Anxiety disorders, including Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD), are characterized by excessive worry, fear, and repetitive behaviors.
ILF neurofeedback targets the brainwaves linked to anxiety, helping to calm overactive brain regions and balance the autonomous nervous system, improving emotional regulation. By promoting relaxation and enhancing brain flexibility, neurofeedback reduces symptoms of anxiety and OCD, improving overall mental health.

Alzheimer’s and dementia affect memory, thinking and behavior. ILF neurofeedback can help delay the progression of the disease and reduce symptoms such as memory loss, confusion, and difficulty concentrating.
While neurofeedback can’t reverse structural brain damage caused by Alzheimer’s disease, it can help prevent relapse while improving memory, recall and recognition. ILF neurofeedback can improve any type of cognitive impairment.

While Autism does not have a cure, there are therapies that reduce symptoms, and increase the ability to function and improve the quality of life of people on the autism spectrum.
ILF neurofeedback therapy can remediate abnormalities in brain activity, which result in increased function and reduced symptoms.
Steel City Neurofeedback works with adolescents and adults who are of mild or moderate severity on the Autism spectrum.
Chronic pain, including conditions like fibromyalgia, can significantly impact quality of life. ILF neurofeedback is used to retrain the brain’s response to pain signals, helping to reduce the perception of pain and improve coping mechanisms.
Studies indicate that neurofeedback can be particularly effective for managing chronic pain by targeting specific brainwaves that regulate pain and stress responses.
Depression is a mental health disorder marked by persistent sadness, loss of interest, and emotional dysregulation.
Neurofeedback helps regulate brainwave activity, encouraging balanced brain functioning and improving mood stability. This approach can lead to long-term relief for individuals who have not responded well to medication or traditional therapy.
Epilepsy is a neurological disorder characterized by recurrent seizures. ILF neurofeedback works by training the brain to stabilize electrical activity, reducing the likelihood of seizure events.
Over time, neurofeedback can help patients gain better control over their brain activity, potentially reducing the frequency and severity of seizures.
Insomnia is the inability to fall or stay asleep, often caused by stress, anxiety, or irregular brainwave activity.
Neurofeedback addresses the brainwave imbalances that contribute to sleep difficulties by promoting the brain’s ability to relax. Over time, individuals experience improved sleep patterns, better sleep quality, and a reduction in nighttime awakenings.
Migraines and tension-type headaches (TTH) are severe headaches often accompanied by nausea, sensitivity to light, and visual disturbances.
ILF neurofeedback helps by reducing the frequency and intensity of migraine attacks through its non-drug brainwave training. By addressing abnormal brainwave patterns and regulating cortical activity, neurofeedback can provide lasting relief for migraine sufferers.
Many athletes use neurofeedback to enhance their mental performance and to gain a competitive edge. Neurofeedback enhances focus and emotional control, slows cognitive decline and aids in concussion & traumatic brain injury recovery.
Neurofeedback is revolutionizing the way athletes train and compete, helping them optimize their focus, reduce stress, and achieve a state of peak performance.
Whether from Parkinson’s Disease or Essential Tremors, ILF neurofeedback can help the brain reorganize and form new connections, improving the tremors associated with these conditions.
ILF is a non-pharmacological and non-surgical option for managing the distressing motor symptoms in people with PD. ILF neurofeedback can also be used to stabilize a client before undergoing deep brain stimulation (DBS), increasing its efficacy.
Traumatic Brain Injury (TBI) occurs when a sudden trauma causes damage to the brain, leading to cognitive, physical, and emotional impairments.
Neurofeedback aids in the recovery process of TBI by promoting neuroplasticity—helping the brain reorganize and form new connections, and can improve cognitive function, memory, mood, and emotional regulation for TBI patients.
Trauma affects the brain at all levels. ILF neurofeedback can help with post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD) symptoms by helping people learn to regulate their brain activity and reduce the frequency and severity of their PTSD symptoms.
ILF neurofeedback has become accepted as part of an integrative and holistic approach for treating survivors of trauma.

If you’d like more detailed information about ILF neurofeedback and the treatment of these and other conditions, simply contact us online with your questions or call us at (412) 212-2333.
Our neurofeedback resources page contains additional information about neurofeedback and its applications and efficacy.
There are plenty of ILF neurofeedback informational resources online. One of them is The Neurofeedback Advocacy Project. You can also jump right to NAP’s research publications or their neurofeedback videos.
An addition source for research information about Infra-Low Frequency neurofeedback is the scientific journal Frontiers in Human Neuroscience, which has 18 articles specific to ILF.
Again, if you have any questions, contact us. We look forward to working with you and your loved ones to achieve optimum brain health.
