Thanks Mark. I will be sure to ask more information based on what you said. I cannot tell what type it is (volitional vs. non-volitional). All I do is stare at a scene on the computer screen - usually a beach or northern lights scene. It is not a game. I know that the administrator looks at my brain waves, and she tells me that when I am watching the screen, my waves go from "chaotic" to "calm".

Is that what you mean by "measuring the improvement by changes in waveforms"?

Is there a type of neurofeedback that is most effective for TBI that you know of?

Thank you.

That would be non-volitional neurotherapy since you are not doing anything to cause the change. Do you have ear phones on or does she say if she is making any inputs ?

It does not sound impressive to me. If it was benefiting you, the chaos would start to decrease. Does she say anything about whether the level of chaos is decreasing ?

It sounds more like she is using it as a relaxation device. That is not uncommon. In fact, they usually get FDA approval to only promote it as a relaxation device.

The usual goal is to teach you how to cause your brain to go into the calm mode without the device. Sounds like a 'guard your wallet' situation to me.

No, I do not have ear phones on when I am doing it, though it does play music through speakers. And no, she does not say she is making inputs. I will ask if the level of chaos has decreased.
