Acupuncture has been shown to be effective in treating ADHD.
Pediatric ADHD refers to children with normal or near-normal intelligence, with varying degrees of learning difficulties, weak self-control, excessive activity, inattention, emotional instability and behavioral abnormalities, also known as Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (ADHD), which is related to a variety of biological, psychological and social factors. Nearly half of the patients start before the age of 4, and there are more boys than girls.
The acupoints of Baihui, Yintang, Fengchi, Taichong, Shenmen and Neiguan can be chosen to calm the mind (stabilize the spirit), and benefit the intellect and the brain.
For Yin deficiency of the liver and kidney, Taixi and Sanyinjiao are recommended; for Yin deficiency of the heart and spleen, Heart Yu and Spleen Yu are recommended; and for internal disturbance of phlegm and fire, Fenglong and Laoguan are recommended.
For restlessness and agitation, go with Zhaohai and Shenting; for poor memory, go with Hangzhong; for night sweating, go with Yinqie and Fuxiao; for lack of energy, go with Zhongkou and Shusanli; and for enuresis, go with Zhongji and Bladder Yu.
It is recommended to seek medical treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition.
