JAM-Japanese Acupuncture and Moxibustion Clinic

We specialize in Japanese Acumoxa and are dedicated to bringing traditional pediatric care from Japan to more families.With deep respect for a child’s delicate and developing body, we offer gentle, non-invasive treatments that support natural balance and wellbeing.
What kind of tools are used?
We do not insert needles. Instead, we use specialized tools to gently stimulate and stroke the surface of the skin—such as soft rollers and spatula-like instruments.For moxibustion, we use a stick-type moxa, gently warming the body by bringing it close to the skin without direct contact.The treatment is completely painless and safe, allowing children to receive it comfortably.

Children's Acumoxa Q&A

FAQ 1: Is it really painless?

FAQ 1 There is no pain. Children’s Acumoxa does not involve inserting needles into the skin.Instead, we use gentle tools—such as small rollers and spatula-like instruments—to lightly stimulate acupoints and meridians on the surface of the skin by stroking and brushing.Because no needles are inserted, the treatment is painless and safe. Most children actually enjoy the experience.

FAQ 2:  What age range is Children’s Acumoxa suitable for?

FAQ 2 Children’s Acumoxa is generally suitable from around 20 days after birth up to about 7–8 years of age.However, it can still be effective for children up to around 10 years old.

FAQ 3:  Any side effect?

FAQ 3 

There are no strong side effects. However, as your child’s body begins to rebalance, they may feel sleepy or slightly tired.This is a natural response to treatment. In most cases, it is temporary and settles on its own.If you have any concerns, please feel free to contact us anytime.

FAQ 4:  Can children who have difficulty sitting still receive treatment?

FAQ 4 Yes, children who have difficulty sitting still can still receive treatment.Children’s Acumoxa is gentle and performed in a short amount of time, and can be adapted even while the child is moving.If your child feels uneasy, treatment can be done while being held or even during feeding.We always adjust to your child’s comfort and proceed in a way that feels safe and stress-free.

FAQ 5:  Why can Children’s Acumoxa help improve these symptoms?

FAQ 5  A child’s skin is much thinner than an adult’s and is highly sensitive to stimulation.Even gentle touch can help regulate the autonomic nervous system and support the improvement of symptoms.These soft, comforting sensations also help calm a child’s emotions.We also encourage gentle touch and skin-to-skin connection at home as part of daily care.

FAQ 6: What are the benefits of Children’s Acumoxa?

FAQ 6  Children’s Acumoxa is known to help regulate the autonomic nervous system, support immune function, promote the balance of growth and adrenal hormones, and improve circulation.These effects work together to support children’s overall health and contribute to the improvement of various symptoms.

At first, my child was a little nervous, but once he realized how soothing the roller felt, he leaned into me and just melted into it
I was surprised how quickly my child’s cough stopped after the treatment.""
“My child’s foot had been swollen, and I didn’t expect much at first—but after the session, the swelling noticeably went down. I was really amazed by the result"

We want to support children’s health.

By incorporating acupuncture and moxibustion regularly from an early age,we hope to support children in developing a strong and resilient body,and help prevent various health concerns that may arise in the future.

At the same time, we can gently support easing common symptoms seen during childhood,without relying too heavily on medication.

We would love to see more and more children smiling through their experience with Children’s Acumoxa.
