How safe do natural remedies for ADHD have to be?

The best natural remedies for ADHD can be either an alternative remedy, which is one that is used instead of conventional medication or a complementary therapy, which is one that works safely alongside conventional medication.

A complementary approach means that it is so safe and so simple that the worst thing it can do is not work and there is absolutely no danger of any side effects or interactions with any drug regime that the patient might already be taking.

HET, otherwise known as Holistic Educational Therapy is a fully comprehensive and integrated approach involving a number of complementary therapies. These are very specific and are introduced at different stages in the programme which is aligned with how we all learn and how these experiences affect are lives and prevent us from living our full potential.

The pioneer of HET, Linda Porter worked for some time as the national training and development officer for the British Complementary Medicine Association and was involved with the establishment of standards in complementary medicine at that time. In fact the whole training programme for practitioners in HET has been developed around these standards, something called a NOS or National Occupational Standard is in place for all practitioners and trainers in this therapy in order to monitor and evaluate the success of the programme on an individual basis.

Until now, this approach has only been available to professional organisations working with supporting a case load of young people with challenging behaviours like ADHD, Autism etc. Due to the impact of an economic recession, further cutbacks in public spending have resulted in these essential services either being cut or reduced, at a time when children and families are in greater need than ever as the social impact of dealing with behavioural problems in young people worsens by the day.

The successful, award winning and OFSTED commended HET programme has now been made available directly to parents on line, after 10 years of professional application in the educational, social and health care sectors.
