ABSTRACT:
The present invention provides a neurodiagnostic method for chronic fatigue syndrome. Brain waves of a patient are evaluated for slow wave activity. Phase reversal in the delta wave band may be a diagnostic marker. The present invention also provides a biofeedback-based, treatment method for chronic fatigue syndrome. The patient is trained to decrease slow wave wave activity.
