Why is the QEEG (Brain Map) so valuable?
Often times one or more symptoms of a problem will be evident (such as ADD or ADHD); however, other problems may exist—such as auditory or visual processing problems, reading problems, anxiety, or depression. The QEEG (Brain Map) can identify such problems. The training can then address all of the problems during the course of the treatment. It must be noted, that many times problems masquerade as ADD, but other problems exist, which are just as significant, and need to be addressed. Q: Why don’t all practitioners use QEEG-guided neurotherapy? A: The treatment is relatively new and is the state of the art treatment for many problems. Most practitioners have not been trained in EEG, QEEG, and neurotherapy. A significant amount of hands-on experience is necessary to learn how to do it. It is technologically intensive, and the equipment is expensive. Some practitioners use neurofeedback that is not QEEG-guided; however, the results are usually not as successful as those guided by the QEEG
