We went to a neurotherapist who works with all people with adhd and several other conditions including depression, tics, anxiety, asd and other disorders. Neurotherapy works on correcting your own brainwaves, via a computer. Watching your own brainwaves on a computer in the form of a game, the games is played by brainwaves and is rewarded by points to keep your brain winning. Thus training them into a particular pattern that will change them permanently to be within the normal range as in others. Eventually after several sessions the brainwaves have either been slowed down or fastened up depending on the type of condition. Neurotherapy has been around now in Australia for 25yrs and has helped alot of people. check out the sites theres plenty of them. Initially there is a test of impulsiveness called a TOVA, then a qeeg or a brain map to guide the neurotherapist in his training of the brainwaves. Very scientific and interesting as the brain is a series of electrical waves called alpha beta delta etc and they all can be corrected. hope i havent frightened you. No electrical currents go into the brain via electrodes, they are simply there to trace your brainwaves so you can see them on the screen in the form of a game and correct them yourself, aerobics for the brain in other words.
I have not. I am 24, with ADHD. I have never heard of nuerotherapy. Could you describe it further or do you have links to any good information on it. I am currently taking Vyvanse. I experienced the side effects your son did when i took any other meds. I am very interested in any non medicinal options that are out there. Please go into further detail if you have time.
