What are these little tools? These are Shonishin tools that Dr. Stephanie often uses on pediatric patients! These are Japanese style acupuncture tools which are used on pediatrics who are either afraid of needles or too young to receive needles. While they might look scary and sharp they are extremely gentle and feel great when used. They are used to help treat fevers, colds, flu, digestive issues and so much more. They are also sometimes paired with cupping depending on age and what the child needs. Kids love these tools as they feel like a gentle massage 💫
