Because there are different “brands” of neurofeedback, there are various methods. Pneuma Counseling offers the traditional EEG-style method of Neurofeedback using Othmer software, and we also offer the NeurOptimal® Systems.
Instead of providing specific “direction”, Dynamical Neurofeedback® is designed to take advantage of the brain’s natural learning processes by encouraging it to function as originally designed. NeurOptimal®’s neurofeedback trainers then simply promote and facilitate the brain’s natural tendency toward self-regulation, resilience and flexibility.
The software used in the Othmer Neurofeedback is a system of direct training of brain function, by which the brain learns to function more efficiently. Based on the clinician's settings, the software observes the brain in action from moment to moment and then shows that information back to the person through sight, sound and touch.
