Chinese Medicine - Natural Remedies for ADHD, Anxiety & Allergies
October 15, 2009 at 7:30 PM - R.J.Grey Library
Seminar - Are you looking for a natural remedy to treat your child's ADHD,
Anxiety, or Allergies? If so, please join us on Thursday, October 15, 2009,
7:30-9:00 p.m., at the RJ Grey Jr. High School Library as the Acton Boxborough
Parents of Children with Challenges (ABPCC) support group kicks off the new
school year with a talk about using Chinese medicine to help keep our children
healthy and balanced. Louise Dunn and Maria Broderick, Ed.D., are Licensed
Acupuncturists and Chinese herbalists with Reservoir Family Wellness, LLC with a
practice that focuses on treating children and adolescents with ADHD, anxiety,
depression, OCD, tic disorders, as well as chronic illnesses such as asthma,
allergies and skin disorders (e.g. eczema).
Chinese medicine offers a gentle, natural alternative to treating common
conditions of childhood. Our talk will review the basic principles of how
Chinese medicine diagnoses and treats pediatric conditions. Focusing on the
treatment of four common pediatric conditions (ADHD, anxiety, allergies and
asthma), we'll demonstrate gentle needling or non-insertive techniques, and show
a short film on children receiving acupuncture. We will display Chinese herbal
tinctures used in our practice and describe our approach to herbal treatment. We
are happy to answer questions on how we can work with your child's other health
care providers to establish the role Chinese medicine has to play in an overall
approach to treatment.
