On Sunday, November 11th, the Chicago Tribune published a feature article on the growing popularity of neurofeedback as a successful, drug-free treatment for ADD and related disorders.
It was extremely gratifying to read about so many health care professionals opening practices devoted to EEG Biofeedback, including a neurologist.
I introduced neurofeedback to the Chicago area in 1993. At that time, most medical doctors were very opposed to exploring alternatives to medication. Our clinic, the Institute for ADD and Learning, engaged in a small, controlled study of neurofeedback and the results indicated that children with ADD who underwent 40 sessions of neurofeedback performed as well as children taking Ritalin on a test of attention.
