I recently was speaking to a friend who was telling me about a new technique
called "brushing" where children with ADD are brushed vigorously with a
surgical brush on the backs of the hands and arms, legs and torso back.  I
may not have this exactly correct.  I have asked for the references.  This
technique is used in place of medication and was reported to be successful.
 Wouldn't it be great to have a non-pharmaceutical way of centering this
children???
