Neurofeedback is an effective and evidence-based therapy method for the treatment of various mental illnesses. Neurofeedback devices for home use are increasingly available on the market. And we are also receiving more and more enquiries from private individuals.

Home-use neurofeedback equipment
BEE Medic is a leading manufacturer of neurofeedback equipment specifically designed for use in clinical and therapeutic environments. Our devices are certified to strict medical standards and undergo extensive quality assurance processes to ensure the highest levels of accuracy and safety.

However, devices sold for home use by individuals often do not achieve the diagnostic and therapeutic precision of professional systems. In addition, they are often not certified to medical standards. For effective and safe neurofeedback, we advise against non-certified home equipment.

Self application of neurofeedback
In addition, the use of neurofeedback should be in the hands of a healthcare professional - a doctor or therapist who has received appropriate training. Neurofeedback is a treatment that requires complex clinical decision-making and excellent clinical skills to be effective, so it is essential that neurofeedback is only administered by mental health professionals. A comprehensive training programme is required to ensure that practitioners are prepared to provide neurofeedback services.

Neurofeedback is a treatment that is largely free of side effects. In rare cases, however, side effects such as headaches, nausea or palpitations can occur. This is known as maladaptation. The effects are usually very short-lived and are controlled by the therapy - unless the incorrect exercise is continued for a longer period of time. Inappropriate training can make symptoms worse rather than better. Therefore, treatment should only be carried out by appropriately trained neurofeedback professionals who can adjust training protocols in the event of side effects.

Our approach: Professional neurofeedback equipment with therapeutic support 
To ensure safe and effective neurofeedback treatment, we strongly advise against the use of uncertified home-use equipment and recommend therapy with a trained provider.

Meet Dr. Andrea Durand & Durand Healing and Wellness Center in Phoenix, AZ!

For Dr. Andrea Durand, DBH, LCSW, integrating neurofeedback was a natural step in her mission to provide comprehensive mental health care. With a strong background in behavioral health and trauma-focused therapy, she sought training with EEG Info and introduced neurofeedback into her practice last year. Since then, she has witnessed remarkable transformations in her patients.

“I have seen some incredible progress in my patients while using ILF and NeuroAmp II,” she shares. Many have experienced improved sleep, enhanced focus, better memory, and overall well-being. She has also observed patients reducing or even discontinuing certain medications as their symptoms improve.

The integration of neurofeedback was both exciting and challenging, but with the support from BEE Medic and EEG Info, the process became much smoother. From the start, she had access to valuable resources and guidance at every step of the way. “Gary from BEE Medic was always quick to respond and answer any questions I had.”

Clients have been enjoying neurofeedback sessions, and as interest grew, Dr. Durand added a second NeuroAmp II in less than a year. One feature clients especially appreciate is the Advanced Browser, with Dr. Durand noting, "Patients love being able to watch their favorite show while improving their health at the same time."

We love seeing practices like hers thrive and make a difference in their communities—thank you for sharing your story!
