Brain Mapping and Neurotherapy

Rustam Yumash

Rustam is an experienced practitioner of brain-based therapies, with a focus on alternative and natural approaches. After completing medical school in his hometown of Ufa, located in the Bashkortostan Republic near the South Ural Mountains, Rustam began his career in Neurology. However, it was his own experience with a cerebral vascular inflammatory condition and intensive headaches that ignited his passion for brain science.

Rustam believes that many health conditions are related to multiple factors and must be addressed biologically, psychologically, and socially. He has developed expertise in working with unconscious emotional and thought patterns that are not easily accessible through talk therapy. Rustam incorporates heart rate variability biofeedback, breathing techniques, and deep integrative psychotherapy courses into his approach, which enables him to unlock proper breathing and achieve deep states of relaxation.

Over the last 12 years, Rustam has mastered the Infra Low Frequency Neurofeedback developed by Sue and Sigfried Othmers. This unique methodology has proven effective in balancing, stabilising, and calming the brain. Rustam’s favourite therapeutic modalities include meditation, breathwork, and neurotherapy or neuromodulation. He has also been experimenting with Near Infra-red light or Photobiomodulation over the last 8 years and believes it is an important addition to brain therapies.

Rustam has over 20 years of experience in implementing electroencephalography (EEG) in clinical work in Australia, which includes Quantitative Electroencephalography and Event-Related Potential. He worked under the mentoring of prominent experts, such as Prof. Juri Kropotov from the Human Brain Institute, to help many clinics adopt this advanced methodology. Rustam has set up the Brain Mind & Memory Institute and organised several workshops, webinars, and conferences dedicated to the field.

Rustam is a fellow member of the Applied Neuroscience Society of Australasia and actively supports the society’s mission to promote Neuromodulation methods in mental health. In his spare time, Rustam enjoys being in natural surroundings and the bush. He has found long meditation retreats helpful for his spiritual and physical well-being and practices Buddhist insight meditation with a focus on mindfulness and loving kindness
