BrainCore Therapy is a form of Neurofeedback that incorporates all of the latest technology aimed at teaching patients how to control their own brainwaves. It is a fascinating form of treatment that is backed by more than 30 years of university based research studies. Until recently the technology and equipment necessary to perform neurofeedback could only be found in research labs. Now, in the last five to ten years’ advancements in the field have allowed trained NeuroCore clinicians to offer this incredible form of therapy to the general public.
BrainCore Therapy does not diagnose or treat these actual conditions, however many people with these conditions have experienced a significant reduction in the associated symptoms using BrainCore Therapy.
BrainCore Therapy has unique programs for:
Neurofeedback has slumbered for more than 30 years. During that time research labs throughout the world have conducted thousands of experiments demonstrating the efficacy of neurofeedback as an alternative to drugs in the treatment of many different conditions. The effects of Neurofeedback are not subtle, they are robust and there is nothing else like it. It works on sound scientific principle based on the ability of the human brain to regulate itself. When the brain is properly regulated then symptoms such as inattention, hyperactivity, impulsiveness, loss of memory, headaches and chronic pain are reduced.
Neurofeedback is the simple process of quantifying electrical information from a persons brain, sharing it with that person, and teaching the person how to control the flow of that information in a way that makes the brain more vigorous and able to do a better job of managing body and mind.
In almost every area of our lives, we are able to improve our performance when we get clear and immediate feedback about how we are doing. Neuroscience has shown repeatedly that the brain is capable of enormous change or plasticity; the brain is amazingly adaptable. Advanced BrainCore technology using the NC-2000 provides instantaneous (real time) information to the brain about how it is functioning along with continuous hints or cues about how to make adjustments toward improved performance.
The body has a limited capacity to sense information coming from inside itself. However, if you monitor any biological process, amplify it, and feed it back to the brain, your brain can change that process and perform more optimally. That is the mechanism behind the BrainCore system. BrainCore Therapy integrates three scientifically and clinically proven therapies directed at correcting NDS. These therapies include:
Though the BrainCore technology is quite complex, the training activity is simple, painless, drugless and non-invasive. Surface electrodes are placed on the scalp and EEG activity is transmitted to the NC-2000 amplifier. It is important to note that BrainCore Therapy is completely non invasive. The sensors do not involve any input of electricity; they simply detect EEG activity. Auditory and visual feedback is provided instantly, so that the patient sees and hears representations of their brain in action. The patient is instructed to observe the auditory and visual feedback and allow the nervous system to reset itself based on that feedback. As the nervous system reorganizes itself based on this instantaneous information, the patterns begin to normalize. Over the course of 20 training sessions, neuroplastic modifications result in the permanent alleviation of the symptoms.
Dr. Barenborg has received certification as a BrainCore clinician from the University of Bridgeport Chiropractic College in July 2010.
