Biofeedback Research

After nearly a decade of working with people from a mix of conditions there seem to be 4 underlying factors in nearly all of the cases. This is what our center's approach is built upon. Our Tucson neurofeedback specialists are here to help.

See links and medical studies below to view the research our center's approach has been established upon.

1. Address Mast Cell Dysfunction/Sensitivity Triggers

This will be the #1 most talked about underlying cause for nearly all chronic conditions. Especially Autoimmune and Inflammatory Conditions. It's a tricky condition with nasty effects.

We address this through both Biofeedback AND Neurofeedback Treatments.

2. Down-Regulate Inflammation

Cytokines, Chemokines, Prostaglandins. These all have been connected to inflammation, pain and Mast Cell Dysfunction.

Inflammation can show up in neurological disorders, chronic pain, chronic fatigue, anxiety/depression, GI issues & more.

We do this through Biofeedback, Neurofeedback and Frequency Specific Microcurrent - all 3 forms have decades of research backing their effectiveness boasting a success rate of more than 80%.

3. Drastically Reduce Stress & Balance the HPA Axis

Stresses the #1 Killer and Cause of all conditions. We hear it, we say it, we're told it. But what the heck do we do about it?

Biofeedback & Neurofeedback are phenomenal allies to: dramatically reduce our stress load, retrial our brain and nervous system to deal with stress more effectively and supporting our own ability to regulate our stress responses on our own.

4. Brain & Limbic System Retraining

Through Neurofeedback and other Brain Retraining Programs we support each person's Brain and Neurology to release feedback loops that keep them locked into recurrent: anxiety, pain, depression, migraines, seizures, chronic health ailments etc.

Summary: The Healing Power of Neurofeedback: The Revolutionary LENS Technique for Restoring Optimal Brain Function

Introduction.

Dr. Cory Hammond of the Univ. of Utah School of Medicine compiled this comprehensive list of studies and articles for the International Society of Neurofeedback and Research (ISNR). The organization encourages much more research. Additional research will help neuroscientists understand why Neurofeedback is often effective with many brain-based conditions. Over 1000 published studies that support the field are listed in this link. The initial research in Neurofeedback starting in the late 1960's was animal based. One of the first studies published showed that training cats to change their EEG increased their seizure threshold (reduced seizures). Before any human studies, there was solid animal research establishing that animals can change their EEG and that changes produce a profound effect on brain function.

This research listing categorizes by ADHD and Attention, migraines, anxiety, depression, seizures and a variety of other conditions. http://www.isnr.org/ComprehensiveBibliography.cfm

Summary: The LENS (Low Energy Neurofeedback System): A Clinical Outcomes Study on One Hundred clients at Stone Mountain Center, New York:

Introduction. The Low Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS) developed by Dr. Len Ochs (2006a) uses feedback in the form of a radio frequency carrier wave, administered at a positive offset frequency from the person's own dominant EEG frequency. Although it is an unusual biofeedback procedure, the feedback being invisible and the subject passive, clinical evidence supports the efficacy of the LENS across a spectrum of conditions. Published research studies (Schoenberger, Shifflet, Esty, Ochs, & Matheis, 2001; Donaldson, Sella, & Mueller, 1998; Mueller, Donaldson, Nelson, & Layman, 2001) have shown the effectiveness of the LENS method with traumatic brain injury (TBI) and with fibromyalgia. No study to date has evaluated LENS treatment across the spectrum of disorders and with a significantly large sample. This study was devised to address these issues. The study hypotheses were that the LENS treatment would be effective in reducing both systematic symptom ratings and measurements of EEG amplitudes, and that the therapeutic effect would produce the most rapid improvements in early sessions of treatment.

Method. “Blinded” research associates selected the first 100 clients from approximately 300 case files that met the following inclusion criteria: the person had received at least 10 treatment sessions, completed an initial CNS questionnaire, and that session-by-session subjective symptom ratings (SSRF) had been obtained. Clients ranged from 6 to 80 years old, almost evenly divided between male and female, with a wide range of symptoms and comorbid DSM-IV diagnoses.

Results. Data were statistically analyzed for significance and corelational variables. Average symptom ratings across 15 major problem areas (e.g., anxiety, mood disturbance, attentional problems, fatigue, pain, sleep problems, etc.) showed significant improvements (p < .0001) from beginning to end of treatment. After an average of only 20 treatments the mean average of client symptom ratings (0–10) declined from 7.92 to 3.96, a 50% improvement. Equally significant was the drop in EEG amplitude at the highest amplitude electrode site (HAS; p < .0001) as well as a lesser but still significant decrease at Cz (p < .002). A final analysis of the average symptom score with the HAS score showed them to be highly correlated. All hypotheses were confirmed.

Conclusions. LENS treatment appears to be very efficient and effective in rapidly reducing a wide range of symptoms. It particularly produces rapid improvements in the first five to six sessions.

About the Studies and Case Collections Mentioned

These are a legal requirement. They are meant to protect consumers from misleading or suggestive advertising statements (which they are unable to verify due to lack of specialist knowledge) or statements making explicit promises or suggesting a specific outcome. Among other things, this includes mentions of studies, indications or particularly treatment successes.

All this is why we provide the respective notes for the sources mentioned. Many studies, case collections and investigations exist and are mentioned here. they do not all comply, however, with the gold standard defined by conventional medicine. This is obviously not an exhaustive list, but is a place to begin for those interested in studies behind microcurrent, biofeedback and neurofeedback.

Studies Confirm Therapist Reports of Significant Symptom Reduction in Most BAUD Clients.

  • An ongoing study of the BAUD for PTSD is underway in the Tampa, Fl. area, conducted by Dr. George Lindenfeld and Dr. George Rozelle. The study will include 36 veterans from the Vietnam War, the Gulf War, and the Iraq/Afghanistan conflict. All will undergo BAUD sessions utilizing RESET therapy. QEEG brain maps will be taken before treatment and again after the therapy, as well as in a 3 month follow up, and changes will be analyzed. LORETA analysis will add detail of deep brain changes that occur as the result of this therapy, and results submitted for publication. A preliminary case study confirms positive changes seen in the amygdala, medial frontal cortex and Broca's area, with the subject reporting relief of symptoms.

BAUD Shows Promise as Adjunct In Chronic Pain Management: "Fortunately for the millions of clients who suffer from chronic pain, pioneering research is driving the development of new treatments focused on brain plasticity, with the more promising developments based on modulating activity in the limbic system. Since maladaptive brain plasticity creates chronic pain, it makes sense to address this process directly."

Resetting the Fear Switch in PTSD: A Novel Treatment Using Acoustical Neuromodulation to Modify Memory Reconsolidation: "Groundbreaking memory research has been ongoing over the last 15 years by many notable individuals including Joseph Ledoux, a neuroscientist at New York University, and Karim Nadar, his former graduate student and now professor at McGill University. Their work has laid the foundation for developing new memory-based therapies to treat PTSD including what we describe here as RESET Therapy. This interventions is designed to therapeutically interfere with or 'erase' fear/anxiety-based memories."

Treatment of Anxiety with the Bio Acoustic Activation Device: "Results of our pilot study are strong, suggesting the BAUD is effective in treating anxiety and warranting further research. Clients who received BAUD intervention showed improvement in their state and trait anxiety. This is notable because trait anxiety is associated with relatively stable personality characteristics. These results are made even stronger by our comparison group, which showed no specific decrease in anxiety."

Study of the BAUD Applications for Emotional and Chronic Pain Issues: "Presented at the 2010 conference of the International Society for Neurotherapy and Research by Dr. G. Frank Lawlis, inventor of the BAUD. Analyses of data collected from therapists in the US, Europe, Switzerland and Portugal applying the BAUD to a wide range of problems. Result: The BAUD was found to be effective in alleviating symptoms from a variety of psychological sources."

PTSD: Brain on Fire. A RESET Therapy QEEG Brain Map Analysis of an Afghanistan Combat Veteran: "When these hyper-aroused/hyper-sensitized circuits are interrupted through an acoustically-driven neuromodulation process, they appear to 'reset' back to (or closer to) a homeostatic norm that existed prior to the trauma experience. This neural reset is evidenced by the lasting reduction or elimination of the reported symptoms. The treatment enables the brain to re-establish plasticity that became frozen through the effects of trauma."
