Treating ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder)

with Tai Chi exercise

 

ADD is a growing problem not only with children, but adults as well. I feel Tai Chi is a wonderful adjunct therapy for treating ADD because it augments many of the mood management techniques recommended for ADD sufferers.

 

A University of Miami School of Medicine study shows Tai Chi is a powerful therapy for ADHD (Attention Deficit and Hyperactivity Disorder). The children participating in the study saw a drop in ADD symptoms, and an enhanced ability to focus, concentrate, and perform tasks.

 

Drs. Edward M. Hallowell, M.D., and John J. Ratey, M.D., experts on he management of ADD wrote, “Exercise is positively one of the best treatments for ADD. It helps work off excess energy and aggression in a positive way, it allows for noise-reduction within the mind, it stimulates the hormonal and neurochemical systems in a most therapeutic way, and it soothes and calms the body.”

 

The slow mindful movements of Tai Chi have much to offer people who suffer from ADD.
