Neurofeedback Science

Explore the science behind neurofeedback and Anywhere Neurofeedback's integrative therapies.

Neurofeedback

At Anywhere Neurofeedback, we don’t believe healing requires the flashiest newest unproven gadgets. This can add to the confusion instead of clarity. Our approach is different: we use time-tested neurofeedback methods with decades of research with consistent 80% or more improvement rate in anxiety, sleep, focus, and stress. (Unheard of anywhere else in mental health). While nothing is flashy, we’re proud to offer tried-and-true, university researched services that deliver meaningful, lasting change.

Integrating Neuro Meditation and Trataka Meditation

Integrating Meditation and Trataka(Candle gazing) to enhanced therapeutic outcomes and healing. While other options are available as candle gazing might not feel right for everyone we utilize it to significantly improve relaxation, anxiety, depression, and focus.

Brainspotting Therapy

Brainspotting is a therapeutic approach that identifies, processes, and releases trauma, stress, and emotional blockages by using a person’s eye position as a guide. The basic idea is that where a person looks can correspond to areas in the brain where unresolved trauma or tension is stored. By maintaining focus on these “brainspots” while in a safe therapeutic setting, clients can access and process deeply held emotions without being overwhelmed. It is particularly helpful for conditions like PTSD, anxiety, and chronic pain because it allows the nervous system to regulate and release stuck emotional and physiological responses. Many clients report feeling emotional relief, increased clarity, and reduced tension after sessions, often with faster results than traditional talk therapy alone.

A Note on QEEG (AKA Brain Maps)

At Anywhere Neurofeedback, we provide time-tested protocols that consistently see meaningful improvements. We train significantly in clinical assessment, to get these significantly high results to you in your home. While affordable QEEG technology that provides reliable data is currently only available in-person, with only highly trained practitioners. Our approach keeps it simple, effective, and accessible delivering high-quality remote neurofeedback at a price that truly provides value, without sacrificing results.

We will only recommend you to highly trained QEEG in person practitioners if this is a desire. They can help us dial in targets for our at home system, also why use us if you live next door a quality QEEG center?

Brainspotting and Trataka

We utilize Trataka meditation to improve focus and reduce anxiety and depression. While neurofeedback alone is a significant brain workout we need to process trauma with Brainspotting, and existential changes of how life looks now with a more efficient brain.

Trataka (Candle Gazing):

Anxiety Reduction in Adolescents: A study published in the Journal of Complementary and Integrative Medicine found that Trataka significantly decreased anxiety levels among adolescents, highlighting its potential as a therapeutic tool for this age group. PubMed
Enhanced Cognitive Function in the Elderly: Research in Frontiers in Psychology demonstrated that Trataka improved working memory, spatial memory, and spatial attention in older adults, suggesting cognitive benefits beyond anxiety reduction. Frontiers
Mental Relaxation and Stress Reduction: A study published in the International Journal of Yoga reported that Trataka practice led to increased alpha brainwave activity, associated with mental relaxation, and reduced stress levels among participants. ResearchGate
Comparison with Relaxation Techniques: An investigation into Trataka's effectiveness compared to traditional relaxation methods found that Trataka was more effective in reducing anxiety levels, particularly in children undergoing dental procedures. Lippincott Journals

Anywhere Neurofeedbacks Neurofeedback

Anywhere Neurofeedback uses Classical Scott-Peniston protocols for Clinical Stabilization and Neuro Meditative Institute protocols for growth and performance.

PTSD and Trauma Treatment: Anywhere Neurofeedback utilizes the alpha-theta neurofeedback protocol, which is designed to help clients access a calm state to process trauma. A study reported that 89% of participants with PTSD experienced symptom improvement after 20 sessions. The system facilitates emotional processing in a safe and controlled manner. Neurofeedback For Health

Neurofeedback is not recommended as a standalone treatment for PTSD.

The NeuroMeditation Institute conducted research on enhanced emotional regulation, PTSD improvement, and attention, memory, and cognitive function. NeuroMeditation Institute

Addiction: The Scott-Peniston protocols used in Anywhere Neurofeedback have demonstrated improved sobriety rates in multiple studies, including a 79% abstinence rate at 12 months in a UCLA trial. American Journal of Drug and Alcohol AbuseVol: 31:455-469, 2005

ADHD and Spectrum Disorders: Anywhere Neurofeedback has also been applied to improve attention, executive functioning, and other cognitive skills in individuals with ADHD. The approach is highly individualized. The Transformational Power of the Peniston Protocol

Muscle Tension and Jaw Tension: Conditions effecting tension headaches, teeth grinding, and muscle pain. We find significanly high results for minor tension and headaches. Although it is important to be realistic with chronic pain, a 46% reduction can be a massive life change. A 2024 study found 46% improvement in reduction in chronic pain patients. EEG Alpha Uptrain

Other Common Conditions: We cannot list all research on a website. Although other common conditions include, sleep, anxiety, lethargy, brain fog, and over arousal.
