There are three sub-types of ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder); primarily inattentive, hyperactive-impulsive and combined. Individuals with this disorder typically have a higher than average IQ and the sadness and frustration brought about by the inability to express this and/or behavior problems that are not under their control, becomes painful to watch. Previously, the only effective way to treat this disorder has been through the life-long use of drugs. In addition to a child's dependency, serious side effects are often found with the use of drugs. Fortunately, there is an alternative to this scenario. Neurofeedback is an effective, drug-free, painless, treatment for all three types of this disorder, in which the child learns to retrain the attention mechanisms of the brain, alleviating the condition. Once training is completed, no further treatment necessary. Contact: Dr. Stephen Ferrari.
