Re: Brain scans Margaret...- EEG/ MRI etc - what can we discover?

[Guest guest]

Hi Soudi,

I have never heard of a Deep EGG test or FEAER, so I don't think I can help you.

I do believe that if the brain chemistry is being managed well (via biomedical

interventions) that you would see gains with neurofeedback layered on top ... if

you have an experienced practitioner. At least, that is our experience.

I avoid pharmaceutical drugs for my kids for psychological or psychiatric issues

at all costs, so I cannot comment on the Strattera other than ... glad you took

him off of it. Usually, children who start out with high beta cannot handle ADD

or ADHD styles of drugs, but you didn't mention his beta brainwave levels.

Please do not give up on neurofeedback. Each child is different and so are their

body chemistries. You may have to find a neurofeedback doctor who is certified

through the top 2 groups in the U.S. and/or switch doctors.

And, be sure you're balancing that biomedical stuff really well and maybe add in

some acupuncture to relieve the toxic load on the liver and other organs.

Exercise, plenty of GFCF foods, filtered water, and good rest.

Keep reading up as we are all doing! There are advances in these protocols all

of the time.

Regards,

Margaret

give u idea about my son case. Base on the MRI test the Dr. said the brain

structure is normal, however his auditory processing is very slow due to Deep

EGG test. His attention is Zero and the delta & theta activity is very high,

also FEAER is decreased. The Dr.  put him on Stratera which he tried for two

week, made him very hyper.... then I stop ed it. Please if u have any idea about

how I can help him would be very helpful. Just to mentioned about Neru

feedback treatment for his problem might be helpful, however I had not any good

result from my other child then i decided do not go that pathway. Please help me

if u can.

they may go into " fight-or-flight " mode during their period of frustration. If

they do so, then the blood and oxygen to the human-thinking part of the brain is

extremely diminished and the child will only have access to the innermost parts

of the brain ... which, interestingly, we share that inner part with horses who

are quite emotional and can buck/run or will fight.

subconscious ability to pick up social cues from observing another person is not

able to function/relay appropriately.
