Health concerns that come up during the adolescent and teenage years differ quite greatly from young children.  As hormones and social development begin to change, it can be a very stressful time for some young adults.  In addition to treating acute illness, acupuncture can offer a natural alternative and respite to the pressures and discomforts that accompany adolescence, including:

 

• Mood Changes: Depression, Anxiety, Irritability
• Fatigue, Lethargy
• Poor Concentration, Memory or Focus
• ADD/ADHD
• Acne, Other Skin Problems
• Low Immune Function, Chronic Flu or Other Viral Infection
• Digestive Problems
• Reproductive and Menstrual Concerns
