For parents interested in treating their child with Chinese medicine, whether it is for a particular condition or just for general wellness, TCM offers a range of tools to help your child. TCM can help your child thrive through all stages of growth and offer an alternative treatment and perspective for your child's condition.
Please remember that bringing your child to treatment at this office cannot replace your child's regular visits to the pediatrician or medical offices. If there is an immediate health concern, please bring your child to a medical doctor or the hospital.
Even though acupuncture is perfectly safe for children, it may not be possible to use it on some children. We use pediatric Tuina, Shoni shin (小兒針), and others tools to complement acupuncture or in the case the child is not receptive to acupuncture. If the parents and child are open to it, herbal tinctures or formulas may also be used.
Feel free to contact us with any concerns. Your child's well being is our most important mutual goal.
