Neurofeedback

Neurofeedback is available at Chesapeake Neurology Associates. Neurofeedback is considered a form of biofeedback training. The term biofeedback refers to treatment or training that involves allowing the individual to become consciously aware of body functions that they are normally not aware of. The individual is then able to control these functions. Neurofeedback involves the placement of wire sensors on the individual's head to measure the electrical activity of the brain (EEG). Benefits of neurofeedback can often begin in as little as five sessions and the effects are long-lasting.

Biofeedback

Biofeedback is a form of training in which you use instruments to measure body functions that are not normally in your conscious awareness, and then teaching you ways of changing or controlling this physiology with goals of improved function.

At Chesapeake Neurology Associates, we have found that many of the disorders we treat (insomnia, migraines, chronic pain, anxiety and others) are directly influenced by the acute stress reaction. This stress reaction is mediated by the adrenaline response in the body. We have found that the biofeedback technique offers a direct insight into how your body responds to stress and how you can learn to control that response. Self-awareness and self-control usually results in dramatic improvements in these conditions.

We have found The Journey to Wild Divine  to be an effective, convenient, and low-cost way of bringing biofeedback techniques to our patients. It teaches self-awareness of your body's stress response, and teaches methods of controlling this response. It includes basic breathing techniques, relaxation exercises and introductory meditation techniques. It is a wonderful "game" that equips you with basic tools that can be used daily in this stressful world we live in.
