Brain mapping consists of many techniques and technologies used to scan and map electrical activity in the brain. Tools used in brain mapping can study the structure of the brain or overall brain function through examining the physical layout of the brain or measuring electrical activity and where it takes place within brain tissue.

Different Types of Brain Scans

Physicians prescribe a variety of brain scan techniques, MRIs chief among them. MRI scans are not the only type of brain scan performed, however, but they are the most well known. MRIs are non-invasive and provide a wealth of information for medical professionals. 

Medical doctors may also choose to use electroencephalography (EEG) scans, which involve using metal sensors and a cap on the head to measure electrical activity in the brain. 

EEG and/or qEEG treatments are very useful for physicians and psychologists looking to understand how a patient’s brain functions at a precise level. This information, in turn, allows for the development of personalized and effective treatment plans for things like addictions, neurological disorders, and more. 

What Can Brain Mapping Help With?

Memory. Memories can be mapped or detected through electrical scans, such as EEG scans. Through these techniques, client brains can be studied to detect where specific memories are stored, how the brain recalls different memories, and what effect those memories have on other neurological processes.

Aging. Brain mapping can be used to detect the effects of aging in the mind, either structurally or functionally, as well as to detect how drugs or other substances may induce premature aging and brain tissue. 

Learning. Psychologists and physicians can use brain mapping to determine how a client learns and where information is stored. It can also be used to detect whether there are learning impediments due to neurological conditions like addictions, cognitive inflexibility, and so on. 

Effects of Drugs. Brain mapping can be used to detect the effects of aging in the mind, either structurally or functionally, as well as to detect how drugs or other substances may induce premature aging and brain tissue.

What Our Clients Are Saying

Julia W

Teachers made huge comments on his math skills and behavior. I also saw this at home with understanding of what I said to him registering more with him. I saw this in his eyes: recognition. Fewer outbursts of anger.

Anita M

I am extremely happy with my son’s outcomes and feel very fortunate to have encountered Dr. Bonesteel early in my child’s life. This method has dramatically changed his ability to focus and take initiative. I feel confident that my son’s life has been dramatically enhanced. I can’t express my appreciation fully in words.

Mary B

Dr. Bonesteel has masterfully, compassionately, and extremely kindly helped me navigate through a history of childhood and marital abuse, a child with twenty years of struggle with life-threatening physical and emotional illness, extended family discord, and disharmony with my child with severe depression. I am blessed to have found Neurohealth Associates.
