The Benefits of Infant Acupuncture

The Benefits of Infant Acupuncture and What to Expect for Their Appointment

Infant acupuncture is a time-tested practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that offers various benefits for your baby's health and well-being. At Same Stars Wellness, we provide gentle and effective acupuncture treatments tailored specifically for infants, addressing common concerns such as:

1. Colic and Digestive Issues: Acupuncture can help regulate digestion, easing discomfort from gas and colic.

2. Sleep Disturbances: By regulating sleep patterns, acupuncture promotes deeper and more restful sleep for both babies and parents.

3. Immune Support: Acupuncture strengthens the immune system, reducing the frequency and severity of illnesses.

4. Teething Discomfort: Acupuncture offers natural relief for teething pain and soothes tender gums.

5. Respiratory Issues: It can help clear congestion and support respiratory function, alleviating symptoms of respiratory distress.

6. Feeding Concerns: Acupuncture can help with latching issues, excessive spit up or any other concerns you have with feeds.

What to Expect During Treatment:

Assessment: Our practitioners conduct a thorough assessment to tailor the treatment plan to your baby's needs.

Treatment: Your baby will be comfortably positioned, and ultra-fine needles are gently inserted into specific acupuncture points with minimal discomfort. The needles are inserted and removed immediately. We use lots of distraction toys and give the baby breaks when needed.
