Inleiding/Introduction

 

Would you like to expand your practice to treat the future generation?

 

 
In the words of the great Sun Simiao, ‘there is no dao greater than the dao of nurturing the young.’  Even though paediatrics has been a specialism of Traditional East Asian Medicine for over a thousand years, many practitioners leave college without the confidence and expertise to include children in their practice.   Yet there is an ever-increasing number of children who really need our help.
 
Acupuncture and related non-needle techniques can be profoundly beneficial for children, both in terms of aiding healthy development as well as treating physical and mental-emotional conditions.
 
You will come away from this 2 day workshop feeling confident to welcome children of all ages into your practice. 

Inhoud/Content

 

You will learn:

 

  • Why children become ill
  • Diagnostic techniques used in paediatrics
  • How to effectively treat the key paediatric pathologies
  • Using needles and other techniques in the paediatric clinic

By the end of the two days, you will feel confident to be able to treat most common childhood conditions that make up the ‘bread and butter’ of daily paediatric practice.  These include: cough, asthma, eczema, bedwetting, food allergies, constipation and diarrhoea and sleep disorders.
