We are proud to announce another neurofeedback seminar in Germany. The course is extended to five days to allow for more practicum! German and English courses are held parallel in separate rooms.
Five-Day Clinical Course on Neurofeedback
A comprehensive introduction to the technical background and clinical application of Neurofeedback. This course includes lectures, demonstration, discussion and hands-on practical experience. You work in groups of two on our own neurofeedback systems that are approved as medical device. You will acquire the knowledge and experience to begin working with this exciting technique for improving self-regulation and enhancing brain function. After attending this course you will be able to immediately implement neurofeedback in your practice.
Course Description
An intensive hands-on introduction to the clinical practice of Neurofeedback where you will:
- Learn about the technical basics of the functionality of Neurofeedback systems and of EEG signal processing.
- Learn mechanisms of neurophysiologic self-regulation and how specific patterns of disregulation lead to physical, emotional and behavioural symptoms.
- Gain experience with Neurofeedback instrumentation that exercises the brains mechanisms of self-regulation and improves brain function.
- Learn about assessment tools that allow new insight into your patient’s symptoms and guide Neurofeedback training.
- Gain knowledge and skills that will allow you to incorporate Neurofeedback into your clinical practice.
- Begin empowering your patients to function better and increase their ability to benefit from other therapies.
Upon completion of the course you will be able to:
- Describe the EEG training process.
- Use Neurofeedback instrumentation at a basic level.
- Assess new clients for viability of Neurofeedback training.
- Describe Neurofeedback protocols for clinical and peak-performance applications.
- Assess progress and completion of training.
