Hi,

Is there anyone who have tried neurofeedback or have information on that treatment (including the different approach/systems of neurofeedbacks).

Like always, a warm thank in advance!

Hello Paix. I've never tried it nor do I know anyone who has tried it. The internet reviews are long on specific repeat articles and short on long term double blind studies. That doesn't mean that it's bad, just that it hasn't been proven. Also there is some worry about how long it may last.

I'm guessing here, but from what I've read over the yrs (it's not new) is that some of the success rate depends on the doctor doing the work (just like ECT's) . I know it's expensive as all heck. Below are a couple of articles from a reputable source and one from a so so source. I only include the so so source as it does a good job of high lighting the possible side effects. Take Care. paul m
