Treatment for Epilepsy and The Doman Method®
Children with Epilepsy Have Hope
Epilepsy is a chronic disease that causes recurring seizures caused by damaged brain cells' abnormal electrical signals. Epilepsy is a long-term disease and it changes one's awareness, emotions, behavior, muscle control, and sensations. According to the Epilepsy Foundation, this chronic disease affects around 3 million people in the USA and 50 million all over the world.
Epilepsy is a common condition and diagnosis among children with special needs and developmental delays. There are many factors that can create the onset of seizures. The Doman Method® Program has been designed over decades to help the brain function at its optimal state. If the brain is developing and functioning in an optimal way, it is possible for seizures to reduce. In some cases, seizures can stop completely. The Doman Method program focuses on a drug-free approach to treating epilepsy and epileptic seizures.
The Doman Method® for epilepsy
Children diagnosed with epilepsy have shown great potential for improvement with a home-based program that includes an ideal diet, a clean environment, ideal sleep habits, cognitive stimulation and physical activity.
Each individual is designed an integrative treatment program to improve physiological function, cognitive development, and motor development. The human brain is able to change and rewire — this process is called neuroplasticity. The Doman Method program has been designed to help the brain develop through specifically designed activities.
Some children with epilepsy even graduate from the Doman International program and join their well peers in school. Our goal for each and every child is wellness — well enough to function like everyone else, and succeed and be happy in life. Our main objective is excellent results.
If you have a child or loved one diagnosed with epilepsy, you can begin the Doman Method program by attending the Online Doman Method® Course. This course teaches parents how to do a epilepsy treatment program designed for maximum progress in cognitive, motor and speech development, as well as improved behavior, health, and sensory development.
