Children

In the olden days, in medical school you were taught to immediately saddle up the horse to get to the child quickly if you heard they were sick because otherwise they’d be well by the time you got there. Children have an amazing ability to recover and restore.

However, childhood comes with its own predicaments. There are falls and bangs and crashes. There are falls off swings and jungle gyms, out of trees and beds, broken arms, and other bruises. It is good to bring them in for a checkup if there’s no specific problem yearly just to remove the accumulated traumas.

When treated regularly, children seem to understand innately when they need a bodywork treatment and when they need to see an allopathic doctor. Their bodies have learned what they need to help deal with stress.
