Genetic Disorder and Birth Defects
A 14 month-old baby, with Genetic Metabolic Disorder and a brain birth
defect due to a deficiency of an enzyme that releases energy from
carbohydrates, is missing her corpus collosum and has 20-30 seizures
per day. Her upper body muscles are underactive, although her
lower body muscles are over-tensed. She also is unable to hold
her head up due to this muscle weakness. She is currently on
multiple anti-seizure medications, those of which have induced
insomnia. Following the first treatment of acupuncture with Dr.
Hu’s method, she only had an average of 5 seizures per day, and
after the second acupuncture treatment, she could sleep through the
night and has not had any seizures.
