Acupuncture for Teens and Young Adults
Acupuncture can have a great impact on the lives of teens and young adults. This age group undergoes important brain development and hormonal changes. There are many health issues that may arise because of these changes. It is important that a young person is healthy cognitively, physically, and emotionally during these transformative years. These are the years that shape their adulthood. Academic, athletic, social, and extra-curricular pressures can affect this transition and cause pain, anxiety, fatigue and other issues. If not treated these issues may continue and worsen in adulthood. Immediate treatment is optimal because this age group tends to heal faster than adults and chronic conditions may be prevented.
