Treatment

Neurofeedback - also called EEG-Biofeedback - is a scientifically proven brain training to improve certain functions of the brain. Patients learn to change their brain waves to enhance certain skills, such as concentration, memory, top performance, creativity, relaxation, etc. Since more than 15 years the German Neuroscience Center is the leading clinic for Neurology, Psychiatry and Psychology in the UAE. We are offering the highest quality Neurofeedback treatment with the leading Neurofeedback experts in the region.

Which Disorders Are Treated With Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback is a painless and non-invasive procedure that has been used for a variety of diseases for over 30 years.

• ADHD, ADD - Attention Deficit (Hyperactivity) Disorders (Evidence base level 5)
• Epilepsy (Evidence base level 5)
• Learning disabilities
• Autism and Asperger Syndrome
• Depression
• Anxiety and panic disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, obsessive compulsive disorders, sleep disorders, chronic fatigue syndrome, traumatic brain injuries, fibromyalgia and chronic pain syndromes, migraines, autism, dementia, tic disorders as Tourette Syndrome, Parkinson Disease, Lyme disease and can be treated as well.

Neurofeedback is a new treatment option for the above-mentioned disorders to achieve rapid and permanent changes in the areas of cognition, behavioral problems, affective regulation, and social adaptation and function.

What Does A Neurofeedback Session Look Like?

The patient is sitting relaxed in front of a screen. The activity of the brain waves is recorded by means of sensors (EEG recording) and displayed graphically by a computer program. The patient is given various tasks in order to change the brain waves. The brain receives information about its activity and learns to optimize it by means of feedback that is perceived via images, videos, sound etc.

How Does Neurofeedback Work?

The patient's brain waves are recorded using an EEG. A special computer program divides the brain waves into frequency ranges and analysis them. Depending on the clinical picture, certain pathological patterns of brain activity are recognized, and the patient is given appropriate feedback. There are many different forms of feedback such as films, tones, games, etc. The patient should learn to encourage certain activities or suppress others. The patient uses this to train his brain until the desired pattern occurs and the symptoms are improved.

The feedback is based on the principle of so-called operant conditioning. This means: The feedback given to the patient is a reward if the patient succeeds in activating certain areas of the brain in such a way that they generate the desired brain activity. Our brain wants to be rewarded as often as possible. It tries to permanently recognize and understand the patterns hidden in the feedback in order to receive a reward as often as possible. This process happens completely unconsciously, without active intervention by the patient and without medication.

What Are Brain Waves?

In a raw EEG brain activity is divided by frequencies: GAMMA greater than 30(Hz) BETA (13-30Hz), ALPHA (8-12 Hz), THETA (4-8 Hz), and DELTA (less than 4 Hz). Faster waves are needed to complete a complex task, slower waves are seen when relaxing or sleeping. However, brain waves always appear as a mix. Imbalances can cause disorders such as being nervous or anxious when too many fast waves are seen in the EEG.

WHAT IS AN EEG (Electroencephalogram) / QEEG (Quantitative EEG, Brain mapping)?

An EEG is a scientific method for recording brain waves as described above. The brain waves are reordered via surface electrodes placed on the scalp. The locations of the electrodes are defined by the 10-20 system. The graphic visualization over time is called a raw EEG. It is the standard way to see multipole brain pathologies including seizures / epilepsy.

In a quantitative EEG the analysis process is extended by selecting and editing the best episodes of the raw EEG and comparing them to a database.

It is best practice to perform a qEEG before starting the actual Neurofeedback training. The qEEG visualizes the activity of the brain in different locations. These findings are matched with the client complaints (EEG biomarker match, QEEG Pro). Apart from reviewing the raw EEG data, the raw data – according to age, gender and handedness is getting compared to a normative database (Neuroguide, Dr. B. Thatcher - FDA approved database of adults and children). This scientific method produces comprehensive information about the distribution of brain activity, like a prism breaking light up into its constituent spectral colors. This is called a bitmap. Moreover, a LORETA will be performed (Low Resolution Electromagnetic Tomographic analysis) which produces 3 dimensional images to find functional abnormalities in the deeper structures of the brain - similar to functional magnetic resonance (fMRI) of the brain. On top of this, a clinical Q analysis (Dr. Paul Swingel) will be performed to compare amplitudes and ratios of brain activity.

What Does Neurofeedback Feel Like?

You will feel an electro cap on your head, soft as you wear a bathing cap when going swimming. You sit in a comfortable chair which is adjusted towards your needs, to ensure that you feel comfortable and relaxed. The electro cap is connected to an amplifier that forwards the recorded signals to a computer who translates them. You will look onto a second monitor where your translated brainwaves will drive a game or a movie in real-time. Now the subconscious learning process starts as your brain figures out fast what it has to do to score in a game or to drive the movie (operant conditioning). Soon you will feel the difference as well, as brain fog disappears, you feel more concentrated, maybe as well a bit happier as when you came. You will see that your abilities either in competing or speed are increasing. The medical professional will sit direct next to you guaranteeing that the whole training starting from recoding sites of your head, collection of data, translation and rewarding of desirable brain activity is done at the highest professional standard. There is absolutely nothing to be concerned about or worried about.

Is Neurofeedback Effective And Scientifically Proven?

Neurofeedback is efficient for most clients with perceptible results. Neurofeedback training is a learning process; therefore, results are seen gradually over time. In about ten sessions you will already feel an improvement of your complaints. Most patients meet their treatment goals in 20 sessions, depending on their condition. Each session lasts approximately 60 minutes, which includes the hook-up, training homework assignments and discussion of session-to-session progress.

Neurofeedback is FDA approved, and meets the highest criteria for evidence-based neurofeedback practice. It has been cross validated by both PET and MRI, is used by Universities, Medical Centers, the US military, Research Institutes, etc. The hardware and software used for Neurofeedback in our Medical Center was designed and developed by one of the world leaders in brain research and neurofeedback.

Is Neurofeedback Safe?

Neurofeedback is non-invasive and painless. No medication is administered. Therefore, Neurofeedback is known to be very safe. No severe side effects are reported in over 30 years of application. Neurofeedback is FDA approved for safety and efficiency.

Can Children Do Neurofeedback?

Yes, Neurofeedback is safe and efficient for kids from 6 years onwards. Moreover, adolescents and adults of all age groups are treated with Neurofeedback.

How Many Neurofeedback Sessions Are Needed?

The number of sessions depends on the severity of symptoms and disorder. Each patient receives a customized treatment plan based on the individual case. As a first step, the patient will be thoroughly examined including a comprehensive anamnesis incl. present and past medical history, family history, current medication, physical and psychopathological examination. In a next step a qEEG will be performed. Based on the findings the treatment plan will we discussed with the patient. Usually the brain needs 20-40 training sessions to learn the new pattern> Depending on the performance of the individual it can me less or more sessions.

Transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation therapy is a FDA approved, commonly used method in up-to-date pain management. It’s used for many forms of acute and chronic pain. Two electrodes are place on the skin and connected to a unit. The unit generates electricity and passes it truth the electrode in the affected area of the body. There are different theories how TENS works. Some suggest that the electricity inhibits interneurons, nerve cells transmitting pain sensations. Others suggest that it has a similar effect as acupuncture. Moreover it is discussed that TENS triggers the release of opiates and thus reducing the pain. By controlling the electrical pulse rate, pulse width, pulse wave the specific pain nerves are targeted. The intensity depends on the patient it should be strong but not painful itself.

By breaking the vicious circle – pain – muscle spasm – impaired movement and posture – pain – TENS reliefs the most common forms of pain. It is easy to apply and shows fast results.

Talent identification and talent optimization are important topics in the world of sports, music and business. It has been proven that practice leads to better accomplishments and that, due to practice otherwise known as deliberate practice, actual changes occur in the brain. This fact has become known as the ’10 year rule’: training or practicing during the course of a period of 10 years cause a significant improvement in accomplishments and with that also changes in brain tissue. However, if all team members live and train in the same context i.e. each following the same amount of training time as well as the same eating pattern and each spend equal amounts of time sleeping, how is it possible that one member achieves a higher level of performance than the other?

How it possible is that one member achieves a higher level of performance than the other?

Talent is the explanation for why some achieve more than others (under the same learning conditions). Top-talents present with an extraordinarily high standard of cognitive skills, primarily in the areas of visual information processing speed and working-memory. Aside from these cognitive skills, the motivational profile of these top-talents is of equal importance. They have certain personality traits at their disposal which enable excellent achievements. In combining excellent cognitive skills with a specific motivational profile, the chances of success are increased.

How to identify talent?

Identifying and optimizing top-talent is a unique process in which clinical neuropsychology seems to be gaining a role of ever increasing importance.

To belong to the best in the world and to be able to compete with them, several ingredients can be extracted from the nature-nurture discussion which seem essential in predicting success. Although many hours of specific training focused on changing brain tissue are necessary to achieve a certain skill, it seems that intellectual, cognitive and congenital characteristics play an equally important part. Neuropsychological research demonstrates this point, using cognitive tests, questionnaires and semi-structured interviews. When people with certain skills (talent) are selected, a training programme should be carried out which will support optimal development of brain tissue, which in turn will optimize the functionality of the skill system being trained. With this in mind one should base ones conclusions on the principles of scientific literature on learning. A clinical talent identification and talent optimization neuropsychologist can be deployed when identifying and optimizing talent as well as composing a specific team culture and aligning different characters to form the most desirable combination for a top-class team.

How to optimize talent?

We used the above mentioned theoretical knowledge in West-Europe and they proved to be very effective. Since recently, these concepts are also implemented in the UAE:

• Various sports teams in West-Europe: soccer first teams and youth teams (Chelsea, Swansea, ADO Den Haag, PEC Zwolle, AZ Alkmaar, Anderlecht / Brussels), Dutch Olympic swimming team, Dutch Olympic basketball team, Swiss professional ice hockey team, Dutch professional ice skating team, international MMA / boxing competitors, BMX, golf and tennis): talent identification and optimisation on both individual and team level. After implementing the techniques, the players performed better at individual level and the teams ranked significantly higher.

• Various gifted talents in music: piano (Imola Music School) and harp: talent identification. The neuropsychological measurements turned out to have predictive value and identified who would reach world class level.

• Various high level business: engineering, education, law enforcement, etc.: talent identification and optimization. We were hired to identify the individuals with high potential and restructure their organizations to optimize the functioning on both individual and team level.

Benefits of Marriage Counseling in Dubai

One of the key benefits of couple and marriage Counseling is that it is completely confidential. This means that you can discuss your problems and feelings freely and openly, without fear of judgment or criticism. This is especially important for couples who may be dealing with sensitive or difficult issues, such as infidelity or abuse.

Another important benefit of couples therapy is that it can help couples to learn new communication and problem-solving skills. Many couples find that they have difficulty expressing their feelings or understanding each other's perspectives, and the therapy can help them to develop more effective ways of communicating.

This can include learning how to listen actively, how to express feelings in a healthy way, and how to compromise and negotiate when there is a disagreement.

Couple Counseling can also help couples to identify and address the underlying issues that may be causing problems in their relationship. For example, if a couple is struggling with financial stress, a therapist may help them to identify the root cause of the problem and develop a plan to address it.

Similarly, if a couple is experiencing infidelity, a therapist may help them to understand why it happened and how to prevent it from happening again in the future.

For couples who are dealing with more serious problems, such as abuse or addiction, Couples therapy can provide a safe and supportive environment to help them work through these issues.

A therapist can help couples to understand the dynamics of the abuse and how to stay safe, as well as how to work through the trauma and develop a plan to move forward.

Is Marriage Counseling Right For You?

It is important to note that marriage Counseling is not just for couples who are experiencing problems or conflicts. It is also beneficial for couples who want to improve their relationship and strengthen their bond. Regular relationship Counseling sessions can help couples to prevent problems from developing and ensure that they are on the same page when it comes to their goals, values, and expectations.

It can also be helpful for couples who are going through major life changes, such as having a baby, buying a house, or dealing with the loss of a loved one. These changes can put a lot of stress on a relationship and a couples counselor can help navigate through these difficult times.

Alternative Approaches in Dubai

In addition to traditional Relationship Counseling, there are also a number of alternative approaches in Dubai. For example, some therapists may use mindfulness or meditation techniques to help couples develop greater awareness of their thoughts and feelings. Others may use art or music therapy to help couples express themselves in new ways.

Finding the Right Therapist

Ultimately, the key to a successful couples therapy in Dubai is finding the right therapist for you and your partner. A good therapist will be someone who is experienced, compassionate, and non-judgmental, and who is able to help you work through your problems in a way that feels comfortable and supportive.

If you are considering therapy for your relationship, it is important to do your research and find a therapist who is well-suited to your needs. You can start by asking friends or family members for recommendations, or by looking online for reviews and ratings of different therapists in your area.

Dr. Letizia Cardelli – Marriage Counselor in Dubai

Dr. Letizia is an Italian Board Certified Psychologist and specialized in systemic marriage and couple counselling. Systemic marriage and couple counselling is a type of therapy that focuses on the relationship dynamics between partners, rather than individual problems. The therapist aims to help couples understand how they interact with each other and how their behavior affects the relationship. By exploring these patterns of behavior and communication, the couple can gain insight into what needs to change for their relationship to thrive.

One of the key benefits of systemic marriage and couple counselling is that it can help couples to resolve conflicts in a safe and supportive environment. Through the guidance of the therapist, couples can learn new ways of communicating and find effective solutions to their problems. This can lead to a stronger, more stable relationship and a more fulfilling life for both partners.

Another benefit of systemic marriage and couple counselling is that it can help to prevent the breakdown of relationships. By addressing problems early on, couples can avoid the negative impact that can come from unresolved conflicts and misunderstandings. This can help to preserve the love and commitment that brought the couple together in the first place.

The German Neuroscience Center is hosting free support groups for teenagers in the UAE. The format is designed to provide a confidential environment for teens between 12 and 18 years old to discuss and to learn how to deal with issues of life, stress in school or at home, negative feelings, frustration, issues of self-esteem and other challenges.

Largest cause of the burden of disease among young people

The World Health Organization (WHO) cites mental health problems - in particular depression - as the largest cause of the burden of disease among young people. According to statistics shared by Young Minds in the United Kingdom:

• 1 in 10 children and young people aged 5 to 16 suffer from a diagnosable mental health disorder.

• The number of young people aged 15 to 16 with depression nearly doubled between the 1980s and the 2000s.

• Nearly 80,000 children and young people suffer from severe depression.

• More than half of all adults with mental health problems were diagnosed in childhood.

The meetings will be led by American Board certified psychologist Fadwa L. Lkorchy, from German Neuroscience Center, who believes that both children and parents are in need of more help to cope with common issues facing families. She explains:

‘’teen mental health is a huge concern, especially as incidences of depression, self-harm and suicide are all on the increase amongst adolescents."

"Whilst teens face similar issues all over the world, such as academic pressure, bullying, sexuality and online safety, they are exacerbated in a place like the UAE where a mix of cultural values can make it even harder to establish an identity and achieve a sense of freedom.’’

She adds: ‘’It is vital to tackle these problems early on and equip children with the necessary coping mechanisms to help them deal with pressure, in order to minimise problems like depression later on. Many parents have told us they want their teens to have somewhere to go for the kind of impartial help and advice they cannot get at home.’’
