Pediatrics

Pediatric acupuncture at Medicine of the Peace successfully treats chronic and acute illnesses in children of all ages, often without needles. Our treatment also helps prevent illnesses in your family members.

Infants and children respond quickly to acupuncture and the special techniques designed for children. These techniques include using ESTIM (electronic stimulation) called the "Tickle Machine, massaging your child by hand and using various tools to gently tap, rub, or press the body to help the entire energy channel. Needle use is minimal and when needles are used, they are in the body a short time.
