Question
My daughter is four years old, and for some reason, she has been suffering from diarrhea for a while now, basically several times a day. I’m too afraid to let her go to kindergarten. A friend told me that massage therapy is very effective for pediatric abdominal diarrhea. Is pediatric abdominal diarrhea massage therapy effective?
Answer
Most cases of diarrhea are caused by gastrointestinal dysfunction. Traditional Chinese medicine is very beneficial for such children. Especially, massage techniques can significantly alleviate the symptoms of abdominal diarrhea. Traditional Chinese medicine is also effective in treating some chronic diseases. In addition, it is necessary to make appropriate adjustments to diet, using a small amount of food to massage the abdomen to improve gastrointestinal function. Wishing the child a healthy growth!
