HR1067: HR1067 Neurotherapy Month; January and August 2026; recognize

This resolution does not change any Georgia law. It is a ceremonial statement from the House of Representatives recognizing January and August 2026 as Neurotherapy Month. The resolution describes neurotherapy, including biofeedback, neurofeedback, and quantitative electroencephalography (qEEG), as a non-invasive, drug-free approach that can help with conditions such as anxiety, depression, ADHD, PTSD, traumatic brain injury, sleep disorders, and epilepsy. The resolution notes that Georgia has a growing network of clinics and researchers in this field and that neurotherapy may be especially useful in rural or underserved areas with limited access to psychiatric care. It directs the Clerk of the House to make copies available to the public and press, but it creates no new programs, funding, or legal requirements.

• Formally recognizes January and August 2026 as Neurotherapy Month through a House resolution.
• Describes neurotherapy modalities such as biofeedback, neurofeedback, and qEEG as evidence-based tools recognized by professional psychological associations.
• Directs the Clerk of the House of Representatives to distribute copies of the resolution to the public and press.
• Creates no funding, regulatory changes, or legal requirements, since it is a symbolic resolution rather than a law.

The resolution primarily affects public awareness rather than any legal obligations. It references veterans, children, adolescents, people with neurological or emotional disorders, athletes, mental health professionals, and rural and underserved communities as groups that could benefit from neurotherapy services.

Because this is a ceremonial resolution, it does not create new rights, funding, or rules. Its practical effect is to raise public awareness about neurotherapy as a treatment option, which could influence public discussion but does not change how these therapies are regulated or paid for in Georgia.

• The resolution's whereas clauses describe biofeedback, neurofeedback, and qEEG as scientifically grounded, non-invasive, drug-free approaches to mental and neurological health.
• The resolving clause formally states that the House recognizes January and August 2026 as Neurotherapy Month.
• A further resolved clause directs the Clerk of the House to prepare copies of the resolution for distribution to the public and the press.
