Typical Cases

Developmental Delay:

• Boy, 3.5 years old: Could not walk, spoke very little, had unclear speech, lacked comprehension, was timid, and feared strangers and unfamiliar environments. He had low immunity, caught colds easily, cried at night, wet the bed, and had a poor appetite. After two months of treatment, he gradually began to walk, his speech became clearer, he became more outgoing, could recognize people other than his parents, and his physical condition improved. After six months of treatment, he fully recovered and met all normal developmental milestones for his age.

ADHD:

• Boy, 9 years old: Began showing symptoms 10 months ago. He frequently shrugged his shoulders, twitched his nose, grimaced, was hyperactive, couldn't focus in class, talked excessively, and sometimes hit or cursed others. He was diagnosed with Tourette Syndrome. After acupuncture every other day, his shoulder shrugging, nose twitching, and grimacing disappeared after five sessions. His self-control improved after ten sessions. After fifteen sessions, he could concentrate in class, and his academic performance improved. He was nearly cured after twenty sessions.

Autism:

• TCM treatment shows significant advantages in improving autism. Clinical treatment has found that a combination of Chinese medicine, acupuncture, and massage can enhance treatment effectiveness, improve physical condition, and increase learning ability. Acupuncture can notably improve symptoms by calming the patient, enhancing sleep, and boosting language and communication skills.

After twelve sessions, his symptoms disappeared, and he regained full voluntary movement, achieving a complete cure.
