Re: Are NP3, AVS and Thought stream Biofeedback complementary?
Hi Sam,
A potential problem that people run into when undertaking a program using light and sound stimulation is that if there are underlying medical or neurological conditions they may choose programs that could reinforce the unwanted brainwave patterns. For instance, Theta based sessions often by their description seem to be the most interesting... these brainwave patterns have been associated with hypnosis, hypnagogia, dreaming, trance.. etc.
However, for certain conditions such as ADHD an overabundance of waking Theta waves could already be produced. So you see that using programs that are designed to increase Theta wave production is potentially amplifying the underlying condition.
That is why it is wise to consult a medical professional if you wish to experiment with brainwave stimulation for treatment.
Still, the NP3 session you have chosen to try for ADHD is a good starting point and with repeated use you will be able to determine if it is working for you. After using daily for a month you will probably have a good measure of the effect.
For a new purchase to use with the Procyon, the MindWave is a better choice. With it you will be able to use the audio from the Procyon or from NP3 much easier because it doesn't have headphones built in.
You will have no problem with the Procyon in your country as it is powered by batteries or USB.
Hope this helps. Please update us with your progress and ask more questions if needed.
