This is a great resource. My husband is leary of the alternative therapies but this gives some promise to the effectiveness of this type of treatment. I am looking into this for our son as it doesn't seem to be something that could harm him, but could be something that could help. He's almost 4 and we are utilizing speech therapy, vision therapy, OT/Floortime, and developmental pre-school. Thanks for all your fine research.
I would love to link your blog to mine if I could.
God bless,
Sheila
Neurofeedback is a method of training the brain to function differently. During the sessions, the therapist will attach very thin leads that conduct and transmit the electrical energy from the brain to various locations on the patient's scalp.
