Q.New In-Home Treatment Program for Depression. . . ?

A.has developed an innovative program for treating patients suffering from Depression in their own homes under daily medical supervision. The Alexandria Medical Institute is a world leader in the use of NeuroBioFeedback (NBF) techniques in treating various disorders, some of which were thought to be hopeless, including Depression. In fact, the Institute has had remarkable success with Depression, even to the point that many patients find that they need less, or no medication after treatment. NeuroBioFeedback makes use of the brain's capacity to regulate all aspects of your being - physical and mental. It's non-invasive, voluntary and doesn't use any drugs. However, it requires frequency and repetition to work. In the past, this meant outpatient treatment at a medical facility. But now, through the use of cutting-edge technology - telemedicine - Alexandria Institute patients are able to conduct treatment sessions at home with equipment and training from the Institute. These patients receive the same medical precision patients receive on-site, including supervision by Dr. Rima Laibow, the world's leading expert on NBF. At-home patients are evaluated at the Institute and are trained there in use of the equipment. The Institute provides all equipment including a computer, a fax machine and special NBF treatment devices. When home treatment starts, patients fax results of each session to Dr. Laibow who reviews them and, if necessary, make treatment adjustments. Weekly results are downloaded from the computer and transmitted to Dr. Laibow for review. Again, if necessary, she will recommend changes in treatment protocols.
