Your reliable partner in neurofeedback

Our Claim: Reliable & Effective Neurofeedback

BEE Medic is a global supplier of medical equipment and accessories for all mental health specialists. We provide cutting-edge EEG equipment for therapy, diagnostics & research to licensed mental health care providers. Our team of engineers, clinicians, and researchers work hand-in-hand to develop these neurofeedback solutions for day-to-day patient treatment. The modular design of our equipment and software helps you acquire only what you need and allows you to expand at any time.

At BEE Medic, we offer you the right solution from entry into neurofeedback in your own medical practice, to high-end systems for clinical research. We take special care to ensure that you can count on quality, innovative, and reliable systems for all your neurofeedback needs. Our primary goal is to provide our customers with optimal support for their work in order to achieve the best possible treatment results. We offer expert technical support as well as connect you with a network of neurofeedback educators who offer clinically supervised provider training.

What BEE Medic Represents

In addition to products for EEG-based technologies for neurofeedback and ERP/EEG diagnostics, BEE Medic offers practical neurofeedback courses in cooperation with training institutes worldwide for professional users working in the medical and therapeutic fields who want to learn modern, effective neurofeedback.

Our training partners teach neurofeedback with enthusiasm and are constantly developing our concepts. The instructors are practitioners who use neurofeedback themselves on a daily basis in their own clinics and practices. The courses listed on this website focus on self-experience with a high proportion of practical training in order to learn symptom-based work. A therapeutic, medical background is required for this because we see it as an important task and part of our responsibility to give effective neurofeedback only into the hands of professional users.

1972

Publication of Barry Sterman's work on the successful treatment of epilepsy using neurofeedback.

1985

First clinical and scientific examination by Sue and Siegfried Othmer of Barry Sterman's SMR Beta Protocols and at that time still analogue Neurofeedback system. Impressed by the positive effects in the treatment of epilepsy and the behavioural problems of one of their sons, both soon set themselves the goal of making Neurofeedback accessible to more people and developing a modern, computer-based Neurofeedback system.

1988

Sue and Siegfried Othmer found the company EEG Spectrum in California with the focus on developing Neurofeedback software for clinical applications. Initially, the focus was on further optimization of the SMR Beta Neurofeedback protocols.

1990er Jahre

First Neurofeedback course for professionals 1990 in San Francisco continues to focus on SMR Beta Neurofeedback.

The 1990s are also marked by the desire to continually improve the effectiveness of Neurofeedback:

targeted research into the reward frequency of SMR and beta and sorting of symptoms according to high and low excitation categories
First investigations with different electrode positions and focus on bipolar Neurofeedback
Discovery of the relationship between placement and preferred reward frequency and development of the concept of hemispheric balance
Further optimization of the C3- beta/C4-SMR treatment protocol, in the application of which several thousand users have now been trained
Beginning of the development of effective alpha-theta protocols, especially in the treatment of trauma and PTSD

These further developments, especially the parameters of the SMR-Beta protocol, were trend-setting for the whole spectrum of today's Neurofeedback methods - also for theta-beta training - and are mainly due to the work of Sue and Siegfried Othmer.

The theoretical investigations and the empirical clinical work also confirm the considerations on training networks by means of coherence or connectivity training, which was implemented and investigated by means of bipolar derivations.

1998

Until the end of the 1990s increasing individualisation of training frequencies and systematic development of further treatment protocols. This quickly led to greater effectiveness of Neurofeedback and expansion of the clinical spectrum of its application.

Furthermore, interhemispheric placements in neurofeedback training and increasingly low training frequencies were systematically investigated.

2001

Viewing the brain as a self-organizing dynamic system allows for the first time a more plausible explanation of the clinically observed effects of Neurofeedback.

2003

Kurt Othmer founds EEG Info, Inc. in the USA to further develop the strategy founded with EEG Spectrum as well as the EEG Institute as a platform for the clinical empirical investigation of protocols on a larger scale.

2004

In Switzerland, BEE Systems takes over the responsibility for the development, approval and production of devices and software from Dr.-Ing. Bernhard Wandernoth. The further development and optimization of the neurofeedback protocols will thus take place in even shorter innovation cycles.

2006

The protocol guide is published in its 1st edition. The NeuroAmp® EEG amplifier and Cygnet® Neurofeedback software are approved as medical devices in the USA and Europe to establish Neurofeedback more and more in the medical community

First clinical indications of the advantageous use of slow cortical potentials and start of further investigations in this regard.

2007

First software and protocol release with slow cortical potentials, and start of ILF (infra low frequency) neurofeedback. Parallel to this

Alpha-Theta Protocols included in the standard repertoire and teaching.

2008

The brand EEG Info Europe is being launched to offer courses in more and more European countries in the local language.

The 2nd edition of the protocol guide is now also published in German, Spanish and French.

2011

Courses all over Europe and several national languages.
First indication-specific courses take place in Germany.

2015

Alpha- and Gamma Synchrony Training achieve practical applicability and are integrated into the course offerings. The protocol guide is published in the 5th edition.

2016

Neurofeedback mit Virtueller Realität.

2018

Synchronic training in the ILF area.

2019

The protocol guide is published in the 7th edition.

2020

The course and certification concept continues to develop. Courses are now offered in 15 countries. The treatment protocols taught in the courses under the EEG Info Europa brand are the result of well over one hundred thousand neurofeedback sessions of empirical optimization.

Our locations

BEE Medic is represented in Switzerland, Germany, the United Kingdom (UK) and the United States. We offer our neurofeedback courses in these countries ourselves or through training partners. Through our online courses we offer everyone the opportunity to take our courses flexibly worldwide. We also work with accredited partners worldwide who offer neurofeedback courses in many countries and different languages.
