Integrative ADD treatment is a non-pharmaceutical, non-stimulant option.
What is integrative ADD treatment?
Integrative ADD treatment is about addressing the underlying causes of ADD ADHD.
What causes attention problems?
Sometimes you hear circular reasoning from drug manufacturers like “the cause of ADD is from a learning disorder.” Well, that’s like saying “a lower attention span causes a lower ability to pay attention:” totally worthless words.
Problems with the learning disorder diagnosis
The labeling of “adult ADD” or “childhood ADD,” is not benign. It ignores the potential underlying causes of ADD. A misdiagnosis like “learning disorder,” or a simplistic label like “ADD,” “attention disorder,” or “attention deficit.” can instigate drug treatment.
What are the underlying causes of ADD or ADHD?
There is no medical test to prove adult ADD, or child ADD is isolated in, or caused by the brain. We know there is brain involvement, but that’s different than saying the cause is the brain. Assumptions about your child’s brain dictate the use of the dangerous drugs they want to force on your child. The same goes with the bogus adult ADD label.
Children, or adults mislabeled with “attention deficit disorder” or “attention deficit hyperactivity disorder” get destructive medication treatments. The prescribing doctors believe that your child’s brain is incapable of healing, repairing, and coping on its own. This is a false belief system shared by indoctrinated school administrators and teachers.
It is the sole reason they prescribe destructive medications, but don’t let their false beliefs fool you. They don’t know ANYTHING about methods to restore brain function like integrative functional medicine or applied clinical nutrition. You need a drug-free alternative opinion, and a natural ADD treatment.
Boston Children’s Hospital Research
A study lead by researchers from Boston Children’s Hospital, the Department of Pediatrics at Harvard Medical School and several other institutions, found that there have never been any studies proving that ADHD drugs are either safe, or effective.
Yet, over 6 million children (including 10,000 toddlers) have been prescribed ADHD drug “treatments” with documented side effects including abnormal heart rate/rhythm, depression, hallucinations, homicidal ideation (they think of killing people), insomnia, irritability, hostility, mania/psychosis, seizures, stunted growth, stroke and sudden death to name a few. Parent’s are not being informed about the drug side effects.

What is ADD?
ADD is not a psychological disorder of the brain. ADD is a result of a disharmony of the body that affects the brain. Sometimes it is coupled with a previously dismissed minor head impact, but generally, brain function follows sub-optimal body physiology. Brain function changes following body changes. Associated gross motor disorders are common with ADD or ADHD, like dyspraxia. An integrative chiropractor is the only kind of practitioner who addresses the body’s core, underlying sub-optimal physiology. “Attention deficit” is a valid symptom, but not a good diagnosis. When you make an appointment with us, we want to get to the underlying causes.
What is the standard treatment for a child with ADD or ADHD?
Standard care for kids with “ADD” or “ADHD” is a dead-end street of psychoactive drugs for the rest of your child’s life. More than 25% of kids and teens in the U.S. take prescriptions daily [WSJ: “So young and so many pills”]. Just because you are familiar with the idea of lifetime medications for conditions in adults, like type II diabetes, it does not mean it is safe for your child to take lifetime, brain-altering drugs. The drugs they want to prescribe are so powerful they are considered “controlled substances” by the drug enforcement agency (DEA). Who decided it’s ok for kids?
Regular ADD ADHD treatment does nothing for altered brain neurology associated with mild concussion syndrome, but mild concussion may be one of the causes of ADD or ADHD.
ADD ADHD treatment must be based on physical exam
Successful ADD treatment can not be based solely on interviews with children or adults. Prescriptive guessing —by well intentioned, but clueless people in doctor’s coats— never gets to the potential root causes of ADD. There must be an integrative physical exam. The exam must focus on the contributing factors coming from your child’s body (or your body). These areas of association, like the gut-brain axis and the brain-immune axis, may contribute to the true causes of ADD.

Integrative ADHD Treatment Orange County
When it comes to natural functional medicine and integrative medicine, you should never take advice from someone who does not fully understand a functional medicine, complementary and alternative practice. Therefore, understand that you need to consult with an integrative doctor– to get an accurate perspective. Otherwise, you will get unqualified advice.
Taking the unqualified advice of a conventionally trained physician regarding “ADD” can be confusing. Remember: their beliefs regarding this condition are not based on any physical exam or blood test. Their interview-based evaluation is insufficient, or entirely meaningless. Old-school approaches like that will ultimately fail. Sometimes you just have to go with your gut feelings. The best solution for children with “ADD” (or for adult ADD) is our natural, drug-free, whole-body approach.
So now it is time to make your own decision for drug-free help. Now, at least you know that there is a natural, non-pharmaceutical, multi-step program in Orange County. Even when you are really looking for a completely alternative treatment for ADD, or ADHD, not just a complement to drug therapy. We have that way of treating ADD without chemicals. It is a non-stimulant treatment option. So, yes, you can help yourself, or your child safely and naturally. We use safe, natural solutions for many health problems.
