I have been following this discussion, and like the comments made. I
especially like the one quoted above! I am currently doing research at B.Y.U.
on the effects of Music in Education. In the process of my research I had a
good discusion with a professer here who is in the feild of Music Medicine. She
has two grandchildren who have ADHD, and our discusion led to this subject. She
is in the process of getting equipment to do Neurofeedback. Both her
granchildren have been treated, and have made great improvements. She advocates
this approch as it treats the diesese rather than the symptoms.
She also commented that some children are diognosed with ADHD when they
have a raging yeast infection (an allergy) instead.
I am currious if anyone has had experience with Neurofeedback as a
treatment for ADD/ADHD?
