TREATING CHILDHOOD ECZEMA AND ADHD
A weekend workshop with Soma Glick
Saturday & Sunday, December 4 & 5, 9:00 A.M. - 5:00 P.M.
 
 
In this workshop you will learn:
  • How phlegm plays an important role in most eczema / asthma / allergy combination in infants and children, as well as in many patterns of ADHD.
  • Dietary and lifestyle factors which aggravate or directly contribute to childhood eczema and ADHD.
  • Acupuncture point prescriptions, sho-ni-shin protocol and herbal formulas with modifications for phlegm patterns of eczema and ADHD.
This workshop is for anyone interested in treating children within the scope of Oriental Medicine and is best suited for students and practitioners of Chinese Medicine who have already taken a basic class or seminars on pediatric acupuncture.
 
On Saturday, we will talk about skin disorders, focusing on the treatment of eczema and specifically its connection with asthma and allergies. On Sunday, we'll explore ADHD, its multi-dimensional etiologies, social ramifications and the connection with phlegm accumulation. 
 
Besides regular needle insertion techniques for kids, I will present the use of sho-ni-shin, a non-needle, painless Japanese system used for infants and children which can be of great help for fearful or very delicate children. It is easy to learn and to use, yet can be very effective in getting positive results for chronic and acute common childhood disorders.Basic differences between children and adults, diagnostic skills and patterns differentiation will be quickly reviewed.
