Panic Attacks and Anxiety Attacks

How Neurofeedback Therapy Helps Panic and Anxiety Attacks

Neurofeedback therapy is a non-invasive, science-backed treatment that helps individuals gain control over their nervous system by retraining the brain’s electrical activity. Anxiety and panic attacks are often linked to excessive fast-wave (beta) activity or dysregulated slow-wave (theta) activity in specific brain regions. Neurofeedback helps restore balance by guiding the brain toward healthier patterns of function.

The Neurofeedback Process:

  1. Brain Mapping (qEEG Analysis): A quantitative EEG (qEEG) brain map identifies overactive or underactive areas related to anxiety and panic.

  2. Targeted Neurofeedback Training: Using real-time feedback, the brain learns to regulate stress responses and reduce hyperactivity in anxiety-related regions.

  3. Ongoing Brain Training: Over multiple sessions, neurofeedback strengthens the brain’s ability to stay calm and focused, reducing the frequency and intensity of panic and anxiety attacks.

Neurofeedback therapy works by reinforcing optimal brainwave patterns, training the brain to shift out of a chronic fight-or-flight state into a more balanced and relaxed state.

Benefits of Neurofeedback for Anxiety and Panic Attacks

  • Reduces Overactive Stress Responses – Helps calm the nervous system, reducing the frequency of panic and anxiety attacks.

  • Improves Emotional Regulation – Enhances the brain’s ability to manage stress and worry without feeling overwhelmed.

  • Enhances Sleep and Relaxation – Supports better sleep patterns, reducing overall anxiety levels.

  • Provides a Drug-Free Solution – Many individuals experience relief without the need for medication.

  • Creates Long-Term Changes – Unlike short-term coping strategies, neurofeedback retrains the brain for lasting improvements.

If you struggle with panic or anxiety attacks, neurofeedback therapy can help you regain control and restore a sense of calm in your life. Contact us today to schedule a brain mapping session and explore a personalized approach to anxiety relief.
