Question
I’ve heard that pediatric acupuncture is very effective. My child has been a bit coughing lately. Is acupuncture effective for children’s cough?
Answer
Firstly, let’s talk about pediatric acupuncture, which is a form of traditional Chinese medicine treatment. Generally speaking, it has a good therapeutic effect on many pediatric gastrointestinal and respiratory diseases. However, this type of acupuncture needs to be performed by a professional acupuncturist. The treatment requires determining the corresponding acupoints and meridians for it to be effective. It is important to pay attention to personal daily habits and maintain a healthy diet.
