The use of EEG biofeedback to improve memory, concentration, attention and reduce emotional tension
Biofeedback is a method of giving patients computerised feedback signals about changes in the physiological state of their body. This allows them to learn how to consciously modify functions not controlled consciously. This method allows active and conscious involvement of the patient in controlling...
