ABOUT MCN

Direct Neurofeedback or Microcurrrent Neurofeedback is a modality that offers numerous benefits and can aid in the treatment and improvement of a variety of conditions. Whether your intention is to optimize your brain function and liberate yourself from fixed patterns that no longer serve you, stimulating your brain with Microcurrent technology is fast emerging as a leading and revolutionary therapeutic modality.

How It Works:

EEG electrodes from a direct neurofeedback device are connected to various parts of your scalp to target specific regions of your brain. While every session is targeted to meet the specific needs of each client's objective or diagnosis, the autonomic nervous system, which helps the body to down-regulate and find calm during times of stress, is activated during treatment. In essence, this technology can restore the brain's normal and optimal functioning.
 

Exposure to trauma can physically change the brain. As an example, the prefrontal cortex, the area of the brain responsible for executive functioning, often diminishes after exposure to trauma. This is why conditions like PTSD and traumatic brain injuries are incredibly challenging to treat, as changes to the brain often result in fluctuating states of anxiety, depression, dissociation, and an inability to focus. Recent studies indicate that Direct and Microcurrent Neurofeedback therapy can be the missing link in aiding in the recovery for those suffering from the impacts of trauma. 
 

Neurons that fire together, wire together and Direct Neurofeedback works by disentraining the brain from its adaptive and fixed patterns. This allows the central nervous system to regain balance and normal functioning. The treatment involves administering brief microcurrent stimulation to the brain, which results in a temporary fluctuation in brainwaves, and allows the brain to reorganize itself, and is similar to rebooting a glitchy computer.
 

Research shows that 85% of clients observe a noticeable, positive response in one to three sessions, and participants in a recent study at San Diego State University with traumatic brain injury reported a reduction in pain, brain fog, impulsivity, and better sleep after just a few sessions. The same holds true for clients suffering from ADHD, anxiety, PTSD, and many other psychological and nervous system disorders.
 

Direct Neurofeedback is a valuable approach that allows the brain to re-establish a healthier neuro-chemical balance, promoting neuroplasticity. It offers hope for those who have been unable to find relief through traditional therapeutic interventions alone. With its ability to heal and improve a variety of conditions, it is no wonder that Direct Neurofeedback is gaining popularity and recognition as an effective therapeutic approach.
