Children as young as one month old can be effectively
treated with a non-needle technique called Shonishin. This
Japanese method originated several hundred
years ago in Southwest Japan and consists of light tapping or rubbing at
specific points along the acupuncture meridians. Because children are
quite sensitive
and have a lot of energy, Shonishin is extremely effective in balancing
a child’s energy patterns and restoring their natural state of health.
The treatment is done quickly, usually within 15-20 minutes, and is most
effective when done several times per week until the symptoms are alleviated.
After
the initial problem is resolved, treatments can continue on a maintenance
level once per month. A great time to treat children is around the time
of the full moon, when their energy level is at its peak. Monthly treatment
can
boost the immune system and stimulate healthy energy flow through the meridians.
