| Abstract | Autism and ADHD are related to brain abnormality. Many studies show that scalp acupuncture is effective in treating neurological problems related to autism and ADHD. New study has found impairments in white matter in the main neural pathway connecting the right and left hemispheres of the brain in children with both autism and ADHD. The more we learn and know about brain functions, the more we can incorporate this knowledge into our clinical practice of scalp acupuncture. Needling scalp acupuncture on children with autistic and ADHD patients is very different from doing it with adult patients. This paper shares our clinical experiences and techniques on how to practice scalp acupuncture using various scalp acupuncture systems and the Neoh Scalp acupuncture system on autistic and ADHD patients. |
