aanj Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 I am having issues with my 15 year kid son with adhd. He refuses meds, he did neurofeedback and it seemed to help. I was a believer, however, over the last 6 months things have declined. He either needs meds or neurofeedback. We can't go on like this. Would you try some booster sessions of neurofeedback or go for the meds? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geodob Posted December 16, 2014 Share Posted December 16, 2014 Though a problem with 'neurofeedback'? Is that it is a general term, which anyone is free to use. So that I could buy an 'electrode cap' for about $120. Followed by creating a software program of exercises, Then advertise it is a Neurofeedback program. Where the problem is that their are many companies claiming to offer Neurofeedback. Without having done any research into the program that they are marketing. So that every company has their own version of Neurofeedback? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest JDWellness Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 When neurofeedback does not hold you are usually dealing with food allergy or sensitivity issues or another biomedical issue (infections, nutritional absorption issue (gut dysbiosis, lack of nutrients, often lack of minerals), toxicity (metals/mold...), inflammation). Sometimes functional medicine testing can shed light on what the aggravation is - there are a variety of food sensitivity tests, with varying thoughts on their efficacy - you might opt to try Advanced Allergy Therapeutics (AAT) as another approach and see what the practitioner finds, that system works to ameliorate the sensitivity through neurological resetting...

geodob Posted December 17, 2014 Share Posted December 17, 2014 That is an important distinction, that you have a licenced BCIA provider ! Where to explain what I was talking about? You might read the BCIA page on Find a Practitioner: http://www.aapb.org/i4a/pages/index.cfm?pageid=3297 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
