Text Box: Getting Started With Neurofeedback (continued from page 3) Different ways of hooking up someone for training are covered and the mystery of one and/or two channel training can be grasped. .Alpha/theta and deep state training are mentioned. Treatment approaches where the brain is driven by visual and/or auditory stimulation (AVE) are covered. So is regional cerebral blood flow (HEG) so the reader gets a good sense of some of the other treatments that exist under the big umbrella of neurotherapy. For the person who wants to earnestly get into the field, Mr. Demos covers such things as cost of equipment, supervision and training, choosing an office and gives some tips about marketing. In sum, Mr. Demos has done a commendable job of putting together a book that grounds a person in the essentials of neurotherapy. This book has a lot of breadth and clarity to it. If you read and reread this book you are well on your way to having a solid foundation from which to proceed in your work. Harold S. Schaus, Jr., M.S., DAPA BCIA Sr. Fellow in Biofeedback.
