treating children

Traditional Chinese Medicine effectively treats many childhood diseases. Children's Qi is less stable and has not had a chance to be set in complicated disharmonies. For these reasons children are often quick to respond. Treatment at a young age can also prevent ill health in later life. It has the advantage of being relatively gentle compared to pharmaceutical drugs. Acupuncture for children can be frightening but it is not necessary to use needles. Children respond well to massage on acupuncture points. These techniques can easily be taught to parents who can then participate in the treatment at home. Herbs are given in a smaller dose and can be modified to be more palatable to children.
