IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback
IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback treats the source of the problem — not the symptoms.
With IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback (MCN), we focus on treating the root cause of issues rather than just addressing the symptoms as many western medical solutions do. The gentle and long-lasting results come from retraining both the brain and central nervous system to reorganize and break free from fixed patterns. This approach sets us apart from traditional neurofeedback methods that solely target brain training. We are Washtenaw County’s only IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback Provider.

What is IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback?
An innovative variant of transcranial neurofeedback, Micro Current Neurofeedback (MCN) does not involve feedback visuals or auditory perceptions that would be used in traditional neurofeedback therapy.
MCN embodies the mind and body, acting as a unique form of therapy, monitoring both the brainwaves and the stimulus (from a tiny device that emits 3 trillionths of a pico watt) to help achieve optimal impact.
This acts similarly to toggling a light-switch on and off in the brain, reminding it to switch off the sympathetic response and return back to a parasympathetic response.
Over time, the mind and body begin to experience a "reboot" as new neural pathways are laid down and neuroplasticity is increased!
In addition, MCN retrains both the brain and central nervous system by allowing it to reorganize itself and shift from fixed patterns. This is also different from traditional neurofeedback which focuses on training the brain.
This innovative, holistic treatment approach is:
510K FDA Registered as a class II medical device
Non-pharmaceutical, drug-free
Non-invasive and safe
Effective, enduring and affordable

Our technicians have completed extensive training through the IASIS Neurofeedback Program.
While seated, five lightweight EEG electrodes will be placed on your head and neck. The areas will be cleaned and then a conductive paste is applied to hold the electrodes in place. All you need to do is simply relax. You will not feel anything from the electrodes. MCN is safe for babies, pregnant women and the elderly.
Your initial intake session is about 60 minutes. Each session thereafter is about 15-30 minutes depending on the specific MCN protocol your technician is using.
MCN has 5 protocol settings and numerous different sensitivity levels that your IASIS Certified Practitioner will select, depending on the treatment plan completed in the initial intake session, as well as how one responds during or after the session.
This is an entirely pain-free and non-invasive treatment with no negative side effects. It does not require a conscious effort from the client to work, all they have to do is let the electrodes do the work for them!
-
Over 85% of clients report positive changes within their first 3-5 treatment sessions. Often mood and condition shifts are experienced, such as increased calm, improved focus, and feeling less reactive.
Because of the cumulative nature of IASIS Micro Current Neurofeedback, some mood and condition shifts may be temporary. As you move through sessions, changes observed generally last longer and longer.
Throughout and after the course of treatment, improvements become more substantial, enduring and life-changing.
Some clients choose to receive “tune-up” sessions following their initial treatment series. They can also be useful during periods of intense stress or health crisis.
Ultimately the benefits and improvements are long lasting and sustainable, which is our goal in client care.
-
Many people ask our studio how this modality is different from traditional bio/neurofeedback. IASIS Neurofeedback is a completely passive experience, unlike traditional bio/neurofeedback and EMDR (Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing).
-
Yes. IASIS Neurofeedback is an FDA registered EEG amplifier and is extremely safe. The amount of electrical current used during your session is 1/100th of a AA battery over 1/100th of a second which is generally unnoticeable to the person receiving the treatment.

Micro Current Neurofeedback provides nervous system support and numerous benefits to clients with any number of neurological issues.
MCN is gentle, non-invasive and highly effective for children and adults of all ages. It treats the root cause of the issues, not a bandaid to the symptom itself.

Within 24 to 48 hours after the session, you will be asked to fill out an observation form where you can report symptoms of reactivity. Examples of reactivity are feeling tired, spacey, headache, “wired”, or a temporary increase of symptoms. Reactivity symptoms are rare, but if you experience them, they are temporary (will likely not last longer than 48 hours), and these symptoms mean that the IASIS Neurofeedback is working!
After a series of sessions allowing your brain to heal itself and improve its neuroplasticity, there are many reported benefits you could experience. Our clients have reported the following benefits from MCN treatment:
» Symptom free of conditions
» Mental and emotional clarity
» Positive mood and attitude
» Deeper, more restorative sleep
» Feeling more present and engaged
» Better handling of stress and stressors
» Improved cognitive function
» Decreased compulsivity and impulsivity
» Greater sense of calm
» Improved attention and focus
» Stimulated sense of creativity
» Increased energy
» Deeper connection to self
» Reduced anxiety and panic
» Improved ability to regulate emotions
» Decreased pain
» Increased trigger tolerance
» Lifted brain fog
» Reduced depression
» Increased motivation
» Greater sense of self-awareness
» Increased ability to handle things
Every client’s experience is different.
-
There are no proven risks or long-term negative effects associated with MCN. You might experience a mild headache, nausea, lightheadedness, or a feeling of being extra energized, but those are rare and when they do occur, only last a few hours after a session. These symptoms do not indicate that your session didn’t work, but rather that your brain is reorganizing itself.
MCN will not make any condition or symptom worse and cannot cause permanent, negative damage to the brain or nervous system because of its gentle nature.
Only frozen, stuck patterns are affected. Any healthy, functional brainwave patterns remain flexible and resilient.
-
Most clients see significant shifts within 3-5 sessions. However, for sustained results and long-term treatment of issues for most individuals, you should expect to require 12-20 sessions.
Everyone is different: some clients may need more or less.
It is recommended that you come in 2-3 times a week for IASIS Neurofeedback sessions at first. Our objective is to bring you enduring and sustainable relief from your symptoms, which typically happens within 12-20 sessions total.
The ideal treatment schedule of twelve (12) initial sessions in twelve (12) weeks is as follows:
2 sessions weekly for 3 weeks
1 session weekly for 3 weeks
3 sessions biweekly
Follow-up IASIS MCN Sessions are available in packages of 6, 12, 20 and 40.
-
Once treatments are complete some clients choose to continue “booster” or “tune up” sessions as needed to maintain results or to support life stressors and/or health concerns. This could be once per year, once per month, or on an occasional basis. Other clients feel complete after treatments and no longer need treatments.
-
Yes, you should maintain your current courses of medication unless advised by your Doctor or practitioners. Medications will not interfere with the effectiveness of MCN. Some clients, however, will observe shifts in their health that require adjustment of current doses. Please seek guidance from your medical team.
