At Sydney Neurofeedback Centre we offer drug-free relief from symptoms of conditions such as

• ADHD (hyperactive and/or inattentive)

• Learning Disorders

• Epilepsy

• Depression

• Anxiety & panic attacks

• Sleep problems

• Autism Spectrum Disorders

• Minor Traumatic Brain Injury

• Child Behavioural Difficulties

Using state of the art technology, we employ Quantitative EEG to create brain maps which illustrate the electrical activity of the brain. This is then statistically compared to a database of ‘normal’ brain activity, providing a quantitative indication of the differences in brain function from normal. The functional Brainwave patterns so revealed can indicate the underlying brain physiology that may be associated with certain dysfunctional conditions, as well as the severity of the condition. 

The QEEG brain map of brainwave activity guides appropriate neurofeedback training to address any deviations in brainwave activity, normalising brain function and reducing symptoms. Nutritional supplementation may also be necessary to optimise brain health.

Our approach is based on scientific evidence from continuing research in Neurofeedback which first started in 1970 with Professor Barry Sterman in the EEG Lab of the University of Los Angeles in California.

Hundreds of scientific papers since attest to the effectiveness of Neurofeedback. Several recent research and review papers support the effectiveness of Neurofeedback, which has been shown to be as effective as stimulant medication (Ritalin and Dexamphetamine) in the treatment of ADHD. Our Neurofeedback training methods are in accordance with this research literature.

We recognise that the same conditions can present with diverse underlying physiology in different individuals. As a result, we pride ourselves on providing highly individualised care, based on the results of objective measurement. We regularly assess progress to ensure treatment is having the most beneficial effect possible.
