Acupuncture and herbal medicine are time-tested, gentle therapies that support the body’s natural ability to heal and stay in balance.  Dr. Freitas offers care for people of all ages — and pays special attention to the unique needs of children and teens.

​

Acupuncture uses ultra-fine, safe needles (or non-needle techniques for younger patients) to stimulate specific points on the body. This helps regulate the nervous system, reduce pain, ease anxiety, improve sleep, and support healthy digestion and immunity. Kids and teens often respond quickly and positively to treatment.

​

Herbal medicine offers natural, plant-based support for a variety of common concerns — from focus and mood to skin issues and energy. We use gentle, age-appropriate formulas tailored to each child’s individual needs

Whether your child is dealing with depression or anxiety  or simply needs immune support, my goal is to help young people thrive — naturally.
