Exercise Treatment Options

We are very excited to continue and grow our partnership with LostBoys Strength & Conditioning to bring the Roanoke Valley multiple treatment options for ADHDer’s of all ages. These programs are the first of their kind offered anywhere in the United States (yes, we’ve looked many times over)!

Offerings:

ADHD Kids Class:

Our first offering is our group class for children 9 to 13 years old. Workouts are 45 min long, meeting twice weekly. These classes are geared toward providing your ADHDer a with safe, fun and a therapeutic setting. They will move, exercise and learn about themselves and the role exercise and strength plays in their life.

This is not an 6 or 8 week group. This is an ongoing class! Just as your child’s ADHD doesn’t disappear after a few weeks, neither does this class. In fact, most of the data suggests long term benefits of exercise are actually symptom reducing, not just suppressing! Which means your ADHDer could eventually not have any noticeable symptoms!

Hybrid Sessions:

Our second offering is our one of a kind Hybrid Model of 1 to 1 coaching immediately followed by a counseling session in the gym! Many ADHDers have a hard time engaging in traditional talk therapy, and just need to move. We’ve had wonderful outcomes with those that have used this model; it’s the best of both worlds! Just like the classes, we will meet twice weekly, but for 1 hour: 30 minutes of exercise and 30 minutes of a counseling session.

This model has been so effective we’ve had research taken on our clients and data will be published soon, for you to see what outcomes we can deliver.

“Even for a child who doesn’t always have the ability to do all of the activities there has been a noticeable gain in attention span and willingness to complete activities. Gabriel does a great job engaging and molding his classes to fit the physical abilities of all.”
