Neurofeedback equipment for stress related illness

    I'm interested in knowing if anyone is aware of neurofeedback equipment for stress analysis.

    What I have in mind is something that would give, say, a high pitched sound when a high level of brain activity is present, reducing to a low frequency sound in a more relaxed state.

    Aural feedback would be the ideal. However, on screen feedback might also be acceptable - as long as it didn't make matters worse! (I suffer from migraines and have to watch how much time I spend in front of computers)

    I vaguely recall seeing such a battery operated, portable device years ago. But, I can't find one anywhere.

    I guess my ideal would be a device I could use with a pair of earphones and teach myself to relax by lowering the frequency of the feedback tone.

    I do transcendental meditation and I find it excellent. But, I would like to ally it to a more scientific and proactive approach.

    Any feedback (pun intended) appreciated!

    Thanks.

    Ps. Moderator, I'm assuming that migraine qualifies as long term illness. If not, please move post to appropriate forum.
