Be in control of your anger & aggression
Neurofeedback can help improve inattention, impulsivity, and hyperactivity
Anger and aggression rarely appear out of nowhere
They often stem from a brain already running “hot” with stress, tension, or unresolved trauma. In this over-activated state, the nervous system stays primed for survival mode, with the limbic system ready to fire at the slightest spark. As a result, even small frustrations can override the logical cortex, leading to impulsive and emotional reactions. It’s not that someone chooses to overreact—their brain is simply overloaded and lacks the buffer to keep emotions in check. This explains why reasoning, discipline, or rewards often fail in the heat of the moment; true change requires calming the underlying physiology. EEG brain mapping helps uncover these imbalances, while neurofeedback provides a way to retrain the brain and restore regulation.
Neurofeedback works by monitoring brainwave patterns in real time and feeding subtle cues back to the brain—rewarding it each time it shifts toward healthier rhythms. Over time, this training strengthens underactive networks and calms overactive ones, teaching the nervous system to regulate itself more effectively. As the baseline of activity settles, the brain stops defaulting to fight-or-flight responses and learns to stabilize its rhythms, much like a muscle grows stronger with practice. The result is not just a calmer state of mind but measurable changes in neural activity, where once-chaotic circuits now operate in balance. This makes the brain less reactive, more resilient, and better able to maintain control even in stressful moments.

An EEG brain map objectively measures brain function for people between the ages of 6 and 92. It identifies specific regions of the brain that may be producing too much, or too little electrical activity compared to a controlled, normative database of your same age and gender.
A brain map takes less than an hour to record and is neither invasive nor painful. You simply wear a cap with 19 sensors that record your brain’s electrical activity while you relax in a chair. It is similar to having an EKG record your heart. It’s as safe as a stethoscope!
Without an EEG brain map, healthcare providers and therapists rely solely on subjective information like symptoms and history. Neuroscience research has identified 6 different types of brain physiology that can produce anxiety symptoms and 6 others that can produce ADHD symptoms.
Many symptoms can be the result of abnormal brain activity during sleep cycles. Understanding the physiological source is imperative to any treatment plan. EEG brain mapping is the technology that provides an objective assessment to help direct the most effective brain health interventions.
An EEG brain map can help identify if your brain function is being affected by nutritional deficiencies, environmental factors, genetic factors, sleep cycle dysfunction, or due to post-concussion activity. If one or more of these are identified, we will recommend specific nutritional interventions, changes to your diet, changes in lifestyle, specific genetic tests, or EEG biofeedback sessions (Neurofeedback) to optimize your brain’s electrical activity.
Yes, there are hundreds of research studies on EEG for a wide variety of symptoms, including memory problems, anxiety, depression, traumatic brain injury (TBI), ADD/ADHD, and processing issues.
EEG is considered the “Gold Standard” in neuroscience for measuring real-time brain function. EEG brain mapping is used by the Department of Defense as well as top institutions including UCLA, UCSD, Stanford and many others.
Yes, continue to take your medications prescribed by your doctor. We know how medications affect your brain map and can account for this when reviewing the results.
Once your brain map is fully processed, you will have a 1-hour consultation to review your brain map findings with our Director of Neuroscience, Bryan Hixson. Mr. Hixson is one of the leading neuroscience experts in quantitative EEG brain mapping, neurocognitive testing, neurofeedback brain training, and nutritional cellular health.
Mr. Hixson is a brain health expert consultant for AARP’s Staying Sharp platform, serving 38 million members. He is also the Director of Digital Brain Health for Sharecare/DoctorOz.com, the founder and neuroscience director of the Brain Performance Centers, and an EEG brain mapping contractor for the U.S. Army. Additionally, Mr. Hixson is the co-founder of BrainSpan Laboratories, which is used by over 1,000 doctors nationwide. It is the most clinically validated blood spot test available for optimizing fatty acids related to brain health.
Even though EEG brain mapping has hundreds of research studies, currently, insurance does not pay or reimburse for EEG brain maps. The current insurance model is to prescribe medications solely based on symptoms and history. EEG technology is still a few years away from being considered a “main stream” medical diagnostic tool. However, the Brain Performance Center has recently reduced the price for a full EEG brain map to only $500 (the price for the last 5 years has been $975). This helps make it an affordable, out-of-pocket brain health investment.
