ADHD

A child’s mind is steeped in possibility, creativity, curiosity and wonder, but when he starts showing signs of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) (or a learning challenge — or both) — what then?

ADHD can affect a child’s success at school, as well as, their relationships.  

A dysregulated brain may be excessively active when it should be calm or under-stimulated when it should be focused.  Most of the ways in which the brain gets off track or becomes dysregulated are short lived, and the brain autocorrects over a short time.  But, when it doesn’t…. that can lead to dysfunctional brain wave states and subsequent undesired symptoms and emotional states related to ADHD.

Neurofeedback can help people with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) to retrain their brain and recover optimum neural functioning. In other words, focus improves and impulsivity, distractibility, and hyperactivity diminish.

Most importantly, Neurofeedback is drug free, non-invasive and fun to do.  

Kids

• Alarming statistic time: 70% or more of children with ADHD grow up to be adults with ADHD.
• The average age of children diagnosed with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is 7.
• In 2012, The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) upgraded neurofeedback’s effectiveness to Level One — the same rating given to medications for ADHD.
• According to the AAP, neurofeedback is as effective as medication for addressing symptoms related to ADHD. Conclusion from Trial Study: “Neurofeedback participants made more prompt and greater improvements in ADHD symptoms, which were sustained at the 6-month follow-up, than did CT participants or those in the control group. This finding suggests that neurofeedback is a promising attention training treatment for children with ADHD.”  PubMed.Gov
