Neurofeedback has helped thousands of children with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD), commonly called attention deficit disorder (ADD). If you’re concerned about your child taking the stimulant medications normally prescribed for ADHD, find out how Neurofeedback can help solve the problems without long-term medication.
Neurofeedback is based on a simple principle. “The brain emits different types of waves, depending on whether we are in a focused state or day-dreaming,” explains Siegfried Othmer, Ph.D., chief scientist at the EEG Institute in Woodland Hills, California. The goal of neurofeedback for ADHD is to teach the patient to produce the brain-wave patterns associated with focus. The end result is that some symptoms of ADHD, including impulsivity, distractibility, and acting out, diminish.
