Research Based, Neuro Treatment in Patterson
What is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is form of therapeutic treatment that focuses on studying the brain. By analyzing information (feedback) gathered form brainwaves (neuro), we are able to track certain electrical patterns. This allows us to then establish a new and desired change that can diminish symptoms. We aim to create more controlled self-regulation that can minimize anxiety, depression, and other physical symptoms. We help our Patterson patients learn to regulate cranial functions and bring a calming balance to their lifestyle.
What is Biofeedback?
Biofeedback is another form of therapy that focuses on self-analysis. Biofeedback methods, however, specialize in the connection between the body and the mind. We measure the body (bio) and study the received information (feedback). This allows us to better understand your condition. Once the condition is understood, we can help our Patterson patients learn to control bodily functions, like breathing, skin temperature, and heart rate. Our techniques focus on small, subtle changes and your body’s responses. We help our patients learn to control these autonomic functions and reduce related stress. This is an effective technique to achieving a healthy way of life.*
What is QEEG?
QEEG stands for quantitative electroencephalogram. Simply stated, it is a brain map that measures certain electrical activity on the surface of your scalp. It allows us to better understand brainwaves patterns and additional cortical activity. We compare your specific EEG data with a reference database to look for correlating patterns. This identifies a condition and paves the way to creating an effective treatment plan. All of our treatment plans are personalized to the individual needs of our Patterson patients.

Common Neurofeedback & Biofeedback Questions:
How Does Neurofeedback Work?
Neurofeedback is the process of learning to control, regulate, and modify brainwave activity. Through the use of computers and additional modern technologies, we are able to track certain cranial functions and related responses. We can then promote or reduce certain frequencies to create a new electrical pattern. We establish this pattern with reinforcement and rewards. As this electrical pattern is shaped, your brain is able to learn to self-regulate and have a consistently improved performance.*
What Does the Neurofeedback Process Involve?
Neurofeedback begins by conducting a QEEG brain map. After recording and measuring this brainwave function, you will meet with Dr. Roseann to understand the information and begin making a treatment plan. After this is understood, you can begin your treatment plans and sessions. Each treatment plan is personalized, so the number of sessions can vary. Most of our Patterson patients come to our office twice a week. A sessions involves having harmless sensors placed on the scalp and ears while receiving brainwave reinforcement while you watch a movie.
How Do I Get Started with Neuro/BioFeedback?

Biofeedback and Neurofeedback are safe and beneficial alternatives to potentially harmful methods. They can treat and care for a variety of conditions in children, youth, and adults.
