“Bloodless Brain Surgery”
“The treatment I provide was once called “bloodless brain surgery” by a patient of mine who experienced a marked reduction in symptoms that had remained unchanged after many years of both conventional medical and alternative treatments. When clients tell me about their problems, my job is not to label the problem but rather to discover the neurological basis for it. Children may have problems in school for any number of reasons. Simply labeling the behavior as ADHD is not going to help the child because ADHD can have multiple causes. …Controlled scientific studies have shown that neurofeedback can permanently improve deficiencies in attention. The safe and lasting neurofeedback intervention, though more time consuming, is a much healthier choice than medication. Relying on stimulants to treat the disorder does nothing to lessen the chronic nature of ADHD and other neurobehavioral conditions. Long-term use of stimulant medications also exposes the child, and later the adult, to serious health risks. A wide array of psychological and neurological disorders can affect a person’s ability to concentrate. Stress, pain, depression, anxiety, sleep disturbance, addictions, diet and food sensitivities, hormone disturbances, fatigue, and so on all affect our ability to be aware of environment. Our ability to focus and comprehend is central to every facet of our existence. ” pp. 6-7 Biofeedback for the Brain by Paul G. Swingle Ph.D. Questions? Treatment begins with a brain map qEEG.
