What is ADHD?
Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) is one of the most common childhood neuropsychiatric disorders in the country.
6.4 million American children between the ages of 4-17 have been diagnosed with ADHD.
2 out of 3 children diagnosed with ADHD will also have at least one co-occurring condition such as behavioral problems, anxiety, depression, and/or autism.
Later in life, ADHD has been associated with low self-esteem, poor academic performance, poor interpersonal skills, antisocial behavior, and substance abuse.
While the most common treatment for ADHD is medication, the side effects of the medication are causing many people to search out alternative options.
Research has also shown that reliance on daily medication may not serve as a long term benefit because there may be no need to develop alternative learning and concentration strategies.
There are many reasons for someone to have trouble focusing and/or learning, and not everyone has ADHD. Therefore, only a trained professional may be able to accurately diagnose ADHD.

Evaluation
Our 3-hour evaluation and cutting-edge technology assists in creating treatment plans personalized to each patient’s unique brain and needs.
Combining QEEG brain map (brain wave analysis) testing with functional markers of brain function such as neurocognitive testing, VOG/VNG (digital eye movement recording), computerized dynamic posturography (digital balance assessment), hand-eye coordination, and a thorough neurological and physical examination, our clinicians are able to find functional deficits which may be contributing to the symptoms of ADHD.

ADHD NeuroRecovery Program
The Neurologic Wellness Institute offers a drug-free approach through brain-based therapies aimed to improve focus, concentration, reading, memory, and/or behavioral problems.
We commonly work with children and adults who have been diagnosed with ADHD, dyslexia, autism spectrum disorder, anxiety, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD), and more general focus and learning problems.
Specific connections in the brain have been shown to be weaker in those who have ADHD causing the signs and symptoms of ADHD. Each of our ADHD treatments are designed to increase the strength and efficiency of specific connections in the brain which may be underdeveloped and/or not working optimally.
This personalized approach allows our doctors to achieve maximum results with our patients.
