Microcurrent Neurofeedback (MCN)

Microcurrent neurofeedback is an innovative, non-invasive technique designed to optimize brain function and improve mental well-being. By gently stimulating the brain with tiny electrical currents, microcurrent neurofeedback helps to retrain and balance neural activity, providing numerous benefits for various cognitive and emotional issues. In this comprehensive guide, we'll explore the science behind microcurrent neurofeedback, its benefits, and how it can support your journey towards better brain health.

What is Microcurrent Neurofeedback?

Microcurrent neurofeedback, also known as Low-Energy Neurofeedback System (LENS), is a type of biofeedback therapy that uses subtle electrical signals to stimulate the brain and improve its function. By monitoring brainwave activity through electrodes placed on the scalp, microcurrent neurofeedback identifies irregularities in brain patterns and applies gentle electrical pulses to correct these imbalances. This process encourages the brain to self-regulate, leading to improved cognitive performance and emotional well-being.

How Microcurrent Neurofeedback Works

During a microcurrent neurofeedback session, a trained practitioner places electrodes on specific points on your scalp, which are connected to a neurofeedback device. This device measures your brainwave activity in real-time, identifying areas where brain function may be suboptimal. The device then delivers minuscule electrical currents (microcurrents) to the brain, gently stimulating neural activity and encouraging the brain to self-correct its patterns. Over time, these corrections can lead to lasting improvements in brain function and overall mental wellness.

Benefits of Microcurrent Neurofeedback:

1. Improved Focus and Concentration: Microcurrent neurofeedback can help to enhance attention and focus by rebalancing brainwave activity in regions responsible for cognitive processing. This can be particularly beneficial for individuals with attention deficit disorders, such as ADHD.
2. Reduced Anxiety and Stress: By regulating brain activity in areas linked to anxiety and stress, microcurrent neurofeedback can help to alleviate symptoms of anxiety and promote a greater sense of calm and relaxation.
3. Enhanced Memory and Learning: Improved neural connectivity and brainwave regulation can lead to better memory retention and learning capabilities, making microcurrent neurofeedback an excellent tool for boosting cognitive performance.
4. Support for Traumatic Brain Injuries: Microcurrent neurofeedback has shown promise in helping individuals recover from traumatic brain injuries by promoting neural plasticity and facilitating the brain's natural healing process.
5. Relief from Depression: By targeting brain regions associated with mood regulation, microcurrent neurofeedback can help to alleviate symptoms of depression and support emotional well-being.
6. Improved Sleep Quality: By balancing brainwave patterns and promoting relaxation, microcurrent neurofeedback can help to improve sleep quality and reduce insomnia-related issues.

What to Expect During a Microcurrent Neurofeedback Session

A typical microcurrent neurofeedback session lasts between 30 and 60 minutes. You'll be seated comfortably in a chair while a trained practitioner places electrodes on your scalp. The neurofeedback device will then monitor your brainwave activity and deliver gentle electrical currents as needed. The process is painless and non-invasive, and most clients report feeling relaxed during the session.

Microcurrent neurofeedback is a cutting-edge technique that offers numerous benefits for cognitive performance and mental well-being. By gently stimulating the brain and encouraging self-regulation, this innovative therapy can help to unlock your brain's potential and support your journey towards better brain health.

Science & Technology

Various studies of the brain have shown people who tend to suffer from anxiety, post-traumatic stress, depression, and other neurological conditions have shown high levels of delta wave activity. 

Micro Current Neurofeedback has been proven to reduce or eliminate high levels of delta wave activity. Brain scans done before and after treatment sessions have provided astounding results.

Preparing for a Session

Feel free to arrive at your sessions in relaxed clothing. The first session is a bit longer than the others, as your information is gathered along with your initial assessment. Plan on 30 minutes to be on the safe side. 

Please do not use any hair products on the day of your appointment. No gels or hairsprays, please. 

Makeup to the forehead area should also be avoided. 

The staff is looking forward to working with you.

Record Keeping

You will receive a 24-Hour Observation Form 24 hours after your session. To provide you with the highest level of care, please complete your form to give us an accurate picture of your positive responses. It is highly recommended that you keep a written journal of your experiences and any changes you may notice. Did colors seem more vivid? Were your thought processes marked with more clarity? Note the duration and quality of sleep. Any changes in appetite, anxiety or headaches? This is valuable information for your Nurse or Clinician when dialing in the treatment program specific to your needs and individual brain and central nervous system responses. While reactions rarely occur, immediately report any adverse conditions or feelings. 

Success Stories

Our experience shows that 85% of patients report a positive response within one to three treatments. For example, more than 85% of mild/moderate Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) patients report better sleep, plus a significant reduction in headache pain and/or duration, brain fog, and impulsivity. The same is also true for many patients suffering from anxiety and PTSD. These reported changes are generally enduring and sustainable.
