Traditionally, individuals who have experienced a stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI) more than two years ago have had limited formal rehabilitation options available to them. Additionally, minimal progress was expected beyond the initial window following such injuries.
However, neurofeedback therapy offers hope for significant improvements beyond this timeframe. It has emerged as a promising modality for addressing the brain’s ability to repair itself, even years after experiencing a stroke or traumatic brain injury (TBI).
Dysregulated brainwaves are closely linked to both stroke and traumatic brain injury (TBI). Both conditions can result in disrupted brainwave patterns due to damage to the brain’s structure and function.
After a stroke or TBI, individuals may experience abnormal brainwave activity, such as increased theta or delta waves and reduced alpha or beta waves. These dysregulated brainwave patterns can contribute to a range of cognitive, emotional, and physical impairments commonly observed in stroke and TBI survivors.
BrainCore Therapy neurofeedback training at Balance Atlanta seeks to reorganize and enhance neural circuits involved in motor function, speech, cognition, and other essential functions. This individualized approach, guided by qEEG brain mapping, holds promise for facilitating recovery and restoring lost tasks in individuals with stroke or TBI, offering new possibilities for rehabilitation and improved quality of life.
Neurofeedback therapy holds promise in addressing symptoms associated with traumatic brain injury (TBI) by targeting the underlying brain mechanisms that regulate these issues. In the context of stroke and TBI recovery, neurofeedback training can be particularly beneficial for improving speech-related impairments.
Some familiar repercussions of stroke and TBI that can be helped are:
By focusing on the specific brain regions involved in speech production and comprehension, neurofeedback aims to strengthen and enhance these areas, potentially facilitating the rehabilitation of damaged speech circuits. Dr. Caroline’s approach using BrainCore Therapy Neurofeedback goes beyond mere compensation for dysfunction, offering the possibility of genuine improvement and recovery in individuals recovering from stroke and TBI.
