How Neurofeedback Works

BrainCore Neurofeedback is Fitness Training for the Brain!

BrainCore Neurofeedback, is a state-of-the-art, non-invasive, and drug-less method for training the brain to function in a way that is more balanced and healthful. This training is a simple and pleasant learning method that can help the brain shift the way it produces and distributes its electrical signals. There are four divisions of electrical impulses made by our brain that we focus on are Delta, Theta, Alpha and Beta. We refer to these divisions as “Frequency Bands”. When we monitor these frequency bands we learn which parts of your brain are active during different states of mind. Our system is able to compare which frequency bands the brain is using against what it should be using to complete a given task.

Frequency Bands in Everyday Life

During normal daily activities like financial math, or following directions in school or work, certain areas of our brain will need to be more active and use the faster frequencies called Beta waves. Conversely, if we want to relax and wind down after a long day, a different part of the brain will need to be activated and use the slower brainwave frequency called Alpha. With Neurofeedback our goal is to improve the brain’s ability to regulate itself, maintain flexibility, and easily transition between relaxed and aroused states. The brain also controls Attention and Emotional Regulation, this ultimately allows the entire Central Nervous System to resume normal function.  

Neurofeedback Training Sessions

Whether you come in to our office for training sessions, or you take advantage of our home training option, you will be connected to a computer via sensors and wires, which allows the system to monitor the brain's activity. The training software will automatically detect when the brainwaves are more regulated, and feeds that information back to your brain instantly. The feedback will be a movie, game, visual or sound which signals to your brain that the brainwaves are becoming more regulated. These brainwaves actually control the appearance and sound of the movie or game, and by observing this dynamic the brain can learn how to better regulate itself.
