Drug-Free Brain Training That
Produces Lasting Change

What Is Neurofeedback?

Neurofeedback — also called EEG biofeedback — is a clinically validated brain training technique that has been used for over 40 years. It works by measuring your brain’s electrical activity in real time and providing instant feedback that teaches your brain to self-regulate. Think of it as physical therapy for the brain: targeted, data-driven, and producing lasting functional change.

During a session, small sensors placed on your scalp read brainwave activity. You watch a video or listen to audio that responds to your brain’s state. When your brain produces healthier patterns, the media plays smoothly and rewards are given. When activity drifts toward dysregulated patterns, the feedback pauses or dims. Over time — typically 20 to 40 sessions — the brain learns to maintain the optimal state on its own. The changes persist after training ends, because the underlying patterns have changed, not just the symptoms.

The American Academy of Pediatrics has classified neurofeedback as a Level 1 “Best Support” intervention for ADHD — the same evidence level as medication. Research spanning decades supports its effectiveness for anxiety, depression, PTSD, insomnia, autism spectrum conditions, concussions, migraines, and cognitive decline.

Why Every Program Starts With a QEEG Brain Map

Generic neurofeedback is guesswork. Without knowing exactly which brain regions and frequency bands are dysregulated, a practitioner is applying a one-size-fits-all protocol to a highly individual problem. This is why results at some clinics are inconsistent — the training isn’t matched to what’s actually happening in that particular brain.

Our 20-channel QEEG brain map measures electrical activity across your entire cortex and compares your patterns against a normative database of healthy brains. The result is a color-coded topographic map showing exactly where your brain is overactive, underactive, or out of sync. This data becomes the blueprint for your personalized training protocol.

Your brain map is also repeated at the midpoint of your program — giving both you and Dr. Dody objective, measurable evidence of progress. Many patients find it deeply motivating to see their brain patterns normalizing on the follow-up map, often before they’ve noticed the full extent of symptom improvement.

The Only Littleton Practice Combining Neurofeedback + Chiropractic

Dr. Michael Dody is a licensed chiropractor and certified neurofeedback specialist — a combination that is genuinely rare. Most neurofeedback clinics are staffed by counselors or technicians who treat the brain as if it exists independently of the rest of the nervous system. It doesn’t.

Spinal dysfunction — particularly in the cervical spine — directly influences autonomic nervous system tone, vagal regulation, and the brain’s baseline stress response. By combining QEEG-guided neurofeedback with brain-based chiropractic adjustments (KST technique, gentle and instrument-based), we address the nervous system from the top down and the bottom up simultaneously. This bidirectional approach consistently produces faster, more lasting results than either modality alone.
