Children's Wellness

"I started coming to A Way of Life Acupuncture for my children's overall wellness.  We do not want to raise our children on antibiotics and turn to Traditional Chinese Medicine to help. My son’s ear infections started around 9 months old and gradually shifted to recurring tonsillitis around the ages of 3-4 years. Due to continuous infections, we opted for a tonsillectomy and adenoidectomy just before his 5th birthday. I could not understand what was happening. I thought I was doing everything to promote health and wellness for my family...great nutrition, breastfeeding, vitamins, herbs...yet something was still out of balance for him. Thankfully, we discovered Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) two years ago. He wasn’t quite ready for acupuncture needles at age 5, but there are many components to Chinese Medicine that can help children until they are ready for acupuncture. 

Dr. Christine is excellent with children and able to introduce children to acupuncture and TCM in a very non-intrusive, gentle manner.  A few months ago, my children crossed over into full-blown acupuncture treatments because Dr. Christine has done such a fabulous job introducing it to them and making them feel safe. Now, my almost 7-year-old and 5-year-old talk about how many needles they are going to get on our way to the session. Our 7-year-old hasn’t been on an antibiotic since we started Chinese Medicine two years ago, and our 5-year-old has never been on one...we hope to keep it that way and plan on sticking with it.  I encourage you to give it a try and experience the many benefits it has given our family."
