TEEN HEALTH

Being a teenager can be tough but Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine can make the roller coaster ride so much smoother. Many of the health issues that affect teenagers and young adults are easily treatable and can make the transition into adulthood so much easier.

 

From the ages of 13-25 the body undergoes so many changes, from tricky hormonal changes to brain development, and it's so important to foster one's health at this age. Our young people have to deal with more social stresses than ever before, academic demands, changing lifestyle and environmental issues that are often confusing and difficult to navigate. This can cause imbalances to our nervous system, endocrine system, circulatory system and musculoskeletal system which then affect sleep, mental health, menstrual cycles and other disturbances to our natural growing cycles. If left unchecked, these can lead to chronic health conditions in later life.

 

Acupuncture and TCM help promote teen health in areas such as balancing hormones, improving mood, reducing stress, depression and anxiety, cycle regulation and boosting immunity. It promotes healthy digestion, reduces acne and eczema, sports injuries, pain, migraines, eating disorders and improving sleep.
