ADD & ADHD Treatment in Jacksonville FL
Brain-based neurological rehabilitation and integrative support to improve focus, impulse control, and executive function
Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) and Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) are complex neurological conditions characterized by challenges with attention, impulsivity, and executive function. These struggles impact school performance, social relationships, and self-esteem, leaving children and adults feeling frustrated by their inability to consistently focus or control hyperactivity.
At the Brain Optimization Institute in Jacksonville, FL, we know that ADHD is often a result of mismatched processing speeds and under-functioning in specific brain regions, particularly the frontal lobe (which governs attention and control) and the cerebellum (which organizes output).
We utilize the BrainOp Reconnection SystemTM—a science-based approach that combines targeted Functional Neurologyto strengthen deficient brain pathways with Functional Medicine to address inflammatory, nutritional, and metabolic factors.
Our framework for enhancing focus and control is built on five essential pillars to help patients unlock their full cognitive potential and thrive:
Reconnect your brain and nervous system
Reconnect to your purpose by releasing trauma
Reconnect to foods and environments you love
Reconnect to pain-free movement
Reconnect to the life you want
ADD/ADHD Challenges We Support
We most often work with Jacksonville and Florida residents struggling with:
-
Inattentive Type (ADD)
Difficulty sustaining attention, following instructions, and staying organized.
-
Hyperactive/Impulsive Type
Excessive restlessness, constant fidgeting, and difficulty waiting turns.
-
Executive Function Deficits
Poor planning, time management, and emotional regulation.
-
Co-Occurring Anxiety and Mood Swings
Emotional distress often resulting from constant struggle and frustration.
-
Learning Challenges
Difficulty translating attention into academic output.
Our care focuses on using specific, calibrated brain exercises to drive neuroplastic changes and improve frontal lobe function.
How We Assess Nerve Health
Every patient begins with a comprehensive evaluation focused on objectively measuring the function of the peripheral nerves and the central brain structures that process sensory input.
Our Testing Includes:
Neurological Assessments
Detailed eye movement analysis (tracking, saccades) and sensory-motor reaction time testing to measure processing speed.
Cognition Evaluation
Computerized tasks to objectively measure sustained attention, impulse control, and working memory.
Limbic Brain Testing
Identifying stress patterns that compete with attention and worsen focus.
Laboratory Testing
When needed, we evaluate metabolic factors, nutrient deficiencies (like iron/ferritin), and immune-inflammatory triggers (food/gut health) that contribute to brain fog.
This whole-body assessment allows us to create a precise map for neurological rehabilitation tailored to the patient's unique brain profile.
Your Next Step
ADD/ADHD may be part of your story, but it doesn't have to define your future. At Brain Optimization Institute, we believe every patient can reconnect with resilience, purpose, and health.
If you’re ready to explore a new path — one that addresses the whole you, not just your symptoms — we invite you to take the first step.
