Brain Based Healing
for AD/HD, LD and Aspergers Syndrome
ABC Learning LAB offers the best in drug free functional
restoration for the AD/HD, LD and Autistic spectrum disorders.
A thorough history is taken to help understand
how interpersonal and environmental interactions contribute to the children’s
needs.
A brain based Chiropractic neurological examination helps
identify areas of involvement which may be used to help restore optimal
neurological function for each individual child.
Baseline cognitive performance assessments are
made for attention using the Integrated Visual & Auditory Continuous
Performance Test (IVA). When available, other aptitude, achievement
or intelligence tests will be used to help identify functional processing
deficits.
Quantitative EEG (QEEG Brain Mapping) and Videonystagmograpy
(VNG ) studies will be performed as necessary to further
isolate functional areas of neurological involvement and track progress.
Fundamental cellular biochemistry and neurotransmitter
analyses are performed as necessary to isolate areas of insufficient
cellular energy production or imbalances in neurotransmitter levels
which can promote cellular fatigability and dysfunction in the brain.
Metabolic threats to cellular survival are evaluated. Corrections
to any deficits or imbalances are accomplished with natural substances
such as coenzymes (specialized vitamins) and cofactors (minerals,
etc.)
Functional indicators of neurologic status are reassessed
with regularity using a variety of methods to track progress and refine
clinical applications to suit individual needs.
Neurofeedback techniques are utilized to help
restore optimal brainwave function and improve attentional capacity.
Interactive Metronome techniques are utilized
to improve timing and sequencingof motoric events thus raising the functionality
of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex, the seat of important executive
functions.
Brain Gym is taught for home use to improve integrated
right and left brain cooperative function and improve ability to focus
on studies.
Specific Neurological rehabilitative techniques are
utilized to restore sensorimotor and vestibular function through the
most well tolerated methods.
  
Treatment is provided in three month intervals
with re-assessment performed at each three month interval allowing
refinement and assurance of efficacy with each child.
