### Scientific research results:
Mechanism of action
During neurofeedback sessions, you train your brain's ability to:
1. **Regulate cortical activity** - normalize excessive activation
2. **Improve blood flow** - better brain circulation
3. **Stabilize the autonomic nervous system** - reduce hyperreactivity
4. **Increase pain threshold** - less sensitivity to triggers
