At FoRM Health in Portland, OR, we offer tools to sustain and optimize brain function, focusing on anti-aging methods for brain health. Neurofeedback is the preferred treatment for brain optimization because it’s effective, safe, personalized, and efficient. Our team of experienced providers may offer neurofeedback alone or combined with other functional medicine services.
What Is Neurofeedback?
Neurofeedback is a specific treatment that uses visual and auditory cues to optimize, strengthen, and train the brain. Just like you would practice a strength training program to improve muscle strength and tone, neurofeedback is essentially a strength training program for the brain. Programs are customized to you, based on an initial assessment and scan of your brain, along with your specific goals and needs.
The initial brain scan allows us to observe any brain dysfunction, including hyperactive areas, hypoactive areas, and brain communication pathways that may be contributing to symptoms or concerns. A 24-lead initial brain scan helps us observe as much of the brain as possible.

FAQ
The definition of “brain health” encompasses many aspects, including your ability to remember, concentrate, make sense of the world, judge appropriately, plan accordingly, mental-emotional wellness, and maintaining healthy body patterns, including our sleep-wake cycle. If these processes are disrupted, it can affect mood, memory, focus, brain efficiency, athletic performance, sleep, and overall energy levels.
To establish a brain health baseline, we offer a “brain mapping,” full cognitive evaluation, and blood analysis. Based on your results, we offer a personalized treatment plan to help improve areas of weakness, preserve mental stamina, enhance memory processing, and optimize function, mood, and sleep. Treatment can include any one or a combination of multiple modalities, with our most common and efficient method being neurofeedback. We may also recommend IV nutritional therapy, supplement consolidation, lifestyle recommendations, or medication management as needed.
Following an initial brain scan, commonly called qEEG, a neurofeedback program is designed and personalized based on your results, along with any specific goals or concerns you may have. Training uses a series of electrodes placed on your scalp to record your brainwave activity and monitor progression. The program then uses visual cues on a screen and different auditory sounds to help train and reinforce specific brain waves in different areas of the brain. A major benefit of neurofeedback training is that you are an active participant in your treatment. Over time, this “brain training” method can optimize your cognitive function, memory, mental-emotional status, and other training goals.
While our office is located in SE Portland, Oregon, many of our patients travel from the greater Portland area, including: Lake Oswego, Beaverton, Hillsboro, Tigard, Milwaukie, Happy Valley, and Oregon City, for in-office visits and procedures.
