Photobiomodulation for
ADHD
Attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) is a neurodevelopmental disorder that affects approximately 6% of children and 2.5% of adults worldwide.
ADHD is believed to be related to neurotransmitter imbalances, particularly in dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin levels in the brain. Lower dopamine levels may affect focus and task completion, and genetic variations in dopamine transporter proteins could result in too much dopamine being removed too quickly from the brain.
Additionally, ADHD has been associated with changes in functional connectivity in various brain networks, including the default mode network, visual, sensory motor, attentional, frontal, central executive, and frontal networks.
There is some evidence that light therapy may be an effective treatment for ADHD.
