What to Expect During an Acupuncture Session for Children?
During the initial visit, the practitioner will typically conduct a comprehensive assessment of the child's medical history, symptoms, and overall health. The actual acupuncture session involves the insertion of thin, sterile needles into specific points on the body. For children, the practitioner may use fewer needles and keep them inserted for a shorter duration compared to adults. The sessions are usually tailored to the child's comfort level and specific needs.
