How Does Acupuncture Work for ADHD / ADD?

For the diagnosis of ADHD / ADD, we work closely with pediatricians, neurologists, and therapists to provide complementary treatment options.

Our extensive experience shows that acupuncture and acupressure can promote deep relaxation and physical well-being in both children and adults. Anxiety attacks decrease, stress levels are reduced, and many patients report improved emotional balance, better sleep, and significantly enhanced concentration.

Painless Acupuncture for Children

Acupuncture for children can be delivered painlessly using modern techniques such as soft laser, acupressure, or small adhesive patches with tiny round metal beads. Many children are also comfortable with special pediatric needles—ultra-fine acupuncture needles—allowing for effective treatment.

Treatment often focuses on the ear and sometimes on the body.
The “ear beads” remain on the ear for up to a week and are replaced several times depending on the treatment plan.

This approach is particularly helpful for acute stress or behavioral syndromes, hyperactivity, and behavioral challenges.

We look forward to working with you and your children. Feel free to request a complimentary consultation.
