sho-ni-shin for prevention, maintenance and treatment of most common
childhood disorders.
 
 
This workshop will focus on the practical side of treating children with Oriental Medicine - right away you will be able to apply your new skills in a clinical setting.  Learn to diagnose effectively, understanding the unique differences between children and adults and using a specific finger vein diagnosis and abdominal palpation. Learn to use Sho-ni-shin, a painless and non-needle Japanese system of working with meridians and acupuncture points. The Sho-ni-shin tools are specifically designed to work with infants and children 1 month to 10 years old. A safe, easy, yet very effective way to treat many common childhood disorders. It can also be used for health maintenance, to stimulate a weakened immune system and strengthen health in general.  We will discuss the use of acupuncture needles, moxibustion, herbal treatments, dietary and lifestyle recommendations, as well as good common sense.
 
On Sunday afternoon, we will treat children in the classroom.
