Acupuncture around the world

Photo by misscaro

I recently found an interesting article on the World Acupuncture Blog comparing Japanese style acupuncture to Chinese style acupuncture. The blog mostly discusses the advantages of Japanese style acupuncture, and even has a video treating children! I love the idea of using the red balloon for a distraction when treating children, and I also feel it’s important to let the kids “help” and be able to see what is going on.

And on that pediatrics note, Chinese Medicine Notes wrote a great post about learning to treat children with Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM)- I can’t wait to hear more about this, as I feel a lot of parents are more ready that ever to treat their kids without using too many drugs.

The Acupuncture Relief Project is doing really well over in Nepal. They have posted pictures of them treating - up to 10 hours a day! They are busy, but are enjoying being able to help so many people.

Thanks for the link and for the kind words.
I like you feel that people are searching for alternative ways to treat their children, although they often can’t bare letting someone needle their kid!
And of course, that brushes off on the child….

I know that it makes wonders with my boy. :)

Thank again and take care,
Yael

Sure thing Yael- a lot of mothers I know are looking for different ways to treat their sick kids, and I feel there is a real need for more of it. Tuina can be so effective that you may not even need to use needles!

take care-
amy
