  related to the energetic,emotional 
  activation of a traumatic emotionally 
  charged issue within the brain, most likely 
  in the amygdala, the hippocampus, or the 
  orbitofrontal cortex of the limbic system. 
  Located by eye position, paired with 
  externally observed and internally 
  experienced reflexive responses, a Brainspot 
  is actually a physiological subsystem holding 
  emotional experience in memory form.

  Brainspotting is a powerful, focused 
  treatment method developed by David 
  Grand that works by identifying, processing 
  and releasing core neurophysiological 
  sources of emotional/body pain, trauma, 
  dissociation and a variety of other 
  challenging symptoms. Brainspotting is a 
  simultaneous form of diagnosis and 
  treatment, enhanced with Biolateral sound, 
  which is deep, direct, and powerful yet 
  focused and containing. 
  It is theorized that Brainspotting taps 
  into and harnesses the body’s innate 
  self-scanning capacity to process and 
  release focused areas (systems) which are 
  in frozen primitive survival modes. This may 
  also explain the ability of Brainspotting to 
  often reduce and eliminate body pain and 
  tension associated with physical conditions.
