Alternative treatments
Alternative approaches are sometimes used to treat ADHD:
-
Brain Gym--A technique that claims to develop the brain's neural pathways through movement, thus better enabling students of all ages to master skills required for learning, including concentration and listening.
-
Megavitamins
-
Meditation
-
Biofeedback
-
Restricted diets--Some doctors believe that ADHD can be treated by eliminating foods that may cause an allergic reaction in children such as wheat, dairy, citrus, eggs, and corn and introducing supplements such as gingko and fish oils.
-
Antimotion sickness medication
Before you commit to an alternative treatment, it's wise to ask whether there's any scientific evidence that it's effective.
