CHILDHOOD INSOMNIA & SLEEP DISORDERS

Our goal is provide safe, natural pediatric care – combining the best of Western medicine with naturopathic medicine principles. We seek to avoid drugs and surgery, unless necessary, and treat the root cause of your child's condition with natural medicine.

Sleep issues are common in children, and there can be many causes. First, medical issues may need to be ruled out such as thyroid problems, gastrointestinal reflux, anxiety, depression, etc.

Healthy sleep techniques and behavioral strategies are often the first step in establishing healthy sleeping patterns in children. Occasionally, parents’ involvement in sleep regimes is detrimental instead of healthy and may also contribute to sleep disturbance. Other interventions may include diet changes, herbal medicines, homeopathy, or nutrient therapy.
