Pediatric
Acupuncture
Pediatric care is one of the oldest
specialties in Chinese medicine. The physiology of a child is different
from that of an adult, and young people need specialized care. A young
person's body is constantly changing and a child's organ systems are
immature and delicate. Chinese medicine helps ease many of the physical,
emotional, and psychological difficulties associated with development by
restoring balance throughout this journey.
Chinese medicine uses acupuncture,
acupressure, massage, herbs, nutrition and lifestyle therapies to treat a
variety of conditions; it helps prevent the development of diseases in the
future.
Conditions like asthma, food,
asthma, eczema, obesity, diabetes, ADD and ADHD are rising among
children. This is likely due to
the environment and increased stress that children endure today. Correcting
imbalances at a young age promotes well-being and prevents further health
issues in adulthood. Chinese medicine is a safe, drug-free, holistic and
curative approach to promoting your child's wellness.
