Chemo-Induced Neuropathy & Neuromodulation FAQ
Neurofeedback Basics
What is neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a non‑invasive, evidence‑based method that trains the brain to regulate electrical activity. Sensors measure your brainwaves in real time, and the software provides feedback that helps your brain shift toward healthier patterns.
How does neurofeedback work?
Your clinician designs a personalized protocol based on your symptoms and qEEG results. During sessions, your technician runs the protocol using sensors and specialized software that rewards desired brainwave activity.
What conditions can neurofeedback help with?
Neurofeedback is commonly used for anxiety, trauma, sleep issues, focus and attention concerns, chronic stress, cognitive changes, and oncology‑adjacent symptoms such as fatigue and mood disruption.
qEEG Brain Mapping
What is a qEEG?
A quantitative EEG (qEEG) is a detailed brain‑mapping assessment that identifies neurophysiological patterns related to your symptoms. It guides your personalized neurofeedback treatment plan.
How much does a qEEG cost?
The total cost is $900, which includes:
-
qEEG Recording: $300
-
qEEG Interpretation, Data Processing & Clinical Review: $600
What is included in the qEEG recording?
Sensor placement, raw EEG acquisition, artifact reduction, and high‑quality data capture performed by trained staff.
What is included in the qEEG interpretation?
Advanced data processing, comparison to normative databases, neurophysiological interpretation, treatment planning, and a full clinical review session to discuss your results.
Do I need a qEEG before starting neurofeedback?
Yes. A qEEG provides the neurophysiological information needed to design a safe and effective protocol.
Is qEEG safe?
Yes. qEEG is non‑invasive, painless, and safe for all ages.
Treatment Process
How many neurofeedback sessions will I need?
Most patients complete 20–40 sessions, depending on symptoms, goals, and qEEG findings.
How long is each session?
Sessions typically last 45–60 minutes.
How often should I come in?
Most patients attend 2–3 sessions per week for best results.
When do I meet with the clinician?
You meet with your clinician during:
-
Intake
-
qEEG review
-
First few sessions
-
Scheduled clinical reviews
-
Progress qEEG
-
Any protocol changes
Safety & Suitability
Is neurofeedback safe?
Yes. Neurofeedback is non‑invasive and safe for children, adults, and older adults.
Can neurofeedback be used alongside therapy or medication?
Yes. Neurofeedback can complement psychotherapy, medication management, and integrative care.
Insurance & Payment
Is neurofeedback covered by insurance?
Most insurance plans do not cover neurofeedback or qEEG. A superbill is available upon request.
Do you accept HSA/FSA?
Yes. Neurofeedback and qEEG are eligible for HSA/FSA reimbursement.
Scheduling & Logistics
How do I get started?
Your first step is a qEEG brain map and clinical intake. After your results review, your clinician will design your personalized neurofeedback protocol.
Where are you located?
The team is based in Houston, TX. We can take the qEEG locally in Houston and have worked with other clinics to acquire the raw data nearer to your location. We also run many of our treatment sessions remotely.
