! Danielle Better sleep, school and social skills! "My son has made improvements in many areas such as sleep, school, and social
skills. We are very happy." "My son Kyle is sleeping better. He was able to sit the whole session and really
enjoyed himself!" From F to A+ in
school! "My son Dallas has gone through a dramatic change. He is now much calmer and
relaxed. He is progressing very well in school and has gone up the equivalent of three grade point levels. He has
settled down a lot. I truly believe this works!" Goodbye to underachivement,
disorganization, drugs & alcohol! Paul Botticelli "We came across your "light and sound machine" by accident, but what a Godsend this device has proven to be! Your device proved to be a brilliant solution to help combat ADHD. We have also used the device continuously to relieve stress and bring a calming mood to the staff at Helping Hands UK Org. We fully recommend and applaud the device and would encourage any organizations such as ours to utilize such a device. We cannot recommend this device enough." Graham J. Hadlington "I just wanted to give you an update on my daughter. She is borderline ADHD. Her teacher started using an ADHD checklist. Before the ALERT, she had a 6 or 7 out of 10 possible checkmarks. After the ALERT, she had a perfect score everyday, with no checkmarks. At home, my husband and I are finding her much more cooperative, less argumentative and she is doing her homework without bouncing up and down 100 times. I asked the teacher for work to be completed at home today and she has been working on it for the past two hours without complaint! Unbelievable! One of the biggest changes is her attitude towards us. She realizes right away that she stepped over the line and apologizes almost immediately. Her temper outbursts are almost non-existent. My husband also tried a session when he had a headache and his headache went away." Karen Rodway Daryn has exhibited signs of extremely active behavior from a very early age. During kindergarten he received testing and we were informed he showed all of the symptoms of ADHD. Daryn found the educational system very challenging from the first day of ECS, his learning to read almost tore our family apart. By the end of grade one neither my husband nor I would attempt to read with him because he couldn’t concentrate long enough to visually recognize the word STAR. He is fascinated with stars, space etc, this simple word frustrated him totally as did words like THE and AND. It also made him really recognize internally for the first time that he was different and that hurt him a lot. What it also did was make him very competitive in any areas of his life where he was having any success to compensate for the pain and lack of success in the scholastic arena. This of course lead to a whole other set of problems aside from the academic challenges he was already facing. In October 1994, we were fortunate enough to learn about your "light and sound machine" though a local television show followed by an evening seminar. By this point we had nothing to lose as neither my husband nor I believe that the masking of symptoms through the use of medication is a lifetime solution. We had tried a number of things including diet modification with only marginal results if any. We purchased the audio-visual entrainment (AVE) unit and gave our son a future. In early November 1995, I was asked to attend a private meeting at Daryn's school. The number of individuals that they indicated were attending was more than at any previous meeting From experience I had learned really bad news seems to take teamwork to deliver, the worse the news the bigger the team. Therefore I was extremely apprehensive, even though Daryn seemed to be doing better than ever, really enjoying school and having real success in all areas as evidenced by the marks he was achieving in his note books and on his homework assignments. At that meeting I received the second best bit of news in my son’s life to date. The first was at birth when I was told by his pediatrician that a birth defect affecting the shape of his skull would in no way impair or affect his intellectual capabilities nor with time would have any cosmetic affects. The news was that the school felt that if Daryn kept up his academic performance for the rest of the school year, he should be removed from the special program as he would have progressed beyond the program and could function satisfactorily in regular class with only a modified Language Arts program. He was the first person in our county ever to leave the program because he had academically moved beyond it. The reason all those attending the meeting were there, was to share in this first of its kind success. So I guess the moral of that story is that it takes the biggest teams to share great news. Well, we are now a year later and Daryn has had his first report card as a student in standard class. His lowest mark was in math, 62%. His teacher says this no way accurately reflects reality, this is him mark in spite of submitting less than half of his grade 5 math homework assignments. His highest mark was in Science at 79%. He is now reading at the top end of Grade four level. At the rate he is progressing, I wouldn’t be surprised if he is required to follow the standard grade 6 Language Arts Program. The comments section was our biggest joy, 'Works well with others. Works well in group situations. Is co-operative. Is really fun to have in the class.' Like many other families, we suffered all of the pain, agony and frustration that a learning impairment entails. Your "light and sound machine" is giving our son the future we would never have dreamed possible just over two years ago. If I had only one wish, it would be that all children who may be symptomatic of ADD or ADHD or any learning impairment that has a comprehension component, at least have the same opportunity to experience success as our son has, because every child should have the right to future. " Deb St. Jean "Just a few lines to say thank you for the replacement Omniscreen eyeglasses. It's working wonders for a number of different problems (insomnia, relaxation, child with ADD) The "light and sound machine" is an amazing tool. Again, let me say thank you for replacing the Omniscreen so quickly and being such nice folks." Sinead Nulty Mark Belisle We took him to pre-kindergarten screening. Everything from speech and hearing to motor skills. The nurses and therapists seemed to be very impressed with David. His skills were good. But then they tested him for things that took a lot of attention. And of course I, as his mother, thought he had done exceptionally well. But the 'professionals' very quickly recommended that my husband and I hold David back from school for one year. That's when the nightmare began. The first parent-teacher conference we had went rather well. But David's attention span was not what it should have been for a six year old. We went on through kindergarten with the end result being, that the school felt like David should be held back. We refused to sign the paperwork. Then came first grade. The problems became even worse. After a while I finally admitted that possible David did in fact have a problem. And again the school insisted that David be held back. We agreed. David was then tested by the school psychologist. Having known the man for a number of years, I trusted his opinion. He very tactfully told us that he thought David might have ADD (Attention Deficit Disorder). The doctor began with Ritalin. It is the so-called miracle drug for children with ADD. I began a diary of David's daily activities and moods. Things did not seem to be getting any better. I was still getting daily phone calls from his first grade teacher. So the dosage was increased. Again, no change. Again, the dosage was increased. That's when we started seeing a little change. But again the dosage was increased. At this point David was taking the maximum dosage for a child his size. He began having side effects from the medication. At this point the doctor changed him to Cylert. On a very low dosage we began seeing what we thought to be miracles. David's school work was being completed. He didn't have as much homework. And he was almost back to the normal David we thought we had lost. Then the D.A.R.E. Program started at school. This really affected David. He was tired of taking drugs, and he didn't want anyone to know he took anything. They might call him a druggie. This is when we went to our doctor, Dr. Aaron Kaufman, and he was so excited about this treatment he had gotten in California. It was your "light and sound machine" and Aaron began doing his very best to get our David and this machine together. He also took David off Ritalin. After the first treatment there was just a minor change. He could ride all the way home without jabbering. This was approximately a 10-mile ride. We were elated. And, of course, we continued the treatments. We never told his teachers that we were doing anything about David's lack of attention or hyperactivity. We just let it ride. But after each session, we noticed a little more change. The homework was getting done, there was less of it, and David seemed much happier. Even though we were having a few crisis at home. David was handling them very well. But in February, 1992, things began to happen. It was like David had bloomed. The homework was down to a minimum, and my husband and I were truly ready for the upcoming parent-teacher conference. The teacher started off with 'Has something changed at home? David is doing wonderfully! His homework is complete, his grades are up, and his attention in class is unbelievable!' Of course I wanted to go hug Ruth and Aaron immediately! The very first GOOD conference we had ever had with any of David's teachers. His grades all came up but one. And that was reading. But he did maintain the C that he was carrying. We have continued to see remarkable things happen to David. As a result of the good grades he made it on the Merit Roll. This is not so much for grades as it is for progress. As a result of using the "light and sound" machine, our David is much easier to live with as a person. There are no more repeated instructions, no more senseless fights with his little sister (who is six years younger). Life is just so much easier now. I couldn't even begin to put into words the relief, the happiness and the thankfulness that the machine has brought to our David and our family. In closing, I think any parent with a child who is having problems of any kind, learning, behavioral, psychological, any problem should be addressed by the machine. Thanks for ending our nightmare and making life just a little bit easier!" Gwenda Travis Besides lifelong ADHD, I have neuropathy in my feet as I also have been living with HIV/AIDS for 23 years, so keeping my stress levels in check is very important. I have used many alternative methods to keep my life in balance and still am quite vibrant and alive but this winter has been pretty hard on me and the depression/anxiety was mounting strong. I noticed such a difference just 3 days after using your light and sound machine. I have decreased my ADHD medication by one third with your product and my doctor's supervision." Kurt Scott We would recommend that any child suffering from ADHD difficulties take advantage of the benefits of using this device. Rather than using drugs, we strongly suggest that parents at least make an attempt to use this device first." Michelle Mackay Diana
