This new research clearly demonstrates that bodily response is not the only means by which acupuncture works; response within the brain might be the most critical part. Once we better understand how acupuncture works to relieve pain, we can optimise this therapy to provide effective, non-pharmacological care for many more chronic-pain patients.

Scalp Acupuncture Treatment for Children with Autism and ADHD 

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. A 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.
