Study on the Combined Use of ILF Neurofeedback and trauma psychotherapy for Posttraumatic Stress Disorder 

The study "Case Report: Infra-Low-Frequency Neurofeedback for PTSD: A Therapist's Perspective"
by Spreyermann (2022) shows how a combined therapy of trauma psychotherapy and Neurofeedback, specifically ILF Neurofeedback and alpha-theta training, can be used with patients diagnosed with complex post-traumatic stress disorder (C-PTSD). Two case studies are presented as well as an overall assessment of clinical outcomes over the past 7 years.

Sleep as a symptom - the importance of sleep and how Neurofeedback can help with sleep problems.

We all know of the importance of sleep, which we notice in particular when we have problems with it: Difficulties falling asleep and sleeping through the night, constantly waking up and having trouble getting back to sleep - sleep disorders are multifaceted, and so are their causes. In this blog post we want to explain why sleep is so important, what the consequences of poor sleep can be and how Neurofeedback can help with sleep problems.

Study supports use of ILF neurofeedback in integrative treatment of primary headaches

Acht Patienten mit Spannungskopfschmerzen erhielten 10 Sitzungen ILF-Neurofeedback und 10 Sitzungen Schein-Neurofeedback in zufälliger Reihenfolge. Die Intervention wurde zusätzlich zu einer psychotherapeutischen Basisintervention durchgeführt. Ergebnisse der Studie zeigen, dass im Vergleich zur Scheinbehandlung, die Häufigkeit der Kopfschmerzen nach Behandlung mit ILF Neurofeedback, deutlich geringer war.

Memory improvement through neurofeedback

This blog post is about... um... oh… let me think... yeah! Memory and forgetting. We all have been in such situations: forgetting the appointment at the dentist, having to search for our car in the parking lot and not remembering birthdays. In this blog post, we explain why we forget things and how neurofeedback can improve memory. We are also discussing a study by the Saarland University in which the memory of test subjects could be improved in the long term through neurofeedback training.

Study proves: just one session with ILF Neurofeedback results in significant changes in brain connectivity!

For the first time a randomized, controlled study has shown effects of Infra Low Frequency Neurofeedback (ILF Neurofeedback for short and also known as the Othmer method), on connectivity and brain activity - and this after only a single session. The study by Dobrushina et al. entitled "Modulation of Intrinsic Brain Connectivity by Implicit Electroencephalographic Neurofeedback" thus makes an important contribution to a better understanding of the mechanisms and processes of ILF Neurofeedback. “This confirms what we see in daily practice and what patients telling us: that ILF Neurofeedback has effects even after only one session,” says Dr. Bernhard Wandernoth, Founder of BEE Medic GmbH.
