Naturopathic Medicine for Children
Natural Family Health Connecticut offers natural treatments for children. We have treated many children with all sorts of health conditions ranging from ear infections, attention deficit disorder, mild autism, bedwetting and severe allergies, among others and is great with children. Food allergies in children can cause many problems such as crying, colic, vomiting, diarrhea, rashes, eczema and congestion. Other symptoms include: “allergic shiners” a bluish discoloration around both eyes. Puffiness beneath the eyes may appear. Redness and irritation in the eyes may occur as well. Rubbing of the nose, sniffles, sneezing, and have congestion may occur as well. A child with allergies may have recurrent sore throats, chronic nasal congestion, and chronic ear infections.
Allergies have been known to be the underlying cause of attention deficit disorder (ADD) and attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in many cases. Studies have shown children with severe allergies are more likely to be aggressive, depressed or irritable, than children with no allergies.
