The first Neurofeedback experiment was conducted in 1965 on cats. It was in 1971 that Neurofeedback was introduced to humans. The first pathology targeted was epilepsy. Studies showed that 65% of seizures could be reduced following Neurofeedback training.

It was an American researcher named Barry Sterman who discovered the first use of Neurofeedback in 1965. Subsequently, Joel Lubar contributed greatly to the development of this approach in the 1970s.

Neurofeedback works on the principle of reward (operant conditioning). The electrode headset captures brain activity in real time. When the brain stimulates the target area, we give a reward (a video plays). When it stops, the reward is removed.
