No, Stacy is currently using EEG neurofeedback sessions on a Brainmaster system under the care of a trained clinician. She has previously used EEG neurofeedback on the NeuroCare Pro system (first time, excellent results) and Ochs' LENS system (second time, didn't get to finish with it, results indeterminate).

Home based neurofeedback systems like PlayAttention do not process all of the major brainwave spectrums (alpha, beta, theta, delta, gamma). They can still be helpful I think, but to overcome the type of dysfunction associated with seizures, I think you really need a commercial system and the assistance of a competent practitioner.

The JtWD system (and Heartmath) are biofeedback systems measuring biometric data like heartrate, not neurofeedback systems measuring EEG information.

We recently had a bunch of new neurofeedback practitioners agree to offer CWE members discounts for service. See post #12 for the list of all participating practitioners.

Thanks Bernard,
The site turned up this very true quote:

"One of the most important tools for a longer, healthier life is a deeper, slower breathing practice."
