Consider Peoria Neurofeedback as Treatment for Your Mental Health Concerns
Standard counseling and therapy services effectively treat mental health illnesses and their symptoms. However, counseling isn’t always practical for everyone without additional treatment. To this end, Chapin & Russell Associates has begun offering alternative mental health treatment options for those interested. For example, we are one of the only local facilities to offer neurofeedback treatment for Central Illinois. To learn more about Peoria neurofeedback and how it can help “train your brain,” talk with the professionals at Chapin & Russell Associates.
What’s Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is quickly becoming a proven and preferred method for treating some of mental health illnesses’ worst symptoms. This drug-free treatment utilizes electrodes that attach to your scalp and measure brain activity. While monitoring your brain waves, we have clients participate in tasks and activities designed to instill specific brain functions. The information we gather through neurofeedback allows us to engage in further treatment that teaches your brain to develop and sustain desired brainwave patterns.
How Neurofeedback Treatment is Helpful
Emotional dysregulation is a common symptom of most mental health issues. Emotional dysregulation, a disruption of your brain wave patterns, can be caused by stress, trauma, lack of sleep, brain injuries, and more. Through Peoria neurofeedback, the brain functions most causing dysregulation are targeted, as specialists work to “reteach” your brain to more closely regulate itself. As the field of neurofeedback has progressed, it has proven beneficial for treating:
- Chronic Pain
- Anxiety
- ADHD
- Learning Disabilities
- Burnout
- Depression
- Fatigue
- Addiction
- And More
Why Choose Neurofeedback Over Other Treatment Options?
In addition to traditional therapy and other treatments, neurofeedback has proven incredibly effective in addressing individuals’ severe mental health symptoms. In many cases, neurofeedback can be more beneficial than psychotherapy treatment. For example, some of the added benefits of neurofeedback include:
- Non-Invasive & Chemical Free
- In searching for alternatives to therapy, medication is often suggested. However, not everyone feels comfortable using prescription treatments for mental health illness. Neurofeedback instead offers a drug-free, non-invasive treatment procedure that works.
- Little to no Negative Side Effects
- As neurofeedback doesn’t rely on chemicals, it’s also a safe procedure with little to no adverse side effects. The only “side effects” of neurotherapy treatment are potentially tired brains and regulated brain wave patterns.
- Treatment that Works
- We’ve said it more than once, but neurofeedback is a mental health treatment option that works. Additionally, the effects of neurofeedback are long-lasting, as the brain wave training our clients receive is rarely “unlearned” after the completion of procedures.
