Insomnia
I was able to resotre my sleep patterns only after 12 sessions of neurofeedback in June of last year (2008) and I am still sleeping well. My anxiety attacks are gone too. (Insomnia, Mrs S)
I had insomnia for 3 years prior to starting neurofeedback. For all that time, I had trouble falling asleep at night and I woke early almost every morning.
Prior to my treatment, I had tried to attend a sleep clinic and my sleep improved somewhat but was still very poor. I had also tried melatonin, breathing techniques, warm milk and the typical recommended restrictions such as caffeine and alcohol at night but nothing seemed to help.
Within a few neurofeedback sessions, I began to feel less anxious about falling asleep at night and my mood improved. I also began to go back to sleep much quicker after waking early.
After a few more session, I began to fall asleep far more easily, I stopped being crabby in the mornings and I was brighter and happier during the day. It did take about 30 sessions for me to sleep just as well as I used to and another 10 sessions to make sure it stuck but was it ever worth it!
There’s nothing like sleeping properly!

I was a skeptic. Yet, I couldn’t sleep without pills and was living my life in an anxious fog. One year after treatment, I have no trouble sleeping. I am focused, calm, and efficient in all aspects of my life. I’ve even lost 25 pounds! “Braintraining” turned my life around.”

I had a hard time falling asleep before the Neurofeedback sessions. I felt as if my brain was re-living the day’s events and playing over each stressful work situation. There is one particularly difficult problem in my life right now that used to torment me nightly. It took only a few sessions for me to learn to relax and let go. I can now shut off this running commentary where before it seemed to control me. Now I am off my sleeping medication feel more refreshed in the morning. I rarely have to use the meds to fall asleep any more.
