The usage of Neurofeedback to treat a host of learning disabilities, as well as chronic problems, in Singapore is relatively new and news.
Neurofeedback was started in the US way back in the 60s and 70s under terms such as biofeedback or brain waves control. According to Jim Robbins, an investigative reporter and author of A Symphony In The Brain, he found that "the technique had been spawned by solid laboratory research on epilepsy ..." Yet as he studied this highly effective treatment method, he was also wondering why he had not heard of it or that more people were talking about it.
So as Jim Robbins said he "decided to tell the story of brain wave biofeedback" because now to him "the big question about neurofeedback is no longer whether it works. The questions are why it is as effective as it is, for whom, precisely, and how it can be made more powerful."
For us at BEC, after treating more than 500 children suffering from autism, and seeing their improvements for themselves and for their family, it has become our mission to get more people informed, more people treated and more people to understand the marvels, and limits of this great instrument.
In order to achieve the most benefits from this Talk, we suggest that you could do some research before attending. This way you can have your doubts and questions answered during the session.
For research, please Google the word " Neurofeedback ", as well as watch the videos on YouTube. We are most confident that once you know about Neurofeedback and its effectiveness, you will want to be involved, to use it and to recommend your family and friends to use it.
We look forward to seeing you.
