Exsurgo
Little founded Exsurgo in 2015 to develop neurological rehabilitation science and technology including EEG Neurofeedback as a drug-free treatment for a range of medical conditions.
EEG Neurofeedback reads electrical activity in the brain to enable to self-regulate brain activity and manage pain. The Axon headset reads and sends brain wave data to a tablet where patients play simples games to help change the electrical signals associated with pain.
