I’m looking into neurofeedback for ADHD/burnout symptoms, but the lack of standardization is frustrating. Every center I call gives the same vague “rewiring the brain” explanation, but when I ask about their assessment process or protocols, the answers get fuzzy.

Some places do a full 19-channel qEEG map before starting. Others just put a few sensors on during the first visit and call that an assessment. Pricing is also all over the place, and a lot of clinics push big 20-30 session packages before I even understand what they’re measuring.

For people who have done neurofeedback, how did you screen providers?

Did you look for qEEG?
Did they explain why they chose a protocol?
Did they track raw data or progress in a way you could understand?
Did they charge per session or only sell packages?

I’m not against trying it. I just want to avoid paying wellness-spa prices for something that isn’t very individualized.

i’m a bartender and realtor, so i’m on my feet a lot and using my arms all day. lately i’ve been waking up with sharp pain in my right shoulder, and it’s starting to affect normal stuff like driving, carrying things, and getting through a shift.

i’ve heard people talk about shockwave therapy, but i also keep hearing it’s not very useful unless it’s combined with actual rehab/strength work. has anyone in the dallas/richardson area found a place that does both?

i don’t want to just lie on a table and get zapped. i’m trying to find someone who can actually explain what’s going on, use the right treatment if needed, and give me a plan that helps long-term. any advice on what to look for in a clinic?
