Does anyone have any experience with or information about neurofeedback as a
therapy for Tourette's?

It depends on exactly what you mean by neurofeedback. We've tried two
different alternative types of treatment that involve neurofeedback... one
involved de-sensitization to allergies using accurpressure points... (we were
using for TS symptoms that worsened in the presence of certain known allergies
that the kids had), and now we are using something called neuronal feedback, in
which your brainwaves are mapped out on a computer, and you attempt to re-train
them to stay within a certain range. If you are talking about one of these two
types of treatment. let me know and I will tell you my observations.

My son, age 9, was recently diagnosed with ADD & possibly TS. We went to see a
childrens doctor at the Childrens Medical Center here in Tulsa, Ok and his
doctor mentioned something about neuro bio feedback. If any one has info on
this, please let me know. Also, I am looking for all info on medicines related
to both disorders
