Reading Problems and Neurofeedback - By Dr. Jolene Ross

I discovered the power of neurofeedback for reading problems very early. My daughter Lee had reading problems and hated to read. In elementary school, when it was time for that fifteen or twenty minutes of silent reading we all had our children do after they completed their homework, she would scream as if she was being beaten! At that time, she was still reading little kids books, but the first Harry Potter book had come out. I would set her up for her neurofeedback session and say to her, "Now put the book away," and she would dutifully stuff it between the chair and her leg. I would leave the room to tend to another person and, unbeknownst to me, she would pick up the book and read while she was doing neurofeedback. She became a little “reading monster” and we nicknamed her “Nose In a Book”. She even read The Odyssey for pleasure.

Testimonial: Father of Sam*, 13, with ADHD

“My wife and I made a conscious decision not to tell his teachers or coaches about our son’s participation in biofeedback and his work with Dr. Ross. We wanted to see if they would notice a positive change in him. They have, so have we, and so has our son. We all can’t help but attribute his recent success either in part or in whole to the work he has been doing here at Advanced Neurotherapy. Thanks.”
