Hi Mc,
I checked out the Pfeiffer Center and it looks very interesting. I think a relative of my husband's went there with her son, who was diagnosed with ADD and slight autism. They discovered high levels of copper in his blood and put him on a regimen of customized vitamins and anti-copper compounds. It helped him tremendously. I also noticed that their prices are very reasonable with a Hope fund for those who can't pay the full price.The naturopath I'm going to has had me take numerous tests such as standard blood tests, live blood cell analysis (VERY fascinating), pH values, and hair analysis for heavy metals. The results aren't all in yet, but what has come back is showing some definite metabolic and cellular dysfunction. He's also an expert in hormones and how a dysfunction in any of those systems can cause havoc with psychological health. So I'm gettting intravenous vitamin and mineral drips until he can sort the whole interrelated mess out. I'm devouring endocrinology and cellular biology textbooks in the meantime to shed some light on the incredible complexity of our mortal coils. So at any rate, I'm probably getting the equivalent of the Pfeiffer Center and encourage you to explore this path. It makes sense to look at the whole body instead of only the brain.
