Bipolar Protocols

What is a Bipolar Protocol Any time you train in a channel, you are training the difference between the active and reference electrode signals. The fact is that you are training the pyramidal neurons close to the line between the active and reference sites whose axons happen to be pretty much parallel to the line. […]

Tips for Training Children and Adolescents

Training Tips for Children and Adolescents Doing neurofeedback with people under age 18 can be very different from brain-training adults. The following information may make your work go more smoothly. Assessments and Young Children The first step in neurofeedback is usually a Trainers’ QEEG. However, I generally wouldn’t even try to do an assessment on […]

EMDR

EMDR (Eye movement desensitization and reprocessing) EMDR, when it works, is faster than neurofeedback, but it is very specific to an individual traumatic memory, so you have to do it a bunch of times if the client has more than one or two traumatic memories–and some clients are very disturbed by the process of bringing […]

Bandpass Filters

Bandpass Filters and Thresholds The bandpass filters simply define the frequency to be passed and do not say anything about the protocol. The threshold objects HAVE to have a definition of whether the signal is to be rewarded or inhibited.  If you go to the Objects menu and choose any of the Thresholds on the […]

Contraindications for Training

I don’t think of anything that would be contra-indicated for brain training if you are willing to take on the person/support system that carries the brain around. We screened out families with split parents (one strongly favoring training, the other strongly opposed) and kids on three or more psychoactive meds. We worked with things that […]

4C RH Bipolar

4 Channel Right Hemisphere Bipolar How To: https://provider.brain-trainer.com/resources/bal4c-rh-bipolar This particular design, the 4C RH Bipolar, is a type of bipolar training that trains a combination of effective bipolar montages. They are: C4/T4 (reducing fast/increasing slow differences between the sites) often very helpful for reducing physical hyperactivity. Fp2/T4 (reducing fast/increasing slow differences between the sites) often […]

Entrainment

Entrainment The brain is essentially an organ that receives information from outside (sensory inputs) and inside (memories, emotional responses, associations with previous experience), integrates all this and responds to it with motor outputs (speaking, acting) and changes in its own body’s internal environment. This is a constant cycle with outputs creating inputs (how did the […]
