What is LORETA Neurofeedback?

LORETA Neurofeedback (Low-Resolution Electromagnetic Tomography Analysis) is an advanced brain training technology that maps and trains brain activity in 3D.

Unlike traditional neurofeedback, which works only on surface brainwaves, LORETA can target deeper brain regions and the networks that connect them.

How LORETA Neurofeedback Works

Brain Mapping: Sensors measure brainwave activity and LORETA software creates a 3D map of brain function.

  1. Real-Time Feedback: The system compares activity to healthy brain patterns. Clients then receive visual or auditory cues that guide the brain toward balance.

  2. Self-Regulation: Over time, the brain learns to function more efficiently—improving focus, calmness, and emotional control.

The Process of Neurofeedback

  • Electrodes record the brain’s electrical signals.

  • LORETA algorithms calculate activity in dozens of brain regions at once.

  • The system compares the brain activity to a database of “normative” functioning (z-scores).

  • The person gets real-time feedback (often through visual or auditory cues), which helps the brain learn to self-regulate.

Why Do We Use Neurofeedback?

Because it targets deeper and more precise brain regions, it may help with conditions like ADHD, anxiety, depression, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, and learning difficulties. We use neurofeedback because it trains the brain to function more efficiently and adaptively. It’s essentially “exercise for the brain,” helping people improve focus, emotional regulation, and overall mental performance. Unlike medications that manage symptoms temporarily, neurofeedback teaches the brain to self-regulate, leading to lasting changes.

Who Can Neurofeedback Benefit?

    ASD - Autism Spectrum Disorder

    For individuals on the autism spectrum, challenges may include communication, social connection, and sensory overstimulation. LORETA Neurofeedback works on networks that support emotional regulation and flexible thinking.

    - Strengthens social communication and engagement.

    - Encourages adaptive, flexible thinking and behavior.

    - Helps reduce overstimulation and emotional outbursts.

    - Supports greater self-awareness and self-regulation.

    ADD - Attention Deficit Disorder

    Individuals with ADD often struggle with staying focused, completing tasks, and avoiding mental “drifting.” LORETA Neurofeedback targets the brain networks involved in sustained attention and executive function.

    - Builds consistent mental focus and clarity.

    - Reduces daydreaming and inattentiveness.

    - Improves organizational skills and the ability to follow through.

    Trauma & PTSD

    Trauma can leave the brain “stuck” in survival mode, with heightened stress responses, intrusive memories, and emotional triggers. LORETA Neurofeedback gently retrains these networks toward balance and resilience.

    - Reduces hypervigilance and startle responses.

    - Helps calm flashbacks and intrusive thoughts.

    - Restores a greater sense of safety and control.

    - Supports healing for both recent and long-standing trauma.

    ADHD - Attention Hyper-Active Deficit Disorder

    ADHD can cause restlessness, impulsivity, and difficulties with learning and behavior regulation. LORETA Neurofeedback helps balance overactive and underactive brain regions tied to focus and self-control.

    Enhances attention span and working memory.

    Strengthens impulse control and reduces hyperactive behaviors.

    Promotes better task completion at school, work, and home.

    Can reduce reliance on medication or serve as a valuable complement

    Anxiety

    Anxiety often stems from overactive brain regions that keep the mind and body stuck in “fight or flight.” LORETA Neurofeedback trains the brain to shift into calmer, more balanced states.

    - Calms excessive worry and rumination.

    - Promotes relaxation, better sleep, and emotional regulation.

    - Reduces physical symptoms such as muscle tension, restlessness, and fatigue.

    - Encourages a greater sense of inner calm and confidence.

    Depression

    Depression is often linked to brain regions that become underactive or disconnected, affecting mood, motivation, and energy. LORETA Neurofeedback helps re-engage these areas.

    - Improves mood stability and motivation.

    - Reduces negative thought patterns and rumination.

    - Supports energy, focus, and emotional balance.

    - Promotes resilience and a brighter outlook on life.

Frequently Asked Questions *

  • Yes. It is non-invasive, drug-free, and simply uses sensors to measure and guide brain activity. No electrical current is put into the brain.

  • Children, teens, and adults with ADHD, anxiety, autism, mood difficulties, or attention and learning challenges often see improvement. It can also help with stress, sleep, and brain injury recovery.

  • Most people benefit from 20–40 sessions, depending on individual needs. Changes build gradually as the brain learns new patterns.

  • It’s painless and comfortable. You’ll sit in a chair with small sensors on your scalp while you watch a movie or game that provides feedback to your brain.

  • Traditional neurofeedback trains surface brainwaves. LORETA can also reach deeper brain regions and networks, making it more precise and often more effective.

  • Yes. Because the brain is learning and rewiring itself, improvements are typically lasting, especially when combined with healthy routines.
