First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 16, 2026 · Updated 19 times

Summary

This study tests whether neurofeedback training can help people with chemotherapy-induced peripheral neuropathy change their own brain waves to reduce pain and improve quality of life. About 91 adults with moderate to severe nerve pain will be randomly assigned to active, deactivated, or no neurofeedback sessions. The goal is to see if this non-invasive approach offers a drug-free way to manage persistent nerve symptoms.
