Do children have to get acupuncture to receive treatment?

Cara Frankby Cara Frank
• October 19, 2019November 7, 2019

Infants and young children have very delicate energy that circulates just below the skin. Because of this, needle insertion is not necessary to achieve the desired effect. In fact, in some cases, it may be too strong an approach. Tui-na and other massage techniques, along with Japanese Shoni-shin treatment, are ways to treat children without needles.
