iLs is a brain stimulation intervention that is based on the fact that we can change our brain – we can essentially re-wire it through specific and repeated stimulation, a concept known as neuroplasticity. As in building strength and endurance with physical exercise, we are able to build neurological pathways and synaptic activity at any…

Think that dyslexia is all bad? Think again. Individuals with dyslexia use their brain differently and therefore have incredible gifts and abilities. Some of the world’s most successful and intelligent people are dyslexic–and their success is due to dyslexia not in spite of it! Dr. Sally Shaywitz at Yale University concluded that dyslexia is completely…

In my last article, I wrote about how poor working memory affects learning disabilities. Poor working memory can have a significant impact on the ability to decode and comprehend written text. Up to 70% of students with learning disabilities in reading score ‘very low’ on working memory. Working memory can be compared to a video…

When I explained working memory to a ten-year-old last week, he said, “I get it. It’s called working memory because it’s the memory you need to do your work.” He said he now understood why he wasn’t very good at ‘working’ in class. When working memory is weak your child can appear careless, unfocused, lazy…

If you’re confused about the cause of dyslexia, you’re not alone. It seems there are a dozen theories all claiming to find the ‘real’ reason why some people struggle so much with learning to read. When I first plunged into this line of work–I was confused and overwhelmed myself. There was more information than I…

What is Dyslexia? Understanding what dyslexia looks like for different individuals as well as at different ages and situations is essential to overcoming it. The sooner the signs of dyslexia are recognized the easier it is to overcome. However, even adults who have lived with it for a lifetime can still overcome it with the…

How Does Reading Happen? Brain imaging research shows that poor readers have fewer reading brain circuits and in the wrong places. This makes reading laborious and too slow for good comprehension. Remedial reading alone will rarely fix this problem. A brain plasticity intervention like Cellfield is required. Beginner readers use the parieto-temporal of the brain…

Essential Fatty Acid Deficiency and the ADHD & Dyslexia Connection If there is one nutrient that has made the most headlines with dyslexia treatment as well as ADHD and other cognitive and mental health disorders it is Essential Fatty Acids. Countless studies in recent years have found what studies as far back as the 1980’s…

Cellfield is a scientific reading intervention program that is specifically designed to create changes in the dyslexic brain. The program was founded on the findings that the brain can change and heal–called neuroplasticity. Thus Cellfield is a unique reading program because its goal is to overcome dyslexia and reading struggles rather than simply manage them….
