Is acupuncture safe for children?

Yes, but calling it acupuncture can be unsettling for them. That’s why we call it Shonihari (Japanese for small child acupuncture) which employs “touching needle technique” and other non-insertive methods to sensitively treat children. Handcrafted gold and silver tools are used to stimulate the treatment points and channels.  A child’s metabolism is highly volatile at baseline so they respond quickly to the influence of “acupuncture. ”  I’ve worked with many children, some as young as 6 weeks and they love it!
