This article examines the effectiveness of neurofeedback therapy in treating Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder (PTSD). By using a systematic review and meta-analysis of existing studies, we assessed the impact of neurofeedback on symptom reduction in PTSD patients. Results indicate that neurofeedback can significantly reduce PTSD symptoms, offering an alternative therapeutic pathway for individuals who may not respond to traditional treatments. This study discusses potential mechanisms, reviews different neurofeedback protocols, and provides recommendations for clinicians considering this approach.
