School-based Brain Training Shown to Alleviate ADHD
By Deborah Kotz • February 17, 2014
With more than one in 10 children diagnosed with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, parents and doctors alike have been eager to find alternatives to prescription stimulant medications like Ritalin or Adderall. Some of these options include computer programs that train the brain to increase attention span and a therapy called neurofeedback where a practitioner teaches children how to keep their brain calm and focused. -

Enhancing the effectiveness of neurofeedback for dementia and cognitive impairments through corrective doses of ascorbic acid.
By John Putman • January 31st, 2025
Neurofeedback has established itself as a safe and effective technique that can enhance brain function-through improving the efficiency of the neural networks in the brain. It has proven its effectiveness in disorders such as epilepsy, ADHD, head injuries, learning disabilities, autism, mood instabilities, sleep and chronic pain. In such cases we are dealing with a reasonably healthy neural network that is not in an optimal state of functioning. By "healthy", I mean in terms of the physical integrity of the overall neural structure -where the issue is confined to the domain of network timing and sequencing. -
A Revisionist View of Neurofeedback
By Siegfried Othmer • December 31st, 2024
One reason that formal research on neurofeedback by people in the academic community hasn't generally matched what is being accomplished clinically is surely that researchers tended to take the operant conditioning model seriously. Plainly, the rigorous instantiation of a 'purist' operant conditioning design of the original SMR-beta protocols leads to a rather inefficient training procedure. This can also be said of the original work of Sterman and Lubar, as they were doing their utmost to stay true to B.F. Skinner's experimental design. Their work sufficed to provide the method a rigorous and sound foundation, but in the clinical realm such an inefficient method of brain training would be dead on arrival. -
On the Life of Brian Othmer
By Siegfried Othmer • August 23rd, 2024
For many early neurofeedback professionals, the impetus to enter this field came through a compelling personal experience either with their personal training, that of a family member, or that of a client. And thus it was with us as well. In fact, our first encounter with neurofeedback through our son Brian remains a standout success even in the context of the subsequent third of a century of often ground-breaking clinical experience.
