Hi just to chime in, I don't have the exact issues you mentioned. However I believe I am still alive due to weekly treatments. There are alternatives to needles for kids. There are gentle textured rollers which stimulate the meridians in arms and legs. There are small electrical stimulation pads with low voltage current, there is moxa,[ heat], and my favorite, cupping. All great alternatives to needles. I also had a 6 months of scalp needles weekly for post stroke tx which truly helped. You can even leave them in for a couple days. Balancing the meridians feels so good it is worth getting used to the process on a regular basis. Good luck. Oh and if the practitioner uses ultra thin needles it helps a whole lot! Best Wishes TT
