Gentle Pediatric Acupuncture for Children

Specialized care for children, using gentle, effective, needle or needle-free techniques to support wellness and address common childhood concerns. At My Healing Homestead, families will find a nurturing and serene space designed to put even our youngest patients at ease - where healing is supported through gentle, effective treatments in a warm, playful, and peaceful environment. We bring a high level of care in working with complex and chronic pediatric conditions and offer a compassionate, evidence-informed approach tailored to each child’s unique needs. The initial new patient visit is 90 minutes in length. We are happy to offer the initial consultation via telemedicine to minimize time in the office and facilitate a private and uninterrupted discussion that is mindful of a child's need to move and respectful of topics that your child may be sensitive to having discussed in person. These acupuncture appointments are appropriate for children age newborn through teenage years. Pediatric acupuncture appointments are customized and may incorporate needle-less modalities such as tuina, shonishin, and/or acupressure or may include acupuncture needles. Eastern nutrition and herbal recommendations may also be made at this time. Follow up visits are 45 minutes in length and consist of a time to check in in-person and your child's treatment.

Gentle Healing for Little Ones

Shonishin (Japanese Pediatric Acupuncture): A safe, gentle, and effective way to support your child’s health.

Full Moon Kids clinic

Full Moon Kids Clinics follow a Japanese tradition of offering gentle, needle-free shonishin treatments to babies and children in order to support overall health and well-being.

Shonishin is a calming and effective technique that helps strengthen immunity, improve sleep, support healthy digestion, and promote emotional balance - making health maintenance both simple and enjoyable! Offered monthly around the full moon, these treatments align with the natural rhythms of the body and the environment, encouraging balance and harmony. Sessions are gentle, brief, yet highly effective, making them ideal for young children.

I hope that these gatherings also foster a sense of community, reflecting on the cultural value of caring for children collectively and nurturing their health together. The Full Moon Kids Clinics are donation-based with the intention of supporting inclusivity, accessibility, and community care that normalizes preventative and natural healthcare as part of a child’s wellness routine.

Book your appointment today! Spaces are limited. Appointments are scheduled every 20 minutes, with each treatment lasting approximately 10 minutes. Children up to 12 years of age are welcome. Appointments can be scheduled by calling 773.987.4474. Suggested donation is $30 per child and $15 for each additional child.

  • WHat our clients say about our Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Services

    “Our experience with Dr. Jaime Ralston-Wilson has been outstanding. She provided gentle, compassionate care for our infant. She has a holistic approach and took time to get a detailed history before deciding the best method of treatment…I highly recommend her for the whole family.”

  • WHat our clients say about our Acupuncture and Herbal Medicine Services

    Jaime Ralston-Wilson, DAOM, is an earthly angel! I worked with her, personally, for years and was proud to refer to her as my Acupuncturist…I originally sough out Jaime’s expertise to inform myself about acupuncture and how it might be useful to me and to the clients I work with in my psychotherapy practice. I quickly realized that Jaime and her wealth of knowledge are a TREASURE! Jaime is quite exceptional in her investment in her clients. She is timely, calming, warm, caring, and “holds the space” well!”
