Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder

ADHD (short for Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) is a group of symptoms which typically includes impulsiveness, hyperactivity and a lack of attentiveness. These things tend to be picked up at a young age – they are often highlighted when a child has a change of circumstances, such as beginning school.

Vibration, focused lighting, aromatherapy and sound control can dramatically affect our ability to attend. These tools act as filters for children with ADHD and ADD. The inability to focus and attend when necessary can be debilitating to education and life skills. Our multisensory rooms at Experia can help to filter extraneous sensory information and organize and modulate thinking, speech and orientation. Once exposed to our calming lights, sounds and aromas, an individual with attention challenges can relax, engage and focus on their surroundings. Setting up a sensory room in your school or home may improve the quality of life and provide the much needed sensory nutrition to improve attention. Our rooms can be a place for the individual with ADHD to engage calmly and succeed.
