EEG biofeedback-studies: Learning Disabilities Case Study
EEG Biofeedback (also known as neurofeedback) is gradually becoming known and recognized for its utility in remediating Attention Deficit Disorder. Less well known is its emerging application to specific learning disabilities. This is surprising for several reasons. First of all, more children are affected by specific learning disabilities than are diagnosed with ADHD, so EEG biofeedback could potentially have a much larger impact there. Secondly, there is no claim that stimulant or anti-depressant medication is terribly helpful with learning disabilities, so that EEG biofeedback does not challenge and compete with an already accepted treatment.
