What is IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback?

IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback is a drug-free, scientifically supported medical technology that helps alleviate a wide range of symptoms related to brain-based disorders in patients of all ages.

The technology works through a specialized software system connected to small EEG leads, which are gently placed on specific areas of the scalp. These leads monitor the brain’s electrical activity in real time.

As the system reads brainwave patterns, it delivers an ultra-low electrical pulse, so subtle it's not felt by the patient. Despite its gentleness, this microcurrent plays a powerful role in disrupting stuck patterns and helping the brain shift out of chronic “fight-or-flight” mode.

By calming the nervous system and encouraging balance, MCN creates an ideal environment for the brain to reset, self-regulate, and begin healing naturally, supporting improved mood, focus, sleep, and overall well-being.

How does IASIS MCN Work?

Under the care of a trained provider, IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback (MCN) uses an FDA-registered device that measures electrical activity from the scalp using small electrodes. Based on these readings, it delivers a gentle, microcurrent electrical stimulation directly to the nervous system.

This subtle stimulation helps disrupt and release stuck or unhealthy brainwave patterns—a process known as “disentrainment.” Healthy patterns remain untouched, while dysfunctional ones are gently shifted, allowing the brain to move into a more balanced and self-regulating state. The result is improved brain performance and enhanced nervous system function, creating a powerful foundation for long-term healing.

As part of this process, MCN can also help stimulate and reopen blocked neural pathways, encouraging the brain to detoxify built-up byproducts such as stress hormones. Over time, stress, trauma, and chronic emotional strain cause these substances to accumulate, contributing to symptoms like brain fog, difficulty concentrating, memory loss, anxiety, depression, irritability, agitation, PTSD, and more.

By supporting the nervous system’s return to a parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) state and reducing chronic overactivation of the sympathetic (fight-or-flight) response, MCN helps relieve these symptoms—without medication or conscious effort.

Unlike traditional neurofeedback, talk therapy, or medication, IASIS MCN produces measurable shifts in brainwave activity passively, making it a gentle yet effective option for both children and adults.

  • IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback (MCN) helps to regulate and heal the central nervous system, which plays a key role in both mental and physical health. Because of this, MCN may offer relief for a wide range of conditions that stem from nervous system dysregulation.

    MCN has been reported to support improvements in:

    • Immune system function

    • Autoimmune disorders

    • Overall energy levels

    • Obsessive Compulsive Disorder (OCD)

    • Autism (in children and young adults)

    • Addictions

    • High blood pressure

    • ADD/ADHD

    • Anxiety

    • Bipolar disorder

    • PTSD

    • Traumatic brain injury (TBI)

    • Concussions

    • Fibromyalgia

    • Chronic fatigue

    • Stroke recovery

    • Seizures

    • Memory loss

    • Migraines

    • Insomnia

    • Depression

    • Anger and irritability

    …and more.

    By calming the nervous system, encouraging neuroplasticity, and supporting brainwave balance, MCN creates the ideal conditions for healing, without the use of medication.

  • IASIS Microcurrent Neurofeedback (MCN) is safe for both children and adults, and is used to support individuals facing a wide range of physical and emotional challenges—as well as those simply looking to optimize brain performance for work, school, or athletics.

    There are currently no known contraindications for IASIS MCN, including for individuals with a history of seizures, brain aneurysms, or strokes. While the treatment is considered safe for all, it's important to share your full health history with one of our certified IASIS Certified Providers (ICP) before beginning care.

    Whether you're seeking relief from chronic symptoms or aiming to perform at your best, IASIS MCN offers a gentle, drug-free path to support your brain and nervous system.
