What is an EEG machine?
An EEG or what is called an ELECTROENCEPHALOGRAPH. This is a scientific medical and mental device that monitors brainwave frequency changes that take place while a person is going into E.R.T. and relaxation.
What do doctors and psychologists use EEG Brainwave monitoring devices for?
Doctors have used it to monitor epileptic seizures in patients as well as neurological disorders in the brain. It is also currently being used by various psychologists in the areas of attention deficit disorder, by-polar disorder, focus and concentration, hypertension, anxiety, sleep problems, depression, head aches, and migraines, chronic pain, compulsive behavior, mood swings, stroke, traumatic brain injury, and autism, as well in many other areas that affect physical and emotional well being.
What other things can EEG machines monitor?
Some EEG monitors can also monitor muscle tension and physiological changes in our autonomic system. They can also monitor the amplitude or what might be called the dynamic levels of each state of brainwave frequencies. Think of these brainwave frequencies as having an intensity or volume level that can be in a high dynamic state or in a low dynamic state, just like the volume of your television set on a certain channel being low or loud.
Can you tell if a person is in Hypnosis when you use an EEG Brainwave Machine?
When you conduct scientific clinical Hypnosis while using an EEG device on your client, you will be able to monitor the various levels of brainwave frequencies from Beta down to Delta. As most hypnotherapists know, hypnosis levels can be described as light, medium, and deep. With science we know that the hypnotic states relate directly to brainwave states. When you utilize the EEG Neurofeedback technology, you can scientifically see your client going into states of “Alpha", "Theta", and "Delta”, and these three levels can be considered states or depths of Hypnosis.
