Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) and Neurofeedback
ASD is a complex developmental disorder affecting social interaction, communication, eye contact, and behavior. Symptoms and their severity vary widely, with many children functioning well in some areas but struggling in others. Unrecognized auditory and visual processing problems often contribute to these challenges, as the brain has difficulty accurately interpreting sensory information.
Neurofeedback for mild to moderate ASD helps strengthen brain networks, improving social and sensory processing while reducing overactivation of emotional networks. By addressing these underlying processing difficulties, neurofeedback can reduce ASD symptoms and enhance overall functioning. This non-invasive, painless approach offers an effective alternative treatment. Unlike medication, neurofeedback carries few side effects, with the most common being a temporary feeling of tiredness after a session.
