Acupuncture for children can be of great benefit. Many children come for regular acupuncture treatment, from babies, toddlers to teenagers. Not only can acupuncture for children help with any symptoms they may be experiencing, it may also be effective in boosting their overall health in a natural way.
Getting down to the cause of their symptoms and treating conditions at a young age could lay the foundations to better health later on in life. It is a great way to nurture and nourish youngsters as they grow.
Acupuncture for children can help to:
- Strengthen the immune system
- Achieve faster recovery during and after illness
- De-stress the body and the mind
- Support hormonal changes during puberty
- Balance behavioural problems such as hyper activity and more
- Balance their energetics
How do we treat children with acupuncture?
Needles are only used with the child’s consent. Where needles are not appropriate we also use the following techniques:
- Acupressure
- Seeds acupuncture
- Massage techniques
- Moxibustion
- Dietary advice
Acupuncture for children: How well do they respond?
Children will generally respond quickly to treatment as their bodies, being younger will re-balance faster. All they often need is a  little help to balance their energy and restore good health. For this reason, acupuncture for children is often a gentle technique, both therapeutic and calming.
We will be happy to talk to you about your child’s health and how can acupuncture help them.
