SYSTEMS AND METHODS FOR NEURO-EEG SYNCHRONIZATION THERAPY
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A method comprising:
- (a) adjusting output of a magnetic field for influencing at least one of an intrinsic frequency of a specified EEG band of a subject toward a pre-selected intrinsic frequency of the specified EEG band and a Q-factor of an intrinsic frequency within a specified EEG band of a subject toward a pre-selected Q-factor and(b) applying said magnetic field close to a head of the subject;
wherein the pre-selected intrinsic frequency is a frequency that increases blood flow in the cortex of the subject, and wherein the pre-selected Q-factor is a Q-factor that increases blood flow in the cortex of the subject.

Abstract
Described are methods, devices, and systems for a novel, inexpensive, easy to use therapy for a number of disorders. Described are methods and devices to treat disorders that involves no medication. Methods and devices described herein use alternating magnetic fields to gently “tune” the brain and affect mood, focus, and cognition of subjects.

2. A method comprising:
-
(a) adjusting output of a magnetic field for influencing an intrinsic frequency of a specified EEG band of a subject toward a pre-selected intrinsic frequency of the specified EEG band; and (b) applying said magnetic field close to a head of the subject; wherein the pre-selected intrinsic frequency is a frequency that decreases blood flow in a lower region of the brain of the subject.

12. A system comprising:
- a means for applying a magnetic field to a head of a subject;
whereby the means for applying the magnetic field is capable of influencing at least one of;
(a) an intrinsic frequency of a brain of the subject within a specified EEG band;
(b) a Q-factor of an intrinsic frequency of the brain of the subject within a specified EEG band;
(c) a coherence of intrinsic frequencies among multiple sites in the brain of the subject within a specified EEG band; and
(d) a EEG phase between two sites in the brain of the subject of a specified EEG frequency, and a device capable of determining the blood flow of at least one of the cortex and a lower region of the brain.
- a means for applying a magnetic field to a head of a subject;
- 14. The system of claim 14, wherein the magnetic field is generated by movement of at least one permanent magnet.
