One of the aims of therapy is to rewire the brain to form new neural networks enhancing one's health. Here's some footage and an explanation that shows and describes this process.

When a neuron is activated, it sends an electrical signal down its axon, leading to the release of neurotransmitters into the synaptic gap. These molecules then bind to receptors on the adjacent neuron, triggering a response that continues the signal transmission.

This is crucial for learning, memory formation, and the brain’s ability to adapt to new information or recover from injury. The formation of new synapses, or synaptogenesis, involves not just neurotransmitter release but also the physical growth and branching of neuronal structures. This footage captures just one part of the complex and fascinating process by which our brains continuously rewire themselves in response to our experiences.
