Academic Discussion on Neurofeedback and Parkinsons Disease: Neurofeedback is an attractive tool for any disorder in which imbalance between neural circuits is suspected. In the present proof-of-principle study, patients who received neurofeedback successfully upregulated a higher cortical motor area and concomitantly influenced activity in basal ganglia circuits implicated in PD. This training resulted in significant and clinically relevant improvement of motor functions.
