NEUROFEEDBACK

This relaxation provides one additional, but especially important service – making one more receptive to all of the support and treatments around them. By addressing daily anxieties and replacing them with a calm and relaxed state, people’s inhibitions disappear. People who were previously resistant to treatment or therapy can finally start to open up. They become more willing to speak in group therapy or to continuously engage with meditation practices. Neurofeedback can also aid in the process of creating new and positive interpersonal connections, and allowing one to be more outgoing with new experiences. All of this serves that original purpose: redefining and establishing homeostasis outside of addiction and mental health disorders.

Dealing with emotions and healthcare is an exhausting, trying process, especially when coupled with mental health issues like anxiety, PTSD, and addiction. The unique trials that face a first responder are not easy to overcome. However, therapists may have found a way to make the process of healing easier by studying the brain. By monitoring and getting feedback from one’s brain in a relaxed state, people can process these feelings in a safe environment. Finally, the brain is allowed to move through and past the trauma of their lives, and all other disorders that surface along the way in the path to recovery.
