A groundbreaking brain treatment has given hope to thousands of individuals with ADHD, with scientists claiming that it has the potential to “transform” their lives. Researchers from the University of Surrey conducted a clinical trial that involved 23 unmedicated children, aged between six and 12, who were diagnosed with ADHD. The two-week program included non-invasive brain stimulation and cognitive training. The results showed that over 55 percent of the children experienced significant improvements in their ADHD symptoms, compared to only 17 percent in the control group. The improvements lasted even after the treatment ended, and changes in brain activity were also observed. Professor Roi Cohen Kadosh, co-lead of the study, believes that this treatment has the potential to provide an alternative to medication and benefit both children and their families. Collaborating researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem considered this study as an important first step in exploring new therapeutic options for ADHD. While larger and more varied studies are needed, this treatment offers hope for individuals with ADHD, shedding light on the underlying mechanisms of the disorder. ADHD, which affects around 5 percent of children in the UK, is a behavioral condition characterized by inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsiveness. Medication and therapy are typically used to alleviate symptoms, but this new brain treatment offers a potential groundbreaking alternative.
