PMS: How Much Do We Really Know? "Basically, PMS has been piecemealed. It's like the story of the five blind men and the elephant. One checked the trunk, another the leg and so on, but nobody has the full picture." --Dr. Susan Thys-Jacobs (1). The Controversy There has been much controversy over the biological factors involved in the mood disorders and discomfort felt by countless women before the onset of menses. The common term for this discomfort is pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS). PMS

Introduction Attention Deficit Disorder comes under many names and manifests itself in many different ways. The basic definition of ADD includes a difficulty in concentrating and staying on a task with or without symptoms of hyperactivity. There are many different symptoms included in this definition, all listed in DSM IV. In this paper I will not differentiate between subtypes of ADD as the predominantly inattentive type, the predominately hyperactive impulsive type and the combined type. The

The unexplainable store review Introduction It is true that many people love to meditate every now and then. This is one of the major reasons why there are companies which specialize on meditation products. The Unexplainable store is one company which deals with meditation products. Do you know that your brainwaves are highly affected by the different states you experience? These states include being happy, sad among others. It very possible to train your brain waves to behave in a certain manner

solution is Neurofeedback, a non-invasive treatment for most mental health disorders, it helps even out both hemispheres of the brain through technology. All thanks to Neurologist, W. Berry Storman and Scientist, Wanda Wyrwick’s studies preformed on cats, this was made possible. They injected a chemical into cats, which half of them had Neurofeedback preformed on and the other half not, and meticulously studied their brain waves. The studies revealed that the cats which had Neurofeedback preformed

Neurofeedback is a form of therapeutical biofeedback that utilizes real-time visualization of brain activity. Most commonly, this is done by use of electroencephalography, or EEG. The purpose of this form of therapy is to train the brain to manipulate and even change its function. There is a lot of controversy surrounding this therapy, especially regarding whether it is effective or not. It’s a relatively new concept in the field of neuroscience and there are plenty of arguments regarding the benefits

Much Does it Cost? Typically, there are three steps involved in proceeding with Neurofeedback therapy. First, we would meet for a 60-minute initial assessment. During this time we will gather a comprehensive history of your symptoms and problems. We will review your medical records, if any. In the end we will be able to offer you our diagnosis and recommend a treatment plan, which may or may not involve Neurofeedback. Or, if further clarification is needed, we might request additional records, suggest

Neurofeedback is a behavioral therapy technique which can be traced back to the early 1930s. During this time, the first observations were made that the EEG alpha-blocking response could be classically conditioned during sleep (Mayer & Arns, 2016). Joe Kamiya is regarded as the original pioneer of modern neurofeedback. He developed a series of experiments demonstrating that individuals can control brainwaves through feedback. His experiments focused on training alpha waves, a mental state associated

created by the team of neuroscientists could lead to a new way of treating patients with these conditions or fears. They neuroscientists first developed a method to read and identify a fear memory using a new technique called 'Decoded Neurofeedback'.Decoded Neurofeedback is the technique used for brain scanning to monitor activity in the brain, and identify complex patterns of activity that resembled a specific fear memory. They then administered a brief shook when they saw a certain computer image

Neurofeedback is defined as a speciality field within biofeedback, which is dedicated to training people to gain control over the electro-physiological processes in the human brain (Demos, 2005). It is a non invasive technique that uses an electroencephalograph (EEG) to measure electrical brain signals in terms of their frequency and amplitude, during a task an individual performs. Once the EEG has been recorded the raw traces are then separated into individual frequency components (Delta, Theta

Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is an intricate developmental disability. Symptoms appear during early stages of childhood and affect a person's ability to communicate and interact with others. According to the Center for Disease Control, their latest statistics show that 1 out of 68 children have been identified with having autism spectrum disorder. Autism affects many who have been diagnosed differently because of the wide range of symptoms and levels of functioning that take place. Early signs
