In-Person and Telehealth For Children

David has been treating children for 18 years in the San Diego area. He is also a professor, international educator, and writer with a wide array of experience. He offers both acupuncture and herbal treatments for the most common (and even the most uncommon) syndromes that children present with. You'll be amazed what acupuncture and Chinese herbs can offer to you and your children.

      Appointments don't require needles.

​

 

Between herbs and other tools, David rarely needs to use needles with kids. They happily sit and play with toys while points are stimulated, and they don't even need to sit still. Parents can just relax while we take care of everything.

 

Herbs are very tasty and kids love taking them!
