Acupuncture for Kids
Paediatric Acupuncture
My background in working with children means I understand that every child needs a slightly different approach and different method of treatment.
Every treatment will be tailored to suit their needs and their nature allowing for both an effective treatment and a positive experience.
I have studied paediatric acupuncture under the world famous Rebecca Averne to become a paediatric acupuncture specialist. I treat children of all ages from babies through to teenagers for a huge variety of conditions.
Child friendly needs and needle free techniques
Your child may be happy to try needles, but if they are not, then I will use an alternative technique. Sometimes a child is not willing to try needles at first, but after a few sessions, they will. At each session. I will reassess your child's condition and find a treatment method that balances the need for efficacy with making it a pleasant experience.
Teenagers
Adolescence is a time of great change which some young people found especially difficult, Acupuncture can help to make it a smoother process. The most common reasons that teenagers come for treatment are: anxiety, depression, digestive issues, headaches and migraines, menstrual conditions, sleep problems and many more.
