Accupunture & Chinese herbs

[Guest guest]

Has anyone tried either accupunture and or chinese herbs to help with

ailments/gut/viral issues with their child? If so, can you please

share you thoughts?

Thanks

I am *very* interested in this. I get acupuncture for myself at

times. I asked about getting acupuncture for my son - for his

yeast/gut issues. She won't work on kids. But there must be some that

do. By Chinese herbs, do you mean Traditional Chinese Medicine? It

seems to hold good possibilities. It makes me a bit uncomfortable to

have everything written in Chinese, though, and not really know what I

would be giving my child.

I'm also looking into other herbal therapy. I've successfully used

some of Susun Weed's (Wise Woman Center in Woodstock, NY)

recommendations for myself. I just ordered her books, and I'm going to

make herbal infusions.

I personally have lots of experience with acupuncture. I think it is

remarkable. It helps with sleep, depression, hormones, calming you

down, can help with cognitive function. It balances out many things

in the body and mind. It supports organ functions. It normalizes

electromagnetic fields in the body. I believe it helps general detox,

but I don't know about detoxing metals with acupuncture.

I've been quite sick for several years, and acupuncture is one of the

several therapies that brought me back (also NUCCA chiropractic and

Craniosacral therapy).

Children (as well as many adults) have needle-phobia. Children tend

to be wiggly and don't want to hold still for twenty minute

treatments. ...I know the Chinese have been herbalists for thousands

of years, but I like to know what I'm taking. And China is one of the

most polluted countries in the world, so I'm not in to taking herbs

from China at this point. With TCM, the herbs are often taken as

teas. This can go on all day with the tea-drinking.

There are certain herbs that are well known, tried and work well such

as milk thistle, olive leaf extract, oil of oregano, grapefruit seed

extract, others. Cat's claw and boswellia are two herbs that help with

gut problems. There are some great herbs from South America being

utilized now, too.

I do know of people who use acupuncture and Chinese herbs to hold

inflammatory bowel disease at bay. But, it seems to be more long-term

maintenance than cure. I'm not saying it isn't helpful, it is. But

the protocol that parents here use seems to get very good results, and

it's more recovery, rather than maintenance.

You might consider craniosacral therapy. It is amazing in what it can

accomplish, and no needles! There are many stories of ASD kids who

improved greatly with CST. It has helped me. My son with IBD has had

significantly less digestive issues since receiving CST. He also

loves acupuncture. He's an adult. My nephew who is very handicapped

is receiving CST now with promising results.

Best wishes.

NAET also like an accupanture but without needles. We started it few weeks ago

and it's going well, hard to tell about results yet. You can find info on

naet.com, our doc using book Say good buy to allergies related autism.

Reiki and Pranic healing does the same thing as acupuncture without

any needles. It is amazing stuff although sometimes it is

unbelievable.... but I have several friends recover from all sorts of

things with it.
