Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder is a common occurrence in children, characterized by attention deficiency and hyperactivity. This disorder may continue through adolescence and at times, into adulthood. Children with ADHD have low self-esteem, troubled relationships with peers, and difficulty in keeping up at school or work. There are three types of ADHD: Predominantly Hyperactive-Impulsive Presentation, Predominantly Inattentive Presentation, and Combined Presentation.
Other symptoms include:
- Lack of focus
- Poor memory
- Boredom, especially in academics
- Absent-mindedness
- Daydreaming
- Impatience
- Difficulty learning new things
- Restlessness
- Excessive talking
- Impulsiveness and overexcitement
At Plexus, we offer a combination of stem cell therapy and occupational therapy programs that mainly focus in reducing hyperactivity and impulsive behavior, and improving focus on activities and following of commands.
