How acupuncture helps

Paediatric Acupuncture - Shonishin - Blackwood, South Australia

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, children’s bodies are seen as highly responsive yet vulnerable to imbalance.

Acupuncture supports the healthy development of the Spleen (digestion), Lung (immunity), and Heart (emotions and sleep). It also calms the nervous system and regulates the flow of Qi, helping the child feel more settled, resilient, and well.

Acupuncture offers a natural and nurturing way to support your child’s health - gently working with their body to promote balance and wellbeing from the inside out.

A Holistic Approach to Healing

Children’s health is interconnected: emotional wellbeing, digestion, immunity, and growth all influence each other. Acupuncture addresses root causes and supports long-term resilience.
