Healing Trauma and Creating New Neural Pathways in the Brain: An Overview of Neurostimulation and Brain Mapping
Taproot Therapy Collective
Therapy is a safe space for self discovery, healing of trauma, and personal growth.
Neurostimulation and brain mapping are cutting-edge techniques that can help heal trauma and promote the formation of new neural connections in the brain. Here's how these sessions work:
Step 1: Brain Mapping
Using a technique called qEEG, a comprehensive map of the brain is created. This map provides valuable insights to clinicians about areas of the brain that are functioning optimally and areas where there may be challenges. This information goes beyond traditional testing and can provide a deeper understanding of an individual's unique diagnosis. Based on the brain map, a customized neurostimulation plan is developed.
The brain map also helps individuals and their therapists gain insight into their unique psychology and the specific "flavor" of the disorder being treated, helping to better understand how the brain is functioning.
Step 2: Neurostimulation
During neurostimulation sessions, individuals wear a cap with electrodes that can mimic the frequency of the neurons in their brain. This cap uses specific frequencies, called phases, that replicate the natural way neurons communicate with each other in the brain.
The neurostimulation cap acts like another part of the brain, "talking" directly to the neurons and opening up new neural pathways while teaching the brain new skills, such as improved focus or increased ability to tolerate stress and pain.
Step 3: Neurofeedback
After neurostimulation has created new neural pathways and connections, neurofeedback is used to reinforce and strengthen them. This helps make the progress permanent without the need for medication or long-term therapy.

Neurofeedback can have a wide range of benefits, such as boosting concentration, improving focus, enhancing athletic and academic performance, and making learning easier. It can also reduce symptoms of depression, anxiety, bipolar disorder, trauma, and ASD (autism spectrum disorder) more quickly and cost-effectively compared to other methods.
Understanding the Difference: Neurofeedback, TCMS, Biofeedback, MCNF, and Neurostimulation
Neurostimulation is a unique and advanced technology that differs from other techniques such as microcurrent neurofeedback, biofeedback, and transcranial magnetic stimulation (TCMS). While these older technologies use different frequencies to "reset" the brain, neurostimulation utilizes a more gentle frequency that mimics the brain's natural phases of communication, allowing for direct and targeted stimulation.
Neurostimulation: A Versatile Treatment for Various Conditions
Neurostimulation and brain mapping are versatile techniques that have shown effectiveness in treating a wide range of conditions. These may include bipolar disorder, anxiety, depression, PTSD, ASD (autism spectrum disorder), dissociation, mood disorders, chronic pain, and childhood emotional disorders, among others. Additionally, neurostimulation has shown promise in improving outcomes for eating disorders and substance abuse recovery.
Gaining Insight into How You Think with Brain Mapping
The neurons in the brain synchronize at different frequencies to facilitate different types of thinking or cognition. Brain mapping can provide valuable insights into an individual's preferred mode of thinking and identify any rigid patterns of cognition that may be hindering growth and change. Understanding these patterns can help you grow, discover and heal the self.
