rEEG does sound interesting. I've been reading quite a bit about it lately, because a woman I know has anorexia, and the treatments she's received in the past year (antidepressants, psychotherapy, group therapy) have failed completely. Anorexia is one of the most difficult psychiatric disorders to treat. Standard treatments help fewer than 20% of sufferers. I found this claim that rEEG helped 80% of those with anorexia:
Referenced EEG has been standard practice at the Monte Nido Treatment Center, a residential program in California for patients with Eating Disorders. Over 150 patients at Monte Nido have utilized an rEEG to determine medication sensitivities. In a controlled trial of over eighty patients treated at Monte Nido, 80% of Anorexia Nervosa patients responded positively to the medications prescribed based on Referenced EEG results.
