As a child is still in an energetically very special state (纯阳之体), which changes as it grows into adolescence, the techniques of acupressure for children are somewhat different from those for adults.

In addition, for both children, as well as adolescents, I do not use needles at all, since their young organism is still so fragile and sensitive, that solely pressing/ massaging combined with herbal medicine if needed is sufficient to reach any treatment goals.

By gently pressing and massaging the area at the ‘effected’ acupoints I aim to resolve blockages or harmonize unbalanced energies – which is in principle the root cause of any ailments – thereby allowing the energy (Qi) to flow naturally again. Additionally, I offer you (the parents) guidance for  a proper and well-balanced diet according to the principles of Chinese medicine – to ensure, that your little one is getting the right nutritional basis. The right diet and eating habits will have an impact on their entire life, playing a crucial role in enabling as well as maintaining a sustainably strong and healthy body. And as we all know, in a healthy body resides a healthy mind (and vice versa).

In the following, you will find a list of possible indications, in case you are wondering if or when you might want to come to me with your little ones or send your teenaged son or daughter for a visit.
