Obviously, both were very high functioning prior to the TBIs, and were returned to that condition.
In addition, headaches essentially disappeared and depression lifted.
The equipment we were using is called NeurOptimal, developed by the Zengar Institute of British Columbia. Very easy to use, does not require a Quantitative EEG for diagnosis.
This is not enough data for us to be sure that neurofeedback is a good way of addressing the problems that result from TBIs, but it seems very promising, and we are continuing to gather data, and hope to design a study that will be more definitive.
I hope this is helpful. Valleybob, I hope you'll post about your experience.
