Guest guest Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I have trained my son Tommy with C4-A2 12-15 HZ when he was about 2 years old and it helped him to be calmer at night and helped him organize his behavior. We hooked him up and he was either drawing or playing with blocks while he heard the sounds. That was enough to have quite a positive effect on him.

Guest guest Posted September 26, 2004 Report Share Posted September 26, 2004 I counsel children and their families and have just recently been trained in NF in order to use it as an adjunct to my current practice. I work with numerous very hyperactive children as young as 2. I could see training some of my older four year-olds perhaps, but would like some input from those with experience in treating this age group (if it's possible or helpful) as to the advisability, age, how to determine what to train (since frequency ranges are different, apparently). Also, what is " normal " in a four year-old brain? I would guess that many of the expected ratios and percents are probably different. I have not assessed any this age yet (and may not be able to before training!). Some of these children have been subjected to abuse and neglect, so their hyperactivity may have multiple causes, and sometimes there is defiant behavior as well. Any assistance would be appreciated.

Guest guest Posted September 27, 2004 Report Share Posted September 27, 2004 Merrie, I to specialize as large part of my practice with this age group and would advise against using NF at that age. Instead I would use neurodevelopment exercises along with proper auditory sound stimulation to continue helping the receptive neuropathways develop.... if one goes to quickly to the cortical connections and attempt to help them adapt to poor or underdeveloped receptive system input to the cortex ... .. we may potientally cause some issues. Also, don't rule out gut issues ... in the Phx location my partner who is an MD who specializes in toxic and gut issues tends to find this as a real common issue (98% of the time) in this age group. .... allergy, yeast overgrowth .... etc...... When we measure the neurotransmitter production balance in the body, it's not unusal to have an extremely high PEA or dopemine levels.... this is fixed (even at that young age) through diet as well as proper supplimentation..... if we address only the symptoms at the cortex we still have the issues interering with the overall development of the child (especially 2 to 6 yrs).
