San Diego, CA – June 25, 2025 — Healthy Within Neurofeedback Center is proud to highlight the critical role of neuroinflammation in mental health, and how its signature, non-invasive neurofeedback therapy helps reduce inflammation to treat conditions like ADHD, depression, anxiety, and tics.
“Think of neuroinflammation like a hidden smoldering fire in the brain,” explains Dr. Divya Kakaiya, founder and clinical psychologist at Healthy Within. “Even low-grade inflammation disrupts focus, mood regulation, and impulse control. Neurofeedback trains the brain to cool that fire, not with medication, but through self-regulation.”
Science-Backed Inflammation Reduction
- A 2024 pilot study with analog astronauts showed that daily EEG neurofeedback helped lower blood markers of inflammation (C-reactive protein) following isolation stress, pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov+10pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov+10arxiv.org+10—suggesting neurofeedback can counteract stress-induced neuroinflammation.
- A VA study published April 22, 2025, found infra-low frequency neurofeedback significantly alleviated post-concussive symptoms—chronic headaches, sleep disruption, and attention issues—linked to lingering inflammation after traumatic brain injury research.va.gov.
- A 2024 meta-analysis of 22 neurofeedback trials for depression reported significant symptom relief and improved neuropsychological functioning—likely tied to reduced brain inflammatory processes integralneurotherapy.com.
These findings align with broad research showing that chronic brain inflammation drives conditions like depression, anxiety, ADHD, and tics. One review explains how inflammatory cytokines (e.g., IL‑6, TNF‑α) impair neurotransmission and neuroplasticity, worsening mental health symptoms.
How Healthy Within Integrates This Science
- Brain Mapping (QEEG): Our detailed scans identify regions showing dysregulation, often associated with inflammation.
- Customized Neurofeedback Protocols: We tailor every program, whether it’s slow-wave alpha training for anxiety or infra-low frequency work for concussion recovery.
- Monitoring & Results: We track cognitive and emotional gains alongside reduced inflammatory markers when feasible.
Conditions Addressed
Condition | Typical Dysregulation | Neurofeedback Focus |
ADHD | Underactive frontal circuits | Sensorimotor or fMRI-based upregulation |
Depression | Overactive affective centers | Amygdala and connectivity-based regulation |
Anxiety | Hyperactive limbic patterns | Alpha/theta training for calming |
Tics/OCD | Rigid over-looping networks | Network connectivity regulation |
Why This Matters?
Reducing brain inflammation helps clients:
- Sharpen focus and executive function
- Lift mood and emotional resilience
- Restore sleep, decrease impulsivity, and compulsivity
- Rely less on medication and feel empowered through self‑regulation
“Neurofeedback helps the brain shift from an inflamed, survival‐mode state into one of calm, balance, and healthy connectivity,” says Dr. Kakaiya. “Clients aren’t just treating symptoms—they’re healing brain circuitry.”
