Treating Children with Chronic Pain

Posted by Huiwen Zhang on Saturday, December 19, 2015
Acupuncture has many tangible benefits that have been proven through multiple studies.  A recent study, conducted by Rush University Medical Center showed that acupuncture can actually help alleviate pain for children ages 7 to 20 who suffer from chronic pain.  This is particularly useful in that this sort of treatment provides an all natural way for pain relief.  This all natural way is especially important for children because of how easily it is to alter a child's growth and with Western medicine, it's hard to see what the long term side effects may be.
