Dr. Mindy Boxer – Acupuncture for Kids

Most kids, as well as a lot of adults, are afraid of needles. So the pairing of Acupuncture and children might not be an obvious one. However, more and more parents are seeking alternative methods of treatment for their children, because our conventional medical system is faltering a bit. Pharmaceuticals are proving to be more harmful than beneficial for many people, especially kids, whose brains and bodies aren’t yet fully developed.

Acupuncture is gaining popularity among Pediatrics. There are  Acupuncturists who specialize in treating children and they are in high demand. These Pediatric Acupuncturists are helping children where others can’t and for many, it is lifesaving.

Pediatric Acupuncture is commonly known as shonishin and it rarely uses needles. Instead, this form of Acupuncture utilizes the practitioners’ hands and rounded tools to stimulate the Acupoints of the child. I will gently and rhythmically rub, tap and press the skin to produce gentle stimulation sensations. Because children process things more quickly and with fewer blockages, the sessions can be shorter and may be needed less frequently.

Parents are turning to Acupuncture because it provides a safe and natural resolution of illness, while also preventing future illnesses. Acupuncture and Acupressure stimulate the body’s ability to restore and heal itself. Our bodies are fully capable of fighting off disease and healing injuries when the right tools are provided. Acupuncture is that right tool that not only stimulates the immune system, but also relaxes the nervous system and regulates the digestive and hormonal systems. All of these things need to be in balance for the body to heal.

Many times parents are told by doctors that what their child is experiencing is just “a phase” and he / she “will grow out of it.” In many ways, this is a way of ignoring the real issues at hand. Conventional medicine doesn’t work holistically, addressing the whole body, and parents are usually sent to a dozen different specialists who never really coordinate to find the best treatment for the child. This becomes frustrating and financially taxing for the parent, not to mention how the child feels. This is where Acupuncture excels. A single Acupuncture treatment can address pain, anxiety, insomnia and digestive issues all at the same time.

Not only is Acupuncture more cost effective when it comes to treating children, but it also is a more logical approach. Why add in the stress of seeing multiple doctors when you can have everything addressed by just one? If your child is suffering from pain, asthma, ADHD or any other type of ailment, Acupuncture might hold the answer
