Oriental medicine and acupuncture are among the CAM (Complimentary Alternative Medicine) therapies most frequently recommended by internist and family physicians and is most currently practiced in over 140 hospitals in the U.S.

An examination of 43 pain clinics in north American children’s hospitals revealed that
approximately one-third offered acupuncture services. Most research suggests that a large
number of children are being referred for acupuncture. This is acceptable to their parents, and
they are happy with the experience overall. This suggests that children really aren’t afraid of
needles nor are the parents. All treatments can be done “needleless as well” for all children’s
conditions using a variety of modalities practiced by licensed acupuncturists and doctors of
oriental medicine. Treatments are simple, gentle, effective and non-evasive. Children are treated
for: ADHD, allergies asthma, indigestion, constipation, diarrhea, colic, tantrums, weak
constitution, eczema, hives, ear infections, stuttering, bed wetting, chronic pain, depression,
pediatric migraine, chronic fatigue, neurological disabilities, cerebral palsy, autism, and chemo
side-effects. Treatments can include progressive relaxation, guided imagery, hypnosis, manual
therapy along with non-inception techniques or light gentle insertion treatments which children
find comfortable and even pleasurable. Dramatic results can be obtained even with very light
gentle treatments.
