I am glad to be part of the experts here to provide effective intervention plans for children with special needs.

Special thanks to my psychology assistant for helping me today.


Title: Clinical Neurofeedback: Brain training for children with special needs  

Abstract:
Human brain can be trained at any age and new neurons are produced throughout our life. The term of neuroplasticity is well accepted nowadays. Clinical Neurofeedback is based on the concept of neuroplasticity that trains the brain like a muscle. Clinical Neurofeedback is the clinical application of EEG Biofeedback method. It can be applied to some diagnosed (mental) conditions such as (ADHD, Autism, Learning Difficulties, Tics Disorder, Mood Issues). Clinical Neurofeedback is a form of tailored to individual needs training procedure used by trained practitioners to optimize various brain functions. This is essentially a way of teaching individuals on how to self-regulate their own brainwaves. It is safe, non-invasive and painless. A case study will be discussed on how Clinical Neurofeedback helps a child who diagnosed with autism spectrum disorder to reduce his autism symptoms and improving executive functioning. Different brainwaves profile of the various disorders will be discussed as well. We will also discuss about how Clinical Neurofeedback can effectively regulate different brainwaves profile of children who diagnosed with ADHD or for those who are having similar brainwaves pattern in order to reduce the undesirable symptoms of ADHD. At last, the heart of the potential of Clinical Neurofeedback to help manage Tourette syndrome and tics disorder will be discussed too.

[Event] Asia Pacific Neuro-biofeedback Association Conference 2017 - Autonomic Nervous Dysfunction Part



My presentation topic in APNA 2017 Conference:
Autonomic Nervous System Disorders




Abstract of My Presentation

Human brain can be trained at any age and new neurons are produced throughout our life. The term of neuroplasticity is well accepted nowadays. EEG biofeedback or neurofeedback is based on the concept of neuroplasticity that trains the brain like a muscle. Clinical Neurofeedback is the clinical application of EEG Biofeedback method. Meanwhile, Clinical Hypnosis is a therapeutic technique in which clinicians make suggestions to individuals to improve a wide range of conditions including physical and mental aspect. Both are safe, non-invasive and painless procedure. According to the National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke, autonomic nervous system (ANS) disorders can occur alone or as the result of another disease. When something goes wrong in our autonomic nervous system, it can cause serious problems including Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS), blood pressure and heart problems etc. Often, there is no cure for autonomic nervous system disorders but it is possible to improve those symptoms. Thus, a case study will be discussed on how Neuro-hypnotherapy method helps a client who suffered for ANS disorder symptoms. At last, we will also discuss about how to integrate Clinical Neurofeedback and Clinical Hypmosis to improve other ANS disorder symptoms.

Review ( Clinical Neurofeedback Training Malaysia for ADHD case) - Muhammad Takif Case



Client Name:  Muhammad T
Age: Around 10 years old



I am a mother also a teacher who faced a lot of difficulties in taking care of my son. 
Before following the clinical neurofeedback training sessions, my son will get angry very easily as he cannot manage his anger. He was quite aggressive and we cannot force him to do something that he does not like to do. Besides, he was unable to sit still and was fidget. 

During the course of training, he became more obedient like he was willing to tidy up his own toy and cleaned up the floor. He also showed other improvements like he was calmer and more relax. Besides, he tended to pay more attention when we were talking to him. He even can comfort and take care of his little brother. 

After 10 sessions of training, he can sit properly and no more fidgeting. 

Throughout the period, teacher tended to pay more attention and observed him as he need more care. His teacher also realized some improvements in his behaviors. After moving him into another class with less student, he showed more positive behaviors and he was less aggressive if compared to last time. 

In academic area, he can focus and pay more attention during teaching and learning. In addition, he managed to finish his school works and understood more easily about the concepts that he had learned. 

In curriculum, he became more active. He was willing to follow instructions during activity. He even represented his school in Nasheed Competition. 

In short, my son showed significant improvements after the training sessions with Hiro Koo.
