help needed

[Guest guest]

Neurofeedback has caused tics in children I work with. Also, stay away from screens - TV, video games etc. The diet initially may cause yeast die off which may cause some behaviors, but in about two weeks it goes away.Good Luck,JudySent from my iPhoneOn Sep 26, 2011, at 1:53 PM, Charmaine N Li <ngaiwli@...> wrote:

stress makes it worse.3. He was much calmer and almost stopped his sensory seeking after I increased his swimming class 3 times/week last session. CharmaineFrom: Cecilia Palacios-Chuang <cpnewlight@...> Sent: Monday, September 26, 2011 8:48 AMSubject: Re: help needed

Janet and Reha, glad to hear about this since I had the same issues with my boys. I thought by giving them those teeth chewers it would help, but with your explanation Janet it all makes more sense to me. I know give them gum and they actually ask me for it for stimulation, and it has helped to prevent cavities. The only two things I would like to let you know is that my dentist did tell me to make sure they don't chew the gum for too long because with time you can use your mandibular bones too much. What is your imput on this Janet? Also we use a special gum without aspartame, which can affect children with sensory issues, and uses xylitol instead of sugar. It is called spry. I order a big container of 600 through amazon and you save a lot especially if you subscribe to subscribe and save through amazon prime.

Good luck and let me know if anyone else has suggestions or observations on this matter.

Beeman's brand gum is also available at World Market (Cost Plus stores).On Mon, Sep 26, 2011 at 1:47 PM, Kipper <sandrakipper13@...> wrote:

 

I will chime in about xylitol---I know dentists like it because some research indicates that it may prevent cavities.  However, when it first came on the market you could find articles about the negative health impacts of xylitol--on kidneys, joints. and other body systems.  This info is much harder to find now, I don't know why.  Just to share this other point of view---I personally dislike any sweeteners that are heavily processed.  I would suggest noticing for your own child if they seem to react well or not to this food product.  Perhaps gum with sugar (also hard to find!) is not that bad a tradeoff.  Most gum formulas have been changed, and it is difficult to even find gum with sugar vs corn syrup etc.  Beemans is available online if you look for it---on old brand that they still make with the old recipe.

We have not seen any children develop tics from the Neurofeedback that we do. If you are using the correct protocol guided by a qEEG brain map, you shouldn’t get tics and the training should actually decrease them. If you use the wrong protocol you could induce tics. Tics many times are triggered by stress and emotional responses. A poor diet, such as eating wheat and dairy, can cause tics too. If getting off of dairy and wheat causes tics or adverse reactions, it is probably because they are addicted to the casomorphins or gluteomorphins in dairy and wheat. These are opioid peptides that will cause withdrawal symptoms just like going off of opiates. They will feel worse at first until they get over the withdrawal symptoms. TV and video games will definitely make sensory problems worse. They stimulate the limbic system which is the exact opposite of what you want stimulated. You want to stimulate the frontal cortex to dampen the limbic system. That is why movement (play, sports, etc.), playing a musical instrument and learning a second language are important because these activities stimulate the frontal cortex.
