Hi Kenton,
I was reading the book “Pediatrics in Chinese Medicine”. A lot of the time, when they recommend some acupoints for certain conditions, it will say “needles the points but “no” needle retention”. I understand children are full of Yang and might not need a regular needling retnetion time but do we take the needles right out after needling them in? What are the rules of children’s needling retention time. How old is a child do we have to consider shorter retention time, like less than 6 years old?
Thank you!
