%X Extensive research has now been conducted and
published for the treatment of dementia or Alzheimer¡¯s disease, traumatic brain
injury (TBI) and other brain disorders using photobiomodulation (PBM), also
known as low-level laser therapy (LLLT). However, minimal information is
available regarding the use of LLLT for the treatment of Attention Deficit
Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD). We have been using LLLT in our practice for over 15 years addressing chronic
pain and injury issues. However, our work with brain injuries is more recent, and we have published three case studies, one describing
a serious traumatic brain injury and two describing our success with
dementia/Alzheimer¡¯s disease and PTSD. Currently, there is very little published evidence regarding
efficacious therapy for ADHD. The case
studies presented here, suggest that LLLT can provide alleviation of these
symptoms, with some
improvement reported after just a single treatment, without any need for pharmaceutical intervention.
