Acupuncture for children is a safe, natural and effective form of treatment.

Pediatric acupuncture can help with acute conditions such as colds, flus, and ear infections, as well as chronic conditions such as allergies, eczema, anxiety and sleep problems. Pediatric acupuncture can treat many childhood ailments to restore health, increase immunity, and maintain health.

We use both needle and non-needle techniques such as acupressure, pediatric massage, cupping, and shonishin (a gentle Japanese technique to stimulate acupuncture points). We also use nutrition and natural herbal formulas to promote self-healing and wellness.
