Healing Minds: Biofeedback and Breathing Practices in Children and Adolescents With ADHD
NCT06648252 · View on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗
Study Summary
The objective of this research proposal is to examine the combined effects of an integrative approach including biofeedback and breathing practices (Healing Minds) on severity of Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD) in youth 6-18 years of age. The investigators hypothesize that ADHD severity will be significantly reduced and Heart Rate Variability (HRV) increased after participation in the 10-week intervention. The investigators also propose that ADHD severity in those patients with prescribed medication but poorly-controlled ADHD will demonstrate the greatest improvement compared to those not prescribed medication and those who have well-controlled ADHD. Our specific aims are as follows: AIM I. Conduct a randomized, placebo-controlled trial (RCT) to examine the effects of a 10-week integrative intervention (Healing Minds) that includes Heart Math Biofeedback and Breathing Practices on ADHD severity and HRV in children and adolescents 6-18 years of age diagnosed with ADHD (N=40). Participants randomized to placebo will be placed on a delayed intervention waiting list and will receive the 10-week Healing Minds intervention afterwards. Hypothesis I: ADHD severity will be significantly reduced and HRV increased following the 10-week Healing Minds Intervention in children and adolescents, 6-18 years of age diagnosed with ADHD compared to a placebo condition AIM Ia. Observe the effects of the Healing Minds intervention in the following sub-groups of youth: ADHD without medication (well versus poorly controlled) ADHD with medication (well versus poorly controlled) Hypothesis Ia: Participants without medication will experience a significantly greater reduction in ADHD severity compared to those with medication. Poorly controlled participants with medication will experience the greatest reduction in ADHD severity. AIM Ib. Explore the effects of the intervention on related mental health conditions: PTSD Anxiety Resilience

Full Details on ClinicalTrials.gov ↗What the Registry Record Tells You About NCT06648252
The ClinicalTrials.gov registry entry for NCT06648252 describes a study currently listed as completed. It is categorized as NA, which is the standard way researchers label where a study sits along the investigational pathway from early safety work through later efficacy and post-marketing evaluation. The registered enrollment target is 12 participants, a figure that helps gauge the scale of data the investigators plan to collect. The listed sponsor is Hoskinson Health and Wellness Clinic, which has 2 total studies on file at ClinicalTrials.gov, and sponsors are the parties responsible for study design, oversight, and regulatory filings.
The record links to 1 condition, with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder appearing as the primary indexed condition, and to 1 intervention — of which Healing Minds Biofeedback and Breathing Practices Intervention is the first listed. Interventions can include drugs, devices, procedures, behavioral programs, or observational arms, and each is tracked as a separate registry field so that downstream queries can filter accurately. When a trial lists multiple interventions, it usually reflects a multi-arm design or a comparison protocol rather than a single treatment being tested in isolation. The brief summary published in the registry is the clearest source of protocol intent and should be read before drawing conclusions from any sidebar tags.
Geographic footprint matters for practical reasons: NCT06648252 reports 1 study location spanning 1 distinct geographic area — top geographies include Wyoming. A larger site network tends to correlate with broader recruitment capacity, but it does not imply anything about study quality, and site-level enrollment status can diverge from the overall registry status shown above. Every data point on this page comes from the public ClinicalTrials.gov dataset and is reproduced here for reference only; it is not a medical recommendation, an endorsement of the sponsor, or an invitation to enroll.
