Behavioural & Developmental Disorders: ADD, ADHD and Autism + Acute Conditions
This is Block D of the Paediatric Acupuncture Program and is only available to participants.
By taking this course, you will be able to
- Diagnose and treat ADD and ADHD in children.
- Review the Chinese Medicine perspective on autistic spectrum disorders, ADD and ADHD.
- Realise how we, as acupuncturists, can help make the lives of autistic children easier.

Course Overview
Acupuncture can be of huge benefit for neuro-diverse children, as well as for those who struggle with concentration, attention and hyperactivity. In this block, we look at how Chinese medicine understands these conditions, how we diagnose them in children and effectively treat them.
We also look at some of the most commonly seen acute disorders (Cough, Asthma, Urinary Tract Infection (UTI), Diarrhoea, Fever & Ear infections) and learn how to treat them. Rebecca also covers critical red flags and helps us understand the benefit of treating children during acute stages and after them.

I am delighted to have at last found an online course on this topic that covers so much. I feel that autistic and other children are suffering severely without complementary therapies. I hope that complementary therapies are made available to these children free of charge so that no child ever has to go through so much unnecessary suffering again. Obviously, the trained Chinese medicine professionals should receive wages for their work.
Response from TCM Academy
