Children are extremely responsive to preventative medicine. Children will often respond quickly to homeopathic remedies, dietary and lifestyle changes, gentle massage, aromatherapy, and magnets placed on acupuncture points.
According to Chinese Medicine it is imperative to resolve health imbalances as early as possible so that the life cycle changes of puberty, procreation, menopause/andropause, and aging transition smoothly and without complications. If a child begins to develop too early or too late there is already an imbalance. The sooner you address a health issue to the time it began the quicker and easier it is to heal. This is true in terms of any health issue, from a muscle tear to a developmental imbalance. For example, if a girl has menstrual problems at age 15, the time to deal with it is now. At 15 she will respond much faster to treatments and she will avoid complications in the future such as possible fertility problems, years of menstrual symptoms, and eventually a difficult menopause.
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine is also very helpful smoothing the often difficult transition from childhood to adulthood. Whether it be calming emotions, or dealing with problem skin, acupuncture and herbs are a natural way to achieve and maintain balance.
