Supporting Kids' Health Through TCM
Understanding Pediatric Disorders
Childhood is a crucial stage in every human’s life, shaping their cognitive, emotional, and social development. It is a time of rapid growth, exploration, and learning, laying the foundation for future well-being. Ensuring that children receive the right support during this period is essential for their ability to thrive.
Children can experience a variety of developmental, neurological, and emotional challenges that impact their daily lives. Conditions such as autism spectrum disorder (ASD), speech delays, ADHD, and sensory processing disorders require comprehensive and effective treatment approaches to support their well-being and development.

A developmental condition affecting communication, social interaction, and behavior.
- Speech and Language Delays
Challenges in speech development and articulation.
Difficulty with attention, impulse control, and hyperactivity.
- Sensory Processing Disorders
Oversensitivity or under-responsiveness to sensory stimuli.
