Neurofeedback: An ADHD Treatment That Retrains the Brain?

Reader Comments

Back to article

I have been living with Chronic Pain of the lower back for over 25 years. I wish something would work and I'm very interested in any new research. I would volunteer to be a ginny pig.

Sometimes the pain is so bad, that I feel like giving up. I feel pain 24 hours a day, but movement can help ease the symtoms.

Please keep me in mind for any trials.

Is 6 years old too young to try neurofeedback?

My 10 year old son has been receiving neurofeedback training for the past four months. He has ADHD and Tourette's. We have been thrilled with his progress! He is just a much more calm, cool, and collected person now. And while the research is still very young in regards to the effects on it on tics, we can say that he has been tic free for 3 months now. Whether this is just an unusually long waning period than usual for his tics, or if the training is helping only time will tell, but I am very excited by what I have seen thus far. By the way, my son also finds it "superfreaking boring". LOL. For the record, we are also located in Ontario.

My son has just finished neuron feedback therapy. He was never diagnosed with ADHD, he just struggled with reading at his grade level. He did have trouble focusing in class but was able to keep from getting into trouble like other children with focus problems. I was told by a teacher at one of his progress meeting that I should look into Neurofeedback. I contacted the one person that does it in our small area. It was the miracle I was looking for my son. Within 1 week of therapy my son was a completely different student, but my same sweet boy. After 25 sessions, he was done. For the 1st time ever he has all A 's and can finish his homework and class work without struggling. He notices how much easier it is to stay engaged in class. I am so thankful that we were so lucky to find this help. I wish that doctors would reccommend it rather than drugs for children with ADHD.
