In her TED Talk “How childhood trauma affects health across a lifetime,” Dr. Nadine Burke discusses how exposure to trauma during childhood can dramatically increase people’s risk for 7 out of 10 of the leading causes of death in the U.S. These risks include high blood pressure, heart disease, and cancer.
Infra-low (ILF) Neurofeedback is effective in addressing trauma. Those with significant trauma are often hardwired for hypervigilance. ILF Neurofeedback targets the lower frequencies for such folks, reducing the hypervigilant state of the brain and diminishing the “fight or flight” response.
