Neurofeedback and Biofeedback Services
At South Florida Integrative Medicine, we offer our patients Neurofeedback and HeartMath biofeedback services as a standalone treatment plan or as a complementary layer to a patient’s therapy and/or psychiatric services at our practice. These non-invasive therapies teach our bodies how to respond to personalized feedback about the way our own systems work naturally.
- Neurofeedback — A kind of biofeedback, which teaches self-control of brain functions to subjects by measuring brain waves and providing a feedback signal. Neurofeedback addresses a multitude of brain-related issues, including ADHD, PTSD, anxiety, depression, emotional and behavioral issues, learning and developmental disabilities, addiction and substance abuse disorders, chronic pain, migraines, seizures, and sleep deprivation. During neurofeedback therapy sessions our technician retrains the brain, bringing your brainwaves into an optimal state of balance and improving its performance.
- Brain Mapping (QEEG) — An in-depth visual map of the brain to discern patterns and irregularities in the brain’s functions. QEEGs are run at the beginning and mid-way point of a patient’s neurofeedback treatment plan.
- HeartMath – The HeartMath EmWave Stress Relief System is a form of Biofeedback which focuses on heart wave variability and coherence. The goal of HeartMath Biofeedback is to teach you how to bring your brain, mind, body and emotions into balanced alignment. This balanced state is called coherence.
