9 Theta waves are thought to improve learning, since children,
who have stronger theta waves, and remain in this state for a
longer period of time than adults, usually learn faster than adults
10 Some use them for lucid dreaming and even for attempting out-of-body
experiences, astral projection, and psychokinesis
11 Alpha-theta brainwave training has also been used successfully for
the treatment of addictions
12 It has been used for the recovery of repressed memories
13 An uncontrolled pilot study of Delta binaural beat technology over
60 days has shown positive effect on self-reported psychologic
measures, especially anxiety..decrease in insulin-like growth factor-1 and
dopamine[1] and has been successfully shown to decrease mild anxiety
14 In more recent times has come more understanding of the role of theta
brain waves in behavioural learning.
15 The presence of theta patterns in the brain has been associated with increased
receptivity for learning and decreased filtering by the left
hemisphere.
16 Based on the association between theta activity (4–7 Hz) and working memory
performance, biofeedback training suggests that normal healthy
individuals can learn to increase a specific component of their EEG activity,
and that such enhanced activity may facilitate a working memory task and to a
lesser extent focused attention
17 Useful in various psychiatric disorders ..Anxiety Disorders, Depression & Bipolar
disorders ,OCD ..etc
