Common Treatments
While there are many medical treatments for ADHD, amphetamine-type drugs are often prescribed. These come with their own set of side effects and long-term problems. Some medication can be addictive or cause other problems.
Holistic Treatments for ADHD
Many of ADHD symptoms can be treated with holistic methods like good nutrition, exercise, and lifestyle changes. At Sage Homeopathy, we partner with parents to help the child with symptoms. We do not use invasive or toxic treatments. Like any condition, at Sage Homeopathy, we endeavor to address the whole person.
What to Expect
When you come to Sage Homeopathy, our health professional will work with you to develop a comprehensive treatment plan for ADHD. We will conduct an initial wholistic assessment. The assessment covers a wide range, including eating habits, symptoms, triggers, and more. With ADHD, a patient often works hand-in-hand with a nutritionist to develop a healthy eating plan. A healthy diet, exercise, and basic lifestyle changes can help alleviate symptoms of ADHD for both adults and children.
Homeopathic Treatment for ADHD
Unlike toxic chemicals and many drugs, homeopathic remedies are safe for pregnant women, infants, children, the elderly, and anyone in between.
As an example, in cases that the person cannot concentrate for long periods of times there are a few remedies like Agaricus or Baryta Carbonica for problems retaining good memory and focus while studying.
Another homeopathic remedy to be used after emotional excitement, anxiety or depression that prevent focusing is Gelsemium. This remedy is made from the common herb we know as Jasmin that we use in teas to prevent colds and also as relaxant.
There are many more remedies that can be prescribed according to the entire state of the person.
