Revolutionary EEG-Based Treatment Promises Hope for Neurological and Psychiatric Patients
Udaipur, April 5, 2025 — In a groundbreaking development for mental healthcare in Rajasthan, the Pacific Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS), Udaipur has inaugurated an Advanced Neurobiofeedback Therapy Center integrating Electroencephalogram (EEG) and Brain-Computer Interface technologies. The launch marks a historic leap in cognitive neuroscience and psychiatric care in India.
The therapy was formally unveiled by PIMS Chairman Ashish Agarwal and Managing Director Naman Agarwal. Distinguished guests at the event included Prof. Anees Jukkurwala, Head of Neurology, Geetanjali Medical College, and Prof. Sushil Khera, one of Rajasthan’s most senior psychiatrists.
Led by Harvard-Trained Expert
Heading this pioneering initiative is Prof. Praveen Khairkar, who brings global expertise from Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Harvard Medical School. His leadership aims to establish a robust platform for transformative mental health treatment using neurotechnology.
First-of-Its-Kind Therapy in Rajasthan
This is the first time such a therapy has been made available in Rajasthan. The Neurobiofeedback system empowers individuals to monitor and train their brainwave patterns, helping improve emotional regulation, cognitive function, and behavioral control.
The therapy has shown significant effectiveness in managing:
-
Neurological and psychiatric disorders: ADHD, depression, Parkinson’s, dyslexia, stroke rehabilitation
-
Pain and stress-related disorders: migraine, chronic pain syndromes, exam anxiety
-
Women’s health: PMDD, infertility, endometriosis
-
Lifestyle-related disorders: addiction, constipation
What is Neurobiofeedback Therapy?
Neurobiofeedback is a non-invasive technique that enables patients to visualize and control brain activity in real time through EEG and brain-computer interfaces. By analyzing brainwave patterns, patients learn to enhance focus, reduce stress, and manage mental disorders more effectively.
Global Collaboration and Research Vision
PIMS is set to collaborate with leading global institutions such as BrainLab Atlanta and the Schwartz Center, California, to push the boundaries of neurocognitive research and therapy. This newly inaugurated lab marks the dawn of a new era in cognitive neuroscience, promising life-changing outcomes for those battling complex neuropsychiatric conditions.
