Neurofeedback may be able to change the way neurons in the brain connect (neural networks) and improve the symptoms of autism.
Many studies have noted that the brains of children with autism seem larger. The different structures in the brain also seem to be different in people with autism. Other studies have noted that people with autism tend to have lower levels of brain activity as measured by oxygen levels in the brain. This study describes the theory that suggests that autism is the result of poor neural networks in the brain. These networks can be seen and measured using electroencephalography (EEG).
