not the same but in the same "family". I do it thru my counselor who is trained to do it. She is a licensed clinical social worker. You sit in front of a laptop with pictures, hooked up to electrodes on your head. ALL OUTPUT!! no input. It basically trains your brain to work more efficiently. Those of us with fibro..our brains process pain differently than the average person. I knew with my first session that it was helping. I had 6 sessions in 2 months. Have had "tuneups" about 4 times since. I feel better than I have in 10 years. I do a job that requires a lot of lifting and it is no problem. Life is good. I know different things work for different people...but what do you have to lose? lol Good luck.
