Direct Neurofeedback | The Dubin Clinic

Direct Neurofeedback in Los Angeles

The Dubin Clinic for Direct Neurofeedback has been at the cutting edge of helping both children and adults with brain related dysfunction.

Direct Neurofeedback works in two basic ways. First, it reduces sympathetic part of our peripheral nervous system (fight or flight response) while at the same time enhancing the parasympathetic response (homeostasis, “rest and digest”). This results in relaxation, which allows the body to balance and restore itself. The second mechanism is in the central nervous system (CNS) itself. Direct Neurofeedback helps the brain get out of frozen, stuck patterns and allows the central nervous system to reorganize itself. It’s like rebooting a frozen computer.

This can have far-reaching positive effects on your health, including enhanced resilience and flexibility.

More immediate and requiring fewer sessions than traditional neurofeedback, Direct Neurofeedback sends out a very weak signal that allows the brain to get out of stuck patterns. Many of our clients, from former NFL stars with head injuries to combat veterans with PTSD to teenagers with depression or young children with ADD, report significant improvement including clarity, resilience and the multiple benefits of being more flexible, less anxious and stressed. Below, some of our clients share their stories.

Direct Neurofeedback is not a specific treatment for any one disorder. It is an adjunct to mainstream medicine and not meant to replace it.

Dr. David Dubin was an emergency room physician in Boston for 10 years. Coming to CA he was so impressed by Direct Neurofeedback that he decided to cease the practice medicine. The Dubin Clinic is specifically for the practice of Direct Neurofeedback and not engaged in the practice of medicine.

Dubin Clinic-NFL Study

Preliminary Findings

For part of 2013 and most of 2014 The Dubin Clinic ran a formal, Independent Review Board (IRB) approved research study. Dr. David Dubin was the primary investigator and George Rozelle, Ph.D., Michael Mark, Ph.D., and Meg Stuppy BS were Co-Investigators.

The study, which has not yet been submitted for publication, compared the clinical status of 10 former NFL players with varying degrees of post-concussive syndrome both before and after treatment with Direct Neurofeedback (vs traditional, or indirect neurofeedback.

All ten players improved both clinically and statistically in terms of symptoms, cognitive findings and brain maps (quantitative EEGs). Click on the button below for testimonials and findings.
