What is Pediatric Tuina?
Pediatric Tuina uses soft, rhythmic techniques on specific acupoints and meridians. It is completely non-invasive, requires no needles, and is often so relaxing that children look forward to their sessions. It helps to balance your child’s vital energy (Qi), supporting their body’s natural ability to heal and regulate itself.
How Can Tuina Help Your Child?
Is your child struggling with any of the following? Tuina can offer a natural, drug-free solution:
- Focus & Concentration: Calms the mind and nervous system, helping to improve attention span and cognitive function, beneficial for school and homework.
- Sleep Problems: Gently sedates the spirit and promotes deep, restorative sleep, easing bedtime struggles and night waking.
- Digestive Issues: Regulates the digestive system to relieve symptoms of constipation, bloating, tummy aches, and poor appetite.
- Allergies & Hay Fever: Strengthens the immune system and clears sinus congestion, reducing the frequency and severity of allergic reactions.
- Eczema & Skin Conditions: Works on the root causes from a TCM perspective, often related to heat and dampness, to soothe irritated skin. In some cases, we also use traditional Chinese herbal tea to help to detox and rebalance.
- Muscle Tension & Posture: Counteracts the “tech neck” and shoulder tension caused by hunching over tablets and phones, promoting better posture and relieving pain.
Why Choose Tuina for Your Teenager?
The teenage years bring their own set of physical and emotional stresses. Tuina is an excellent way to help teens manage anxiety, sports injuries, menstrual cramps, and the postural strain from heavy backpacks and long study hours. It provides a quiet, supportive space for them to unwind and rebalance.
