A Comprehensive, Individualized
Approach

Neurotherapy trains individuals to self-regulate, gain awareness, increase control over their brain/nervous system, and improve physiological flexibility. Our programs are suited for children and adults.

Brain Mapping

Brain Mapping or Quantitative Electroencephalography (QEEG) is a procedure that records and processes EEG activity of the human brain from 19 or more electrodes that rest on the scalp surface. The digital recorded EEG data is statistically analyzed and compared with normative referenced database values. The processed EEG is converted into color maps of brain functioning called a “Brain Mapping”. QEEG is part of the comprehensive integrated assessment provided upon initiation of services at Neurotherapy Center of Nebraska.

Quantitative electroencephalography (QEEG) has been utilized for many decades. Hans Berger is recognized for performing the first QEEG analysis in 1934. Today, over 90,000 QEEG studies have been cited in the National Library of Medicine database by the National Institute of Health.

As a result of dedicated individuals in the field of neuroscience and the advancements in computer technology, QEEG has the ability to measure very complex network dynamics that, in the past have been difficult to quantify. Advanced computer analysis makes it possible for QEEG to measure specific patterns in multiple locations around the brain simultaneously. Brain mapping utilizes QEEG data to graphically display brain function as represented by colored brain maps, graphs, and charts.

Neurocounseling

Neurocounseling is a new approach to the counseling process that integrates knowledge of the brain and related physiology into clinical practice. Integrating brain function into mental health treatment offers clients a more holistic treatment approach. A neurocounselor uses the understanding of the interplay between the brain, its structures and its functions to gain a richer understanding of the client and his or her presenting concerns. A neurocounselor is able to incorporate all of this into the therapy sessions which helps clients view themselves through a different lens. It helps clients understand that they are more than their thoughts, behaviors, and symptoms. Clients tend to like this approach as it helps to destigmatize mental health and offers relief in knowing that physiology plays a role in the behaviors and emotions.

Neurocounseling has the potential to enhance treatment strategies beyond traditional counseling approaches. Understanding the connectedness of the brain and related physiology benefits both the counselor and the client and in turn the work that they are able to accomplish together. This understanding of the brain and its function allows counselors to embrace even more benefits of the therapeutic relationship.

Biofeedback

“Biofeedback is a process that enables an individual to learn how to change physiological activity for the purposes of improving health and performance. Precise instruments measure physiological activity such as brainwaves, heart function, breathing, muscle activity, and skin temperature. These instruments rapidly and accurately “feed back” information to the user. The presentation of this information — often in conjunction with changes in thinking, emotions, and behavior — supports desired physiological changes. Over time, these changes can endure without continued use of an instrument.”

Biofeedback and has been shown to be an effective treatment for migraine and tension type headache, urinary incontinence, high blood pressure, anxiety, and a number of other conditions. A growing body of research indicates that neurofeedback, (also known as EEG biofeedback) is an effective treatment for attention deficit hyperactivity disorder and can help manage the symptoms of autistic spectrum disorders, brain injury, posttraumatic stress, seizures, and depression. Corporate executives, musicians, artists, and athletes, including some of the medal winners in this year’s Beijing Olympics, use biofeedback and neurofeedback to reach their peaks in competition and performance.

Neurofeedback

Neurofeedback, often referred to as EEG biofeedback or brain wave training, is a type of biofeedback in which individuals are trained to improve their brain function.

Neurofeedback or EEG biofeedback is a type of biofeedback that involves learning to control and optimize brain function. Neurofeedback may or may not include the use of a direct stimulus or task when teaching the brain new ways of performing.

Neurofeedback has been practiced for well over four decades. Hundreds of thousands of individuals and families impacted by various mental health and/or neurological conditions have benefited greatly from this powerful, effective, established, and proven intervention.

Like other forms of biofeedback, Neurofeedback Training uses monitoring devices to provide moment-to-moment information to an individual on the state of their physiological functioning. The characteristic that distinguishes neurofeedback from other biofeedback is a focus on the central nervous system and the brain. Neurofeedback Training has its foundations in basic and applied neuroscience as well as data-based clinical practice. It considers behavioral, cognitive, and subjective aspects as well as brain activity.

Neuromodulation

Neuromodulation is a therapeutic technique that improves the function of the nervous system. It can involve electrical and magnetic energy to stimulate and entrain the brain into re-balancing itself. Our neuromodulation therapies are safe, non-invasive, and help induce neuroplasticity – the brain’s ability to learn, adapt and change. NCN utilizes NeuroField technologies for neuromodulation training, including:

pEMF

Ultra-low intensity, pulsed electromagnetic field (pEMF) works to replenish energy and reduce stress in the brain and body.  A system that is more energetically balanced is a system that can function more efficiently and effectively. Over 2,000 published clinical studies on the vast benefits of pEMF therapy have been published in scientific literature.

 

tDCS and tACS

Transcranial direct and alternating current stimulation and are noninvasive tools to modulate neural activity in the brain using low intensity electrical currents.

CBT

Cognitive Behavioral Therapy (CBT) is the most effective approach for a variety of psychological problems. The therapy relationship is collaborative and goal-oriented, and the focus is on thoughts, beliefs, assumptions and behaviors. In CBT, the goal is for a person to develop more realistic and rational perspectives, and make healthier behavioral choices, as well as to feel relief from negative emotional states. Specific techniques, strategies and methods are used to help people to improve their mood, relationships, and school/work performance.

BioMat

The biomat is a non-invasive therapeutic device that uses a combination of far infrared light, negative ions, and amethyst crystals to energize cells, relieve stress, reduce toxins, and balance energy in the body. The Biomat is scientifically validated and FDA approved. The Biomat technology is based on Nobel Prize winning research of Erwin Neher and Bert Sakmann, as well as NASA pioneered research.

The Biomat works in three ways to balance energy and improve the body’s ability to repair itself naturally. First, the far infrared light provides a unique, penetrating heat that helps relax cells and soothe away stress. Second, the amethyst crystals work to focus and amplify the infrared light to a specific wavelength that is most beneficial to the organic molecules that make up our bodies.  Finally, the Biomat provides the body with negative ions that work to mobilize cellular processes, effectively increasing cellular turnover and drawing out toxins for elimination.
