| The hyperactive child
Natural help for hyperactive children (ADD/ADHD) Therapeutic experiences and tips how to apply the BICOM 2000 |
| If you read the voluminous literature concerning hyperactivity or if you look at the sales rate of medicine being prescribed to these children, the „hyperactivity disorder" seems to be a big social problem. Today approx. 3-5 % of all children (three times more boys than girls) do have these symptoms. The number of children taking psycho-pharmaceuticals, which can change the personality or might cause a possible addiction, is on the increase. At the moment the substance methylphenidate („Ritalin") is the big seller.
As the Bundesinstitut für Arzneimittel und Medizinprodukte (Federal Institute for medicine and medical products BfArM in Germany) reported, the consumption of methylphenidate increased from 34 kg in the year 1993 to 463 kg in the year 2000. So it is not amazing, that Mrs. Marion Caspers-Merk, the Bundesdrogenbeauftragte (in charge of the drug resort in Germany), alarmed the public. She is concerned that the number of prescriptions in the year 2001 will double, compared with the previous year. In the meantime not only parents but also therapists and scientists make a stand against the prescription of psycho-pharmaceuticals to children. The toxicologist Dr. Alsen-Hinrichs in Kiel/Germany compares the prescription of psycho-pharmaceuticals with cracking a nut with a sledgehammer. US-scientists report, after having made a study in summer 2001, that they were completely surprised that methylphenidate has a stronger effect than cocaine. Only few people (or therapists) know that Bioresonance is a good help for hyperactive children in many cases, free from harmful side effects. In view of conventional medicine the children concerned have a disturbance in their cerebral metabolism. If this is really so, the following question arises: „ And what is the cause of this disturbance?" As far as we know, conventional medicine cannot answer this question. |

In most cases several factors are involved to produce these symptoms and have to be considered in testing and therapy. But there are cases where there is a single stress playing the main role and by treating this stress the hyperactive symptoms disappeared. In one case for instance there was stress caused by valium, which a mother had to take during her pregnancy. In cases like this you quickly have successful therapy results. But in most cases you will need more detailed test and therapy steps to find out the different factors and how to treat them. It is striking that the hyperactive syndrome is very often accompanied by the following diseases: neurodermatitis, intestinal mycosis, amalgam strains. This happens too often than to be a simple matter of coincidence! 3 Main Factors Dr. Karl Hermes, a BICOM therapist from Duisburg/ Germany, noticed that in most cases hyperactivity is based on three main factors: 2. Food allergies and other strains In the past years Dr. Hermes has treated 109 hyperactive children with good or very good results |
| Procedure in Therapy
When taking these 3 factors into account the following procedure is recommended: 1. Step: (Factor 1) In the first therapy session you have to find out the vital substances, which your patient needs for the next two weeks, by testing with electro-acupuncture, kinesiology or biotensor (or by a drop of blood). This test should be done every 2 weeks during the period of treatment, so in total approx. 3 times. Parents are observe strictly that their children take the substances and to report immediately when reactions of intolerance occur (which is very seldom!). Due to these strict instructions the parents’ willingness to co-operate with the therapist is increased. It happens quite often that in the first days the patient and his family are hardly willing to co-operate. But after the first signs of improvement, which mostly can be noticed very quickly, this attitude changes very fast. 2. Step: (Factor 2) Test and therapy of allergies or rather intolerances, of strains and mycoses. You should hand out a list of food to be avoided to the parents. Before starting the very hyperactivity therapy you should have started at least a successful treatment of these serious strains. |

3. Step: (Factor 3) Treatment of the essential factor Therapy mode: Ai, all frequencies, constant attenuation started with 0,05 and increased by 0,05 in each therapy session, i.e. in the second session you apply 0,1, in the third session 0,15 etc., you possibly could do another individual testing. (Enter this programme manually) Time: 2-3 minutes If a negative reaction occurs, apply the former attenuation or even reduce it. Normally apply 1 to max. 2 sessions per week |
| Case report
(Dr. Hermes, Duisburg) 8-year-old boy, extreme hyperactivity, extreme restlessness, only can sit still at school for a short while, no increased aggressiveness, serious legasthenia. He has been restless since birth, even in the last weeks of pregnancy he „moved a lot". His hyperactivity even became worse by passive smoking. Results of biotensor testing in combination with the BICOM device
The good results, which we achieved by testing and avoiding the disturbing substances, showed that the following recommendations are appropriate for all hyperactive children: Avoid:
Confronting the patient with the consequences resulting from the testing with regard to his food and life style seems to be a trivial matter and superfluous but it is (unfortunately) inevitable. Analysis of vital substances for the first 2 weeks:
BICOM program For a period of 12 weeks the patient was treated with the BICOM device once a week 1st week: In the following weeks we chose the same parameters and only increased the attenuation by 0,05 per session. New testing of the vital substances which are needed for week 3 to 6
We noticed a considerable improvement after the 5th week. New testing of the vital substances which are needed for week 6 to 12

The BICOM therapy was completed after 12 weeks. Afterwards the only therapy consisted of:
The BICOM therapy lasted for 12 weeks and vital substances were given for 6 months. Afterwards the child’s behaviour could be described as follows: normal behaviour at school, can sit still, legasthenia considerably improved. Behaviour at home: can play on his own and also together with other children, which was impossible before. All in all: Teacher, mother (single parent) and child are very satisfied. The child could eat everything again, but the mother was recommended to pay attention to healthy food. Dr. Hermes would like to give the following advice to his colleagues: „Before and during the therapy it is very important to speak to the parents and the legal guardians. The parents often feel guilty about their children’s disease. It is extremely important to help the parents to get rid of these feelings, as the parents often are influenced by people around them that their children’s hyperactivity is the consequence of a wrong upbringing. The parents suffer very much from it, as they unfortunately experience that they cannot solve this problem with purely educational measures. An education characterised by severity and not by loving care, produces a considerably counteractive effect on „Fidgety Philip". Finally I would like to do away with another „fairy tale": Fidgety Philip has no „loose screw". Two of my former patients are now successful students: one studies physics, the other one electrical engineering. One student gets the so-called Hochbegabtenförderung (assistance for highly talented persons)!" We asked Dr. Hermes how to proceed when children already had to take medicine such as methylphenidate-hydrochloride. Unfortunately Dr. Hermes has not made his own experiences so far, but he recommends to take this medicine for another 2-3 weeks simultaneously to the therapy and not to stop it immediately. After 3 weeks the medicine should be stopped and eliminated with a BICOM therapy. |
