Sumario:Neurofeedback may enhance compensatory brain mechanisms. EEG‐based sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback training was suggested to be beneficial in Parkinson's disease. In a placebo‐controlled study in parkinsonian nonhuman primates we here show that sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback training reduces MPTP‐induced parkinsonian symptoms and both ON and OFF scores during classical L‐DOPA treatment. Our findings encourage further development of sensorimotor rhythm neurofeedback training as adjunct therapy for Parkinson's disease which might help reduce L‐DOPA‐induced side effects.
