Neurotherapy Clinics Worldwide
EEG Spectrum - click here
EEG Spectrum is a major contributing site on Neurotherapy on the World Wide Web, and holds a wealth of resources and information on Neurotherapy. Affiliated offices are located around the globe. It has several full text clinical and academic articles on Neurotherapy and many other abstracts.
FlexyxÔ Neurotherapy - click here
Since 1990, Len Ochs Phd. Has developed the Flexyx Neurotherapy System (FNS), an advanced form of biofeedback which does not require learning or practice. The system monitors the individual's brainwaves, analyses the EEG patterns and uses the ever-changing patterns to continuously alter the frequency of the impulse relevant to the person in teatment. This system has been effective in the treatment of conditions such as chronic fatigue syndrome, fybromyalgia, depression, epilepsy and Tourette's syndrome.
Society for Neuronal Regulation - click here
Practitioners of Neurofeedback in Australia and the US belong to this association. The site contains a wealth of information on the latest research in neurofeedback.

Located in Melbourne, Australia, the Behavioural Neurotherapy Clinic provides psychological, psychophysiological and psychometric assessments of children and adults with ADD, ADHD.
Applicationof the Exorphin Hypothesis to Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder: A Theoretical Framework by Ronald Hoggan - click here
This article is highly recommended and explores the scientific literature which points to a connection that exorphins (toxic substances from outside the body -usually ingested) are a contributory factor to many cases of ADD/HD.

The Society for Neuroscience - click here
The Society for Neuroscience is the world's largest organization of scientists and physicians dedicated to understanding the brain, spinal cord and peripheral nervous system. Neuroscientists investigate the molecular and cellular levels of the nervous system; the systems within the brain, such as vision and hearing; and behavior produced by the brain. This research provides the basis for understanding the medical fields concerned with treating nervous system disorders. These medical specialties include neurology, neurosurgery, psychiatry and opthalmology.
