- 30% of ALL children have Visual Problems possibly affecting Reading, Learning and Attention
- In NZ that represents 200,000 kiwi school children !
- 80% of children with Reading, Learning, Attention Issues or just 'not achieving to potential' have Visual Problems!
- Many children have undiagnosed Visual Perceptual problems.
- They are not processing information in the same way as ordinary readers.
- Their learning pathways are not efficient for the task of reading as taught in schools.
- Repetitive reading practice only further locks them into their unfortunate ways of processing
Cellfield builds new neural pathways in the brain.
- This benefits children from 8 years and above
- It induces attention, expands working memory and provides novelty with reward
- It reduces overload in just two weeks, so that the child doesn't have to work so hard in future
- It gives average gains of almost two years in the ability of children to decode unfamiliar words
