hyperactivity and accupuncture/accupressure

[Guest guest]

Have you tried Tenex--my son takes it for attention, and my nephew--who is

highly hyper, takes this as well, and Clonidine at bedtime.

Just have to be careful monitoring blood pressure (you go on and off of it

very gradually).

Hi group,

I posted some time ago about a Chinese medicine doctor outside of

Chicago. I guess no one has been to her. However my question is

basically has anyone ever tried accupuncture/accupressure for

hyperactivity?

I am at my wit's end-my son's hyperactivity is interfering with his

ability to sit, pay attention and do the things that he can easily do

because he is bouncing off the walls. When he is sick or just feeling a

bit down and therefore is calm, you can not believe how focused he is

and how much he knows.

Any ideas?

Thanks

Alice

Just saw this....my husband is seeing someone in Gurnee for acupuncture &

Chinese meds.

I have a friend who has seen her too for perimenopause symptoms. Is the person

you're

referring to in Libertyville/Gurnee?

in Illinois

Are you treating him for metals? My son's hyperactivity has calmed

down immensely with chelation and supplements.

What's his diet like? If he has allergies, even not obvious ones, NAET (which

uses acupuncture/acupressure) could be helpful.

Jan,

I have read other posts like this. Usually it turns out to be Virus

related.

I am sure that others (as well as me) will also recommend that you get yeast

under control as a possibility.

Another thing that helps with hyperactivity is increasing the Magnesium

intake, either as supps or Epsom Salt Baths.

Good Luck !

Neil

Hi,

I have many friends who tried acupuncture and said no result and the child

has to suffer the pain. I have never tried that just comments from my

friends. So far, I have heard of therapy that helps is the neurofeedback

that seems to calm hyperactivitve kid.

Cheers

here was a huge study done in Germany last year relating accunpuncture to pain

relief. Excellent results. Your contacts must have been in the 5% category :-((
