Struggling to speak… or watching your child struggle to say a single word — it’s one of the most heartbreaking challenges a family can face.
Whether it’s caused by developmental delay, stroke, brain injury, or neurodisorders like autism, speech loss is not just a physical issue.
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), speech is deeply tied to the flow of Qi, blood, and the balance of key organs like the Heart, Liver, Spleen, and Kidneys.
Common Causes of Speech Issues (from Modern and TCM Viewpoints):
- Speech Delay in Children
Often seen in autism, ADHD, or developmental delay. TCM links this to Kidney Essence deficiency, weak Qi, and blocked communication in the brain’s meridians. - Aphasia After Stroke
Loss of speech or slurred speech post-stroke is due to Qi and blood stagnation in the brain — especially affecting the speech centers and meridians. - Brain Injury or Post-Seizure Speech Loss
Trauma blocks Qi and impairs communication between organs and the mind, according to TCM.
Don’t give up on speech. Give the brain a second chance — naturally. Contact a qualified TCM practitioner to develop a personalized treatment plan that addresses your specific needs.
