Guest guest Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 Has anyone been successful using supplements to lessen or get rid of a facial/neck tic. I am wondering if there is a lack of something the brain is not receiving. The tic changes every so often to something else and of course depends on changes and anxiety but the supplement piece has me puzzled. Please share.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 There is a good forum online dedicated to this – “ACN forumsâ€, google it, choose the Tourettes forum. My son has tics. That forum and the internet has lots of info on different vits and supplements that may help. There are regimens some parents on there swear by. The theory is that not only is there things the brain is missing (nutrients etc), but that there are environmental triggers for tics as well, such as detergents, allergies, foods, etc. From: playparent Sent: Saturday, July 09, 2011 11:41 AM To: sList Subject: Tic Has anyone been successful using supplements to lessen or get rid of a facial/neck tic.

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2011 Report Share Posted July 9, 2011 Neurofeedback is excellent for tics. It also helps with anxiety, OCD and sensory issues. Find someone in your area who does it. It needs to be LENS, a low frequency neurofeedback. I am in San Diego, CA and currently my son is doing this therapy and it has helped him tremendously.
