Neurofeedback is suitable for individuals aged 5 and up seeking improvements in anxiety, focus, memory, mood, performance, pain, or sleep. While we don’t treat clients with active brain tumors, please inform us if you have tinnitus.
Yes, we treat children as young as five, offering neurofeedback sessions tailored to kids and adolescents.
Our neurofeedback therapy can support those dealing with:
Sessions are scheduled for 30 minutes, but the active neurofeedback treatment itself takes only seconds to a few minutes. This is ideal for individuals with focus challenges, as no sustained attention is required.
Just relax and stay seated. The active treatment lasts only a few seconds to a couple of minutes.
Neurofeedback is safe and non-invasive. It’s a painless, relaxing experience, and you won’t feel the treatment itself.
Temporary effects, lasting 24-48 hours, may include feeling “wired” (energized, difficulty sleeping) or “tired” (lethargy, increased sleep). Some people experience mild headaches or dizziness, but these effects typically resolve quickly as your brain adjusts.
Yes, neurofeedback is a gentle, non-invasive therapy with no known long-term side effects.
Many clients notice changes within the first few sessions, while more lasting improvements generally require 10-20 sessions.
Over 85% of clients see significant benefits, particularly those feeling “stuck” in unhelpful patterns. Neurofeedback strengthens healthy brainwave activity, similar to building a muscle.
Yes. Neurofeedback creates lasting neural pathways. If results fade soon after finishing treatment, a few additional sessions may help reinforce the new patterns.
According to Frank Duffy, MD (Harvard Neurologist), “EEG biofeedback therapy should play a major therapeutic role in many difficult areas.” See our [Research Section] for further studies on neurofeedback.
Superbill provided for partial reimbursement with out-of-network benefits
Neurofeedback is generally not covered by insurance. However, we provide a superbill for the initial visit, which may be reimbursable for clients with out-of-network benefits.
Yes, neurofeedback can be effective even if you’re taking medications. Over time, neurofeedback may reduce your need for certain medications, so consult with your prescribing doctor for any necessary adjustments.
No, a referral is not required to begin treatment.
No, our neurofeedback system maps your brain’s activity as treatment progresses, allowing us to create a personalized plan based on your responses.
Traditional neurofeedback requires focused attention and daily practice across 40+ sessions, each lasting 30-60 minutes. In contrast, our approach is more efficient and accessible, with passive sessions lasting just seconds to a few minutes and no need for at-home practice. Typically, 10-20 sessions are enough to see lasting results, making it ideal for those with busy schedules or focus challenges, like children or individuals with attention difficulties.
While both neurofeedback and biofeedback support self-regulation, they target different physiological responses:
In short, biofeedback targets broader bodily functions and requires active engagement, while neurofeedback focuses on brainwave activity, offering a passive, time-efficient approach to brain health.
Naturopathic doctors diagnose and treat health issues by supporting the body’s natural self-healing processes, addressing root causes rather than just symptoms, and developing personalized treatment plans.
No, NeuroLogic Seattle specializes in adjunctive therapies. We recommend maintaining a separate primary care physician for comprehensive health care.
