Study on Occipital Cortex Neuroplasticity: Modulations in O1/O2 Alpha Rhythms Following a Biotite Mattress Intervention

POSTER

Abstract

The research studies how long-term sleeping on a Biotite mattress affects baseline brain activity. The influence of using the mattress on neuroplasticity and sleep environment is quantitatively measured and analyzed. In the experiment, human brain activity changes were observed for the control group and the group with symptoms such as cancer and ADHD after they slept on a mattress containing the mineral biotite, which produces low-level electromagnetic fields, for 2 months. EEG data analysis showed that brainwave patterns underwent specific changes after the prolonged exposure period. The EEG analysis shows that alpha and beta power increase in the O1 and O2 channels of the occipital cortex after sixty days of biotite exposure. Specifically, the occipital cortex, which controls visual processing, showed substantial growth in alpha wave power after the extended exposure. The biotite mattress created a major shift toward mental serenity because alpha wave patterns in the occipital cortex indicate wakeful relaxation and meditative states. Beta wave power showed a moderate increase, which suggests the brain maintained alertness while remaining calm because beta waves are associated with focused mental processing.

The topographic analysis showed that alpha activity reached its peak in the occipital lobes, which matches established neurophysiological models that link dominant occipital alpha rhythms to visual rest and internalized attention. The EEG results demonstrate that neural stability receives a general improvement. The biotite mattress produces low-intensity electromagnetic fields, which, according to the study results, lead to nervous system equilibrium. The neurophysiological environment created by this mechanism enables cognitive well-being and relaxation during extended periods of use through a non-invasive method that enhances restorative sleep and mental calm.
