Brainwave Optimization (High-resolution, Relational, Resonance-based Electroencephalic Mirroring): A Non-invasive Technology for Neuro-oscillatory Calibration (2011)

The purpose of this paper is to describe technical and theoretical aspects of Brainwave Optimization™, also known as High-resolution, Relational, Resonance-based Electroencephalic Mirroring™ (HIRREM™). HIRREM is an innovative, non-invasive approach to facilitating greater self-regulatory capacity for, by and through the human brain. The approach may be conceived as a high-resolution electronic mirror that reflects the brain’s activity back to itself in real-time.

Similarities and Differences Between Brainwave Optimization (HIRREM) and Electroencephalographic Biofeedback (2011)

In terms of technological lineage, Brainwave Optimization™ (more formally known as High-resolution, Relational, Resonance-based Electroencephalic Mirroring or HIRREM) can be considered as an advance on the methodology of electroencephalographic biofeedback (also known as “EEG biofeedback” or “neurofeedback.”) For purposes of this discussion, we will generally refer to it as “EEG biofeedback.”

Overcoming Depression Through Brainwave Optimization

Vijendra K. Singh and Lee Gerdes performed a study of four subjects who were exhibiting symptoms of major depressive disorder. The goal of the study was to overcome the clients' depression, alleviate anxiety, and achieve physical health and balance, among other things. Following individual assessments, Dr. Singh and Mr. Gerdes administered Brainwave Optimization™, resulting in positive responses from all of the subjects. All of the subjects improved their test scores for depression and anxiety, and showed reductions in depressive tendencies, anxiety, substance abuse, and sleep deprivation.

Brainwave Optimization in Neurodegenerative Disease

Lee Gerdes and Vijendra K. Singh performed a preliminary study on cognition of six patients with Alzheimer's disease or Parkinson's disease. After assesing each client's brain, Mr. Gerdes and Dr. Singh used Brainwave Optimzation, to correct patients' brain imbalances over the course of 10-15 personalized individual sessions. All of the subjects showed improved neurological and behavioral characteristics, including improved cognitive functions.

Neurorehabilitation of Post-Traumatic Stress and Depressive Behaviors By Brainwave Optimization

Vijendra K. Singh and Lee Gerdes conducted a study in which clients with symptoms of PTSD, depression, and anxiety experienced Brainwave Optimization, a technology that optimizes brainwaves in real-time to achieve balance and harmony in the brain. After administering Brainwave Optimization over the course of several personalized sessions, Dr. Singh and Mr. Gerdes observed alleviation of depressive and anxiety tendencies and noticeable improvements in quality of life in all of the clients. As a result, they recommend Brainwave Optimization as a viable approach to help with PTSD.

Evidence Suggests a Pathogenic Role of Brain Autoimmunity in Central Nervous System Diseases

Vijendra K. Singh, Ph.D., Director of Research at Brain State Technologies, discusses the importance of recognizing neurological diseases and mental illnesses, such as autism spectrum disorders and Alzheimer's disease, as autoimmune diseases. Dr. Singh argues that the patient population with these brain diseases "must be included in all future epidemiological studies" in order to get the full picture of autoimmune diseases' impact on human health.
