Micro Current Neurofeedback

Application of Micro Current Neurofeedback

While seated, five lightweight EEG electrodes will be placed at different areas on your head and neck. The areas will first be cleaned, then a conductive paste will be applied to hold the electrodes in place. The position of the electrodes may vary through the treatment and in subsequent treatments.

Time of Session & Protocols

The entire ‘brain training’ from start to finish takes approximately 45 minutes. The level of electricity from the FDA Registered IASIS device is 1/100 of a AA battery over 1/100 of a second; people report not feeling anything from the electrodes. There are different protocol settings and numerous sensitivity levels that may be selected. A protocol will be determined based on how fragile or hardy one’s nervous system is as well as how one responds during or after the session, at which time adjustments may be made.

Response to MCN Session

The most reported responses are mental clarity, a sense of calmness, clearer vision and senses, and more restorative sleep. In the first few sessions, about 1 in 20-25 (~5%) individuals experience temporary fatigue, lightheadedness, or a feeling of being “revved up.” These symptoms are temporary and typically last only a few minutes to a few hours. Neuroregulation is a positive sign that your brain and nervous system are responding. This will be followed by improvement such as return of energy during the day, restful sleep at night, a sense of humor, motivation to get things done, ease in completing tasks, memory and recall, ability to read and listen with little or no distraction, and the absence of depression, irritability, impatience, and explosiveness.

24-Hour Post Evaluation

A 24-Hour Post Evaluation will be sent after every session and the information entered helps us fine tune the treatment to ‘dial in’ what will be optimal for you. It is not always possible to predict how an individual will respond to treatment. Your nervous system responding is viewed as a sign that positive change is happening. Like all therapeutic treatments, IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback is a process. Try to be patient with the journey. Suspend any disbelief and give yourself permission to allow yourself to simply observe any minute changes.

Ongoing MCN Sessions

As you improve and are able to further sustain positive change, we will increase the time between treatments until they become enduringly sustainable and you no longer need treatment. Initially, you may have 1-5 treatments per week, depending on the level of seriousness or acuity of your condition. The total number of treatments will vary from person to person, but a typical range would be 10 to 20 treatments, with recommendations for more being common with more fixed, longer standing conditions. Some people will notice changes in between 1-3 sessions while others may require more treatments before they notice a change.

Often times, clients will ask if they may go off their medication when they observe how positive they feel, and we refer them back to their physicians for guidance. IASIS MCN does not heal or cure any illness, disease, or condition and individuals who are currently on medication should not stop their medication without the direction of their physician.
