I would love to know if anyone has had any success with neurofeedback and if so how long did it take before you started seeing results?

Is neurofeedback the same as biofeedback? I was just going to post a question about biofeedback myself, so I am interested in the responses. My therapist is moving, so as I am considering someone else there is one therapist who also does biofeedback and I wondered if anyone had tried and had success or not.

I was just wondering the same thing. If it's the same as biofeedback? My health insurance covers this and I was just going to look into it myself.

Just a note... I looked up both on Google, and it looks like they are two different things entirely. Biofeedback is some sort of a process or method used to control involuntary body functions such as breathing, blood pressure, and other things, and the Neurofeedback is something to do with measuring brain waves. I know nothing of either, I'm afraid, but it was an interesting search.

Yes I will say that Neurofeedback does work. But it takes alot longer to get results...so if one is on med's one may stay on it and work with the Neurofeedback. Its a program that pretty much measures your brain wave activity,,,,alpha and beta.....negative and positive. When you start having a negative thought the program STOPS...when you resume aligned good thoughts it resumes.....it measure the muscle tension and all.........no side effects all natural.....the person receiving is really doing all the work.........
