Hi Vicky
yes, my son really responds well to acupuncture and has been seeing the same therapist for 8 years now....started even before we got the TS dx
It seems to really quell the vocal tics for him and generally calm his whole system. Important to find a therapist tho that knows about TS and how best to place needles for it
when we first started supplements L-carnitine also helped with his vocal tics....but after a short while we noticed it aslo making him 'edgy" and stopped it. Other people have reported very positive results with it tho...also for eye tics. As always tho, check for possible med interactions with the doc first, especially as it is an amino acid
