Attention Deficit Disorder and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder are neurodevelopmental conditions that are characterized by continuing episodes of inattention and/or hyperactivity/impulsivity that affects functioning or development. According to the CDC, these are one of the most common pediatric psychiatric disorders. ADD & ADHD are typically diagnosed during childhood and can often last long into adulthood. The cause of ADD & ADHD are unknown, but research shows that excessive sugar intake, screen time, and exposure to toxins may worsen symptoms.
Traditional treatment for ADD & ADHD involves medications and therapy that may work in the short term. However, these medications may not work long term and come with side effects that include anxiety, irritability, abdominal pain, decreased appetite, insomnia, and headaches. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy is an alternative treatment which will decrease inflammation, oxygenate the entire body, stimulate the growth of new healthy blood vessels, and release stem cells, up to 800% more after 20 sessions. Studies have reported improvement in concentration, communication, working memory and sleep.
A Quantitative EEG shows us electrical activity of the brain and is usually covered by most insurance companies. We will be able to see if inflammation is present, if there are any areas of hyper- or hypoactivity, and any areas of disconnect. Using this information, we can focus on the area(s) of the brain most affected and bring those areas back into balance using Neurofeedback Therapy. Research has shown a reduction in hyperactivity, more focus and attention with Neurofeedback Therapy and ADHD.
Our Naturopathic Doctor offers nutritional counseling and herbal and supplement options based on blood work and symptom profile. She also offers specialty testing that includes MaxGen nutritional genetics testing as well as neurotransmitter testing. She has extensive experience in Family Medicine and Functional Medicine and her goal is to achieve optimal health and wellness by getting to the root cause of the symptoms.
