At the Neurotherapy Center of Virginia Beach we understand that each patient is unique. We offer a customized experience for your Neurofeedback needs.
How We Do Neurotherapy
When you come to the Neurotherapy Center of Virginia Beach for neurotherapy we look at the whole person to customize a plan to address your specific concerns, which may include brainmapping, and a series of sessions using various forms of neurotherapy and neurofeedback.
What happens during an EEG neurofeedback session
Generally there are thirty minutes of actual brainwave training in a one hour session. The practitioner, using information from the initial intake session, chooses the location of sensors that are placed on the scalp, allowing electrical activity of the brain to be recorded and analyzed by computer. A movie is viewed by the client. When the brain successfully achieves the desired brainwave state, the movie maintains its brightness or full size, giving a visual reward. The movie darkens or it's size shrinks when the brain is not focused on the targeted exercise. Gradually, the brain learns to respond to the rewards, resulting in more focused and flexible brain functioning. Improved self-regulation of brainwave activity permits the best available response whenever needed in daily life.
Brainmapping
Quantitative EEG, or “brain mapping” is a way of assessing the operation and functionality of your brain with the comparison of normative and clinical databases, and the processing of 20 minutes of brainwaves (EEG) recording. EEG is the measurement, using digital technology, of electrical patterns at the surface of the scalp which primarily reflect brainwave activity on the cortex (the “bark” of the brain). Neurotherapists use this knowledge to adjust cerebral function towards ideals with operant conditioning, counseling, and neuromodulation. Brain mapping is analyzing the electrical activity or "brainwaves."
Brain Training
Z-Score Training
Z-score training involves identifying the aberrant brainwave amounts, patterns and relationships and comparing them to a normal sample of persons similar in age and sex as you. Using standard deviations from the norm we can see how deviant the brain is behaving. Using both the presenting problems, as well as your presentation and skill sets as a gauge, we develop a unique, data-driven protocol (a converse blueprint—molded to fit the client’s brain) to train you towards health.
Neuroguide
The Neuroguide Analysis system is used for the statistical evaluation of your quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG). Neuroguide is a multi-faceted quantitative EEG and neurofeedback system that interfaces with other software modalities, making for a robust training platform.
