Hi, This is Dr Kishore from Vizag. Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese healing method useful as a complementary therapy for headaches, migraine, low backache, fatigue and also for general well-being. It can help in reducing behavioral problems in ADHD and autism. But the role of acupuncture and its efficacy in ADHD and autism is not well studied and not recommended usually. But you can try it as a complementary method of treatment.
Next Steps
You can consult me online via Practo so that I can explain the prognosis of ADHD and autism in detail and enlighten you on the various treatment modalities available.
