Alpha-Theta training designed by Dr. Knut Berndorfer, includes a standardized 33-minute Alpha-Theta session (script) and a number of other display screens. Alpha is a relaxed concentrated state of mind typical of a brain wave around 7 cycles/second (7 Hz). It allows total concentration and synchronization of the left and right brains. It is the state measured during reading, listening and other forms of information input.Theta is a more restful state of mind typical of a brain wave around 3 cycles/second (3 Hz). These waves are stronger during memorization, creativity and problem solving. An alpha-theta brainwave biofeedfack training program was applied as a novel treatment technique for chronic alcoholics. Following a temperature biofeedback pretraining phase, experimental subjects completed 15 30-min sessions of alpha-theta biofeedback training. Compared to a nonalcoholic control group and a traditionally treated alcoholic control group, alcoholics receiving brainwave training (BWT) showed significant increases in percentages of EEG record in alpha and theta rhythms, and increased alpha rhythm amplitudes.
