Neurobehavioural therapy can reshape brain networks in functional neuro disorders, says expert

Recent insights into functional neurological disorders (FND) reveal that these conditions, previously regarded as purely psychological, stem from dysfunctions in neural networks influenced by cognitive, emotional, and behavioral factors. An expert in neurobehavioral therapy highlights that this innovative approach can potentially reshape these brain networks, offering new hope for patients suffering from FND. By addressing the underlying neural dynamics rather than solely focusing on psychological symptoms, neurobehavioral therapy aims to improve the overall quality of life for individuals affected by these complex disorders. This shift in understanding emphasizes the importance of integrating psychological and neurological perspectives in treatment, paving the way for more effective therapeutic interventions in the management of FND. As research in this field progresses, there is increasing optimism about the potential for recovery and the restoration of normal brain function in affected individuals.
