Eczema Relief with Acupuncture & Herbs
Eczema can be relieved.
It is such a frustrating condition for parents because it’s hard to tell what makes it better or worse.
Chinese medicine has three ways to address eczema:
Acupuncture / acupressure
Topical (on the skin) herbal medicine
Oral (taken by mouth) herbal medicine
These treatments reduce inflammation and regulate the immune response, reduce staph infections, calm the nervous system to reduce itching, address the allergic response, and support intestinal mucosal repair if needed.
It IS possible for your child to return to clear skin and joyful health.
Come meet with us.
We will meet your child, discuss your health history, and design a customized treatment plan that includes at-home acupressure, herbal medicines (either for topical use or oral use), and other recommended dietary or lifestyle changes.
FAQs.
My child has trouble sitting still due to itching. Can they still receive acupuncture or acupressure treatment?
Yes! We move around with the child as they need to. We also have plenty of toys and distractions in our clinics to keep them entertained.
My child is afraid of needles. Will the treatment still be effective without needles?
Yes. We use a Japanese style of acupressure called Shonishin which is designed to be very effective for children while feeling like a massage. Needles are not necessary for children.
My child is sensitive to taste. Will they be able to manage Chinese herbal medicine for eczema?
Yes. Herbs are available in powder, pill, and liquid tincture formats, so we can usually find something that your child will be able to consume.
