There's a new therapy that is drugless, AND affordable called Neuroliminal Training (NT). It works in the same way as the very expensive Neurofeedback (aka EEG biofeedback). Several volunteer tests over the past 4 years has shown that at least 85-90% of all ADD/ADHD cases can be "solved" using it for 8 weeks, or less. Successful solution is established in the EEG community as "sitting still in class, concentrating and learning, increasing grade averages, and/or increasing on IQ tests about 15 points.
NFB, or EEG BF has proven for about 40 years to be the most effective solution for all "attention" problems. However, the mid or low income family simply can’t afford this proven therapy at an average cost of $4000+ per ADHD child.
Ritalin and the rest of the ADHD drugs (Strattera, Concerta, and Adderall) have been promoted by Big Pharma so well that few people even know about Neurofeedback. None of these drugs ever solved the basic problem, but they allow the teachers to control the classroom, and sedate the ADD/ADHD kids. Unknowing schools "push" such drugs as it makes these kids easier to control classrooms. All these drugs have serious side effects.
(NT) has also proved by extensive volunteer testing (seven tests since 2004) that it does exactly the same thing as EEG BF - it changes certain brain waves.
Instead of going to a clinic costing from $75-$250 per half hour, sitting in front of a computer screen with electrodes attached to the head about 50-60 times,
In a test in 2006, 23 volunteers conducted an 8 week test, and all 23 improved just as would be expected using EEG BF In earlier tests in 2004 and 2005, similar results were seen. The similarities between the expensive EEG BF Training and the inexpensive Neuroliminal Training, especially in success rates was remarkable.
Volunteer tests of eight week usage of NT concluded in 2007 included 13 autistic children ranging in age from 3 to 16
All improved, some dramatically, and some slowly. Of course, autism takes a lot more time.
