The ADHD Research Results Say…

School is off and running! This is about the time that teachers start noticing students struggling with attention issues and you may be noticing these issues during homework sessions. Some may have even suggested you should look for ADHD help or if your child qualifies for an ADHD diagnosis. 

It can be confusing to figure out where to look for attention or ADHD help. Is medication the ideal approach? Should I look for an ADHD coach that can provide coping strategies?

These can be helpful options, but wouldn’t it be preferable to identify and address the root cause? ADHD Medication and strategies may help, but it would be wise to first address the root cause to see if these approaches – which are only bandaids – can be avoided. 

At LearningRx, our focus is identifying and addressing the root cause of attention issues. Usually, the cause or significant contributor is a combination of cognitive skills like – processing speed, working memory and/or auditory processing – that are not at levels enabling a student to stay on task. 

When the root cause is addressed, the results can be significant. For example, peer-reviewed research published in the Journal of Neuropsychiatric Disease and Treatment found that individuals who completed LearningRx training and were diagnosed with ADHD saw significant gains in cognitive skills as well as improved confidence, cooperative behaviors, and self-discipline.  

In addition, we have worked with over 6,100 clients diagnosed with ADHD in the past 5 years. When seeking ADHD help, don’t settle for strategies that only address the symptoms, enable your friends at LearningRx in Savage to identify the root cause and design a training program to address these areas to make school easier, more successful and less stressful for your child.
