Brain Mapping
EEG (an electroencephalogram) is a recording of brainwave activity. QEEG (Quantitative EEG), popularly known as Brain Mapping, refers to a comprehensive analysis of brainwave frequency bandwidths that make up the raw EEG. QEEG is recorded the same exact way as an EEG, but the raw data acquired in the recording are used to create topographic color coded "maps" that show electrical activity of the cerebral cortex.
While other brain imaging techniques (e.g., CT, MRI, PET, SPECT) measure such properties as cerebral blood flow, metabolism or structural integrity, QEEG measures electrical activity of the brain. It provides complex analysis of such brainwave characteristics as symmetry, phase, coherence, amplitude, power and dominant frequency. In fact, subtle disruptions of electrical connectivity and flow in the brain sometimes may be the only or early signs of a problem.
Brain mapping is an essential diagnostic procedure used in evaluating brain based problems such as ADD/ADHD, Anxiety and Depression, Learning Disorders, Insomnia, Cognitive Decline, Autism Spectrum, and PTSD. It tells us if the symptoms are neurologically-based and if any of the areas of the brain are malfunctioning or misfiring. If neurologically caused, then there is a high probability of treatment success using Coherent Neurofeedback or our comprehensive treatment protocols.
We are pleased to be the only known board certified professional and licensed doctor of chiropractic in the state of New Jersey to offer this groundbreaking diagnostic procedure, using a research-grade, 19-channel Q, together with a research neuropsychologist, using a whole-body, functional approach to healing the brain and the body's second brain, the gut. Update: We are currently only offering Virtual Home Coaching services until further notice.
