Functional EEG Brain Mapping & Activation Feedback

PLEASE NOTE: THE FOLLOWING HAS PERSONALLY BEEN WRITTEN BY DR. GREG CANTU FOR YOUR EDUCATION, AND ABOVE ALL, TO BENEFIT THE HEALTH OF YOU AND YOUR LOVED ONES.

Our Functional EEG (fEEG) Brain Mapping and fEEG Brain Activation Feedback℠ uses a one-of-a-kind Science-Based Neurology approach to comprehensively diagnose and treat the brain. This Combined-Discipline Brain Function Evaluation was developed by Dr. Cantu when he realized the need after his brain injury. Our unique Functional Exam, Lobe-by-Lobe Diagnosis, and Brain Activation are the key to finding the source of symptoms and maintaining improvements. We believe a singular approach using Machine-Based Traditional Neurofeedback has its place, but clearly, it was not designed to evaluate the brain with the same comprehensive detail as our Neurology-Based Combined-Therapy process. 

Dr. Cantu has personally analyzed over 100,000 individual fEEG Cortex readings over three decades of treating numerous types of brain conditions and injuries. 

We welcome healthcare practitioners to attend our training and learn our Neurology-Based Process so that they are better able to serve their clients and patients.    

OUR RECENT INNOVATIONS IN BRAIN INJURY DIAGNOSIS & TREATMENT

Functional EEG Brain Mapping

fEEG Brain Activation Feedback

Dr. Cantu’s Combined-Discipline is the most recent industry update in 80 years. It has been in development for 30 years with ongoing research to date.

Dr. Greg Cantu created the one-of-a-kind Functional EEG (fEEG) Brain Mapping and Brain Activation fEEG Feedback out of his own need for a better and more True Brain Diagnosis after his brain injury in 1994. This innovative Combined-discipline process is the first and only Combined-Multidiscipline Brain Mapping & Feedback process available today. It is surprisingly effective because we integrate a proprietary Lobe-by-Lobe fEEG Evaluation with a Functional Neurology Examination and Natural Brain Activation. Our Sensory Brain Activation alone has helped countless patients who did not respond to Traditional Machine-Based Neurofeedback.

Our innovative Combined-Discipline approach provides a more accurate brain diagnosis and quicker, longer-lasting improvements. Because our process greatly reduces the length of treatment it has saved our patients a considerable amount of time and money. Unlike other machine-based only approaches, we do not rely on repetitive sessions as the only answer to solve complex neurological problems. Our innovative multidiscipline approach allows us to pinpoint brain function problems, apply natural brain activation, and then validate that the brain has improved!

The “Activation” part of Activation fEEG alone has helped countless patients improve that did not respond to many other types of Traditional Based Neurofeedback which is only Machine-Based. For many, this natural Sensory Brain Activation was the missing piece that helped them recover. 

Our proprietary fEEG Brain Mapping displays an amplified Raw fEEG in real-time. We have the unique ability to make a pinpoint lobe-by-lobe diagnoses of the exact areas causing persistent symptoms. Finding and focusing on the exact problem areas is a great advancement in patient recovery. Treatment approaches like medications and supplements often fail longterm because they are for the most part addressing the brain problem areas in a very general way. Those general treatments cannot target the pinpoint weak and overactive problem areas, validate improvement, or monitor the need for continued treatment on an regular basis the way we do.  

fEEG Mapping True Synaptic Neuroplasticity in Anxiety

Above, a 13 year old females Functional EEG Diagnosis uncovers her brain was stuck in an unhealthy overactive stress pattern. This was the cause of her severe anxiety which then led to secondary symptoms of insomnia and fatigue. In just seconds the dysfunctional brain activity that was causing her anxiety shifted into a nearly normal healthy pattern. After a few Functional EEG Brain Mapping sessions she commented, “it feels so good to feel normal again”. We know our diagnosis is correct every time the fEEG improvements correlate with the patient feeling better.

OUR ONE-OF-A-KIND fEEG BRAIN MAPPING INITIAL EVALUATION:

These are the Keys to Uncovering the Root Cause of Persistent Symptoms:
Our Unique Combined-Discipline Discovery Phase℠
General History & Brain-Specific History
Head Injury / Persistent Symptom Timeline
Functional Neurology Examination
Speed Reaction Test
Two Hemisphericity Assessments – A Functional Neurology Exam and fEEG Mapping℠
fEEG Mapping and fEEG Feedback with Brain Activation(afferentation)
Short-Term and Life-Long Recommendations

Important to nearly every successful outcome: Two Hemisphericity (hemisphere balance) assessments using our Functional Neurology Exam & fEEG Mapping℠ with our Activation fEEG Feedback Mapping℠ with Simultaneous Treatment℠

The Activation fEEG Feedback Combined-Discipline process developed by Dr. Greg Cantu uses over 40 different evaluation and treatment protocols. In addition, were integrate 9 treatment combinations for quicker, more magnified improvements.   This offers the patient a much more comprehensive approach for a better, more accurate diagnosis.  This difference is what helps patients to retain longer-lasting improvements compared to Traditional Machine-Based Neurofeedback. We are the only office that is currently offering fEEG Mapping and Activation fEEG Feedback but will begin training doctors and Traditional Neurofeedback practitioners in 2024 to make it more widely available.

THIS NATURAL PROCESS INTEGRATES TWO EFFECTIVE DISCIPLINES, FUNCTIONAL NEUROLOGY (Brain Weakness Evaluation & Sensory Activation), and ACTIVATION fEEG FEEDBACK (Lobe by Lobe Brainwave Mapping & Brainwave True Synaptic Feedback Training).  WE CAN PRECISELY MEASURE AND SEE THAT BRAIN ACTIVITY IS ACTUALLY BEING RESTORED TO MORE NORMAL ORGANIZED PATTERNS.  Combining the benefits of two different professions can be much more effective in obtaining long-term improvements than a standalone discipline.

An fEEG Mapping evaluation is an assessment of your Brain’s Electrical Function. This provides us with a True Real-Time Diagnosis of your healthy and unhealthy brainwaves. It uncovers your brain’s chronically “Stuck Patterns” that are the root cause of many symptoms. Activation fEEG Feedback treatment is always included in the evaluation.

A Functional Neurology Examination Uncovers Impaired Brain Hemisphere Function

After recovering from his own injuries, Dr. Cantu began to combine the specialties below to help his patients recover more quickly.  His Activation EEG process uniquely pinpoints and targets the problem brain areas that cause symptoms.  A proper evaluation before beginning treatment is one of the keys to long-lasting improvement. We can precisely measure and see that brain activity is actually being restored to more normal organized patterns.  When the root cause of symptoms improves, brain function improves and symptoms are naturally reduced and even eliminated.

Because our focus is to fundamentally improve brain function at the source of persistent symptoms, a variety of symptoms and conditions due to poor brain function can be helped. Pinpointing and improving the worst functioning brain areas helps the whole brain work better and improves the person far better than an approach that focuses only on reducing symptoms.

For the past 3 decades, countless conditions and symptoms have been helped with our innovative evaluation and treatment process because our focus was on finding the problem brain areas that were causing symptoms. By targeting the exact weak or overactive areas, brain function is much more likely to improve long-term, which in turn naturally results in the long-term improvement of symptoms.

Please see a small sampling of our powerful results below. They were possible using our Functional Brain Mapping (fEEG) Activation fEEG Feedback when other previous treatment approaches were unsuccessful.

  • A 10-year-old has better focus and was taken off ADHD medication after 3 sessions
  • A 14-year-old suffered from severe anxiety for 8 years. Anxiety was reduced to mild in 3 sessions
  • After being on Prozac and Adderall for 20 years, they no longer need either medication
  • Took anxiety medication for 10 years and was able to get off the medication completely after 6 sessions
  • Both depression and anxiety went from 8 out of 10 severity, to 3 out of 10, after 12 sessions
  • Debilitating migraines after brain surgery were fully resolved after 5 months of treatment 
  • A veteran was disabled for 4 years with, anxiety, panic attacks, PTSD, and suicidal thoughts and was able to return to work again after our out-of-town intensive program
  • 30-40 seizures per month were reduced to 2-3 per month ~ “I feel like I’ve been given a second chance at life”
  • Unable to read after a stroke. Can read again after treatment and headaches & pain from stroke were fully resolved
  • A swallowing reflex that was lost after TBI, coma, and brain damage was fully restored. Speech and balance also improved.
  • Partial blindness from a stroke was restored in 5 sessions. Documented with before and after visual field testing by their ophthalmologist. The paper I presented at a Neuro-Optometric conference is available. 

Activation fEEG Feedback℠ is a process that both evaluates and improves the brain’s electrical function by improving the imbalances that cause symptoms.  It detects abnormal brainwave activity and encourages the brain’s production of more normal brainwave patterns.  This natural process is one of the best opportunities for the brain to heal itself.

Activation fEEG℠ is a non-invasive diagnostic technology that can detect the exact areas of brain imbalance that are causing symptoms.  It is also a therapeutic brain training process that encourages the brain to return to balance. When we comb our hair in the mirror our brain learns how to move the comb to make precise changes. Similarly, our real-time self-regulation feedback process provides a real-time opportunity for the brain to change and heal itself.

Our unique Feedback is a more advanced type of biofeedback that focuses on the central nervous system. Brainwave activity is measured using EEG technology through painless sensors placed on the scalp.  The information is relayed to the patient by sound and a visual graphic display.

Activation fEEG℠ stabilizes the electrical activity of the central nervous system to reduce anxiety, depression, insomnia, inattentiveness and hyperactivity, cognitive deficits, memory loss, and much more. Like training a muscle, in most people, the brain can be trained to produce healthier brain wave patterns more consistently, resulting in less stress & anxiety, and improved mood, better sleep, and increased cognitive performance.

Our fEEG Mapping℠ provides the central nervous system with moment-by-moment feedback on its current activity. The brain can be trained to use this information to improve mental performance, emotional balance, health, and well-being.  Through a series of Activation fEEG℠ sessions, with little or no effort on the patient’s part, the brain reorganizes itself.  This results in better brain function which translates into a better quality of life.

HEAD INJURY AND SYMPTOMS – CONNECTING THE TWO

The reality is that a connection between someone’s current problems and past head injuries is seldom made by either themselves or their healthcare provider.  The effects of head trauma are far-reaching, including the underlying cause of many symptoms, especially “brain symptoms”.  Our Functional EEG (fEEG) Brain Mapping℠ EEG evaluation is designed to uncover the cause of your symptoms by examining the electrical activity of the lobes of the brain.
