lower doses.
This decrease in medications can be striking when the medications play a supportive role in any event. At UTBS, we are aware that the more severe disorders that we are targeting with our work may prefer to work with medication. Clients must communicate with their prescribing physician regarding neurofeedback and medications. This will help you and your family get the best possible service tailored to your unique needs.
