What treatments are available for children?

Treating children is very different to treating adults. For a start, children are very delicate. It is easy for various factors to disturb their Qi, however children often respond quicker to treatment than do adults.

 

Chinese medicine can provide an effective treatment option for many childhood problems including:

             Colic & Digestive upsets

             Eczema

             Sleep disturbances

             Earaches

             Recurrent coughs & colds

             ADHD

             Migraines

             Chronic Fatigue Syndrome

 

We use a gentle acupuncture technique specifically designed for children. This is often combined with a natural healing technique that involves gentle skin rubbing, tapping, gentle scraping and acupressure to stimulate various acupuncture points to strengthen the Qi or remove blockages of Qi that may cause various childhood diseases. 

 

For older children, gentle cupping may be used, especially for upper respiratory infections.

 

Laser acupuncture is now also available as an needle free option for children

 

By balancing the nervous, circulatory, digestive and hormonal systems, these paediatric acupuncture techniques offer a safe, effective and drug free approach to the treatment of various childhood problems.
