A RESOLUTION
Recognizing January and August 2026 as Neurotherapy Month; and for other purposes.
WHEREAS, neurotherapy, including modalities such as biofeedback, neurofeedback,
quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), and psychophysiological assessments,
constitutes a scientifically grounded, non-invasive, and drug-free approach to supporting
mental, emotional, cognitive, and neurological health; and
WHEREAS, biofeedback and neurofeedback are evidence-based modalities recognized by
the American Psychological Association (APA), the Association for Applied
Psychophysiology and Biofeedback (AAPB), and the International Society for
Neuroregulation & Research (ISNR) with clinical applications for anxiety, depression,
ADHD, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, sleep disorders, substance use, epilepsy, learning
disabilities, and more; and
WHEREAS, thousands of Georgians, particularly veterans, children, adolescents, and
individuals with neurological or emotional disorders, stand to benefit from increased access
to neurotherapy and neuroregulation services that support nervous system resilience and
self-regulation; and
WHEREAS, neurotherapy can help optimize both sports performance and leadership
capabilities, with varied effectiveness between individuals and contexts; and
WHEREAS, neurotherapy training helps athletes regulate their brain activity to improve
focus, reduce anxiety, and more consistently enter flow states; and
WHEREAS, top athletes such as Olympic shooters, elite gymnasts, and even NFL teams
have used neurofeedback for peak mental performance; and
WHEREAS, in leadership and executive performance, neurotherapy can sharpen cognitive
and emotional skills that are key to effective decision-making, executive function, creative
thinking, and interpersonal effectiveness; and
WHEREAS, Georgia is home to a growing network of interdisciplinary clinics, licensed
mental health professionals, certified neurofeedback providers, and academic researchers
advancing the field of psychophysiology and integrative neurotherapy; and
WHEREAS, neurotherapy is particularly impactful in underserved and rural communities
where access to psychiatric medications or traditional mental health services may be limited,
offering a safe, cost-effective complement or alternative to conventional approaches; and
WHEREAS, promoting Neurotherapy Month during August and January serves to raise
awareness, encourage preventative and rehabilitative brain health practices, and support
ongoing discussions around integrative, data-driven, and accessible mental health care.
