At Dr. Luz Feldmann, MD, we offer cutting-edge neurofeedback therapy to help you optimize brain function, improve cognitive performance, and enhance emotional well-being. Neurofeedback is a non-invasive, drug-free approach that trains your brain to function more efficiently by providing real-time feedback on your brainwave activity. By addressing the underlying neurological imbalances associated with cognitive decline, insomnia, ADD, anxiety, depression, and balance problems, neurofeedback can help you achieve lasting improvements in mental clarity, focus, sleep quality, mood stability, and overall neurological health.
Neurofeedback, also known as EEG biofeedback, is a type of brain training that uses real-time feedback to help you learn how to regulate your brainwave activity. During a neurofeedback session, sensors are placed on your scalp to measure your brainwave patterns while you engage in various tasks or activities. This information is then displayed on a computer screen, allowing you to see how your brain responds in real-time.
By observing your brainwave activity and learning to control it through positive reinforcement, neurofeedback can help you develop healthier, more efficient patterns of neural communication. Over time, this process of self-regulation can lead to lasting improvements in cognitive function, emotional regulation, and overall brain health.
Dr. Feldmann uses neurofeedback to address a wide range of neurological and psychological conditions, including:
By identifying and targeting the specific brainwave patterns associated with each condition, neurofeedback can help restore optimal brain function and alleviate symptoms, often without the need for medication or invasive treatments.
Dr. Feldmann, MD's neurofeedback protocol begins with a comprehensive assessment of your brain function, including a detailed medical history, symptom evaluation, and quantitative electroencephalogram (qEEG) brain mapping. The qEEG provides a detailed analysis of your brainwave activity, identifying any areas of imbalance or dysfunction that may be contributing to your symptoms.
Based on this assessment, Dr. Feldmann, MD, will create a personalized neurofeedback training plan tailored to your unique needs and goals. During each neurofeedback session, you will engage in specific tasks or activities designed to target and normalize your brainwave patterns. As you learn to regulate your brainwave activity through positive reinforcement, you will develop healthier, more efficient patterns of neural communication.
Throughout your neurofeedback journey, Dr. Feldmann, MD, will closely monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to your training plan to ensure optimal results. She may also recommend complementary therapies, such as nutritional support, lifestyle modifications, or stress management techniques, to enhance the benefits of neurofeedback and support your overall brain health.
Neurofeedback sessions are typically conducted in a comfortable, relaxed setting. You will sit in a chair while sensors are placed on your scalp to measure your brainwave activity. These sensors do not produce any sensation or transmit any electrical current; they simply record your brain's natural electrical activity.
During the session, you will engage in various tasks or activities, such as watching a video, listening to music, or playing a game. As you engage in these activities, the neurofeedback system will provide real-time feedback on your brainwave patterns, typically in the form of visual or auditory cues. For example, you may see a game character move faster or hear a tone change pitch as your brainwave activity shifts towards the desired pattern.
Most neurofeedback sessions last between 30-60 minutes, and you may need anywhere from 20-40 sessions to achieve optimal results, depending on your individual needs and goals. Many people begin to notice improvements in their symptoms and overall brain function within the first few sessions, with the benefits continuing to build over the course of treatment.
Neurofeedback is supported by a growing body of scientific research demonstrating its effectiveness for a wide range of neurological and psychological conditions. Some of the key studies supporting the use of neurofeedback include:
These studies, among many others, demonstrate the powerful potential of neurofeedback to optimize brain function, alleviate symptoms, and improve overall quality of life for individuals struggling with a wide range of neurological and psychological conditions.
At Dr. Luz Feldmann, MD, we understand that investing in your brain health is an investment in your overall quality of life and long-term well-being. During your initial consultation, Dr. Feldmann, MD, will discuss the recommended neurofeedback protocol, including the number and frequency of sessions, and provide a transparent overview of the associated costs.
We offer flexible payment options and can help you navigate your insurance coverage to maximize your benefits. While neurofeedback may not be covered by all insurance plans, we believe that the long-term benefits of optimizing your brain function and achieving lasting symptom relief far outweigh the initial investment.

Yes, neurofeedback is a safe, non-invasive, and drug-free therapy with no known significant side effects. The sensors used during neurofeedback sessions do not produce any sensation or transmit any electrical current; they simply record your brain's natural electrical activity. Dr. Feldmann will carefully monitor your progress and make any necessary adjustments to ensure a safe and effective experience.
The number of neurofeedback sessions needed varies depending on your individual needs, goals, and response to treatment. Most people require between 20-40 sessions to achieve optimal results, with sessions typically conducted 1-3 times per week. Dr. Feldmann will work with you to develop a personalized treatment plan and adjust the frequency and duration of sessions as needed based on your progress.
While neurofeedback can be a powerful tool for optimizing brain function and alleviating symptoms, it is not intended to replace prescribed medications without proper medical supervision. Dr. Feldmann will work closely with you and your healthcare team to determine the most appropriate integration of neurofeedback with any existing treatment plans. In some cases, individuals may be able to reduce or eliminate their reliance on medication as their brain function improves through neurofeedback training.
The effects of neurofeedback are typically long-lasting, as the therapy promotes the development of healthier, more efficient patterns of neural communication. Many people maintain the benefits of neurofeedback long after completing their initial course of treatment, especially when they continue to practice healthy lifestyle habits that support optimal brain function. Dr. Feldmann may recommend periodic "booster" sessions to help you maintain your progress and address any new challenges that may arise over time.
Yes, neurofeedback has shown promise in addressing a wide range of neurological and psychological conditions beyond those specifically mentioned here. If you have a condition or symptom that you believe may benefit from neurofeedback, Dr. Feldmann encourages you to schedule a consultation to discuss your unique needs and goals. She will work with you to determine whether neurofeedback is an appropriate treatment option and develop a personalized plan to help you achieve optimal brain health and well-being.
