Acupuncture for Pediatrics
Chinese medicine is a safe, natural, and gentle way of addressing many common childhood ailments.
We coordinate your child’s care with their pediatrician so that they receive the best of both worlds. All treatments are designed to fit your child’s needs & suit their temperament: we have painless treatment options that do not involve needles & herbal formulas manufactured especially for children.
Pediatric Care
Parents often tell us that they appreciate being able to use our treatments as a first line of defense. From allergies to tummy aches, acupuncture has been used for hundreds of years in China to treat children. Pediatric acupuncture is gaining popularity in the West as parents seek more holistic ways of supporting their children’s health.
