FAQs

Can children get acupuncture?

Yes — Olo treats children as well as adults, and pediatric acupuncture can be effective for issues like recurring headaches, anxiety, sleep problems, sports injuries, and digestive complaints.

That said, every child is different, and a few things matter before booking: the child's age and comfort level with needles, what's bringing them in, and whether they're on board with the idea (a reluctant child generally isn't a good candidate). For younger children or kids who are needle-averse, our practitioners can use non-needle techniques like acupressure, gentle bodywork, or pediatric tools designed for kids.

Before booking a child's first visit, contact us so we can talk through whether acupuncture is the right fit and which practitioner would be the best match. A parent or guardian must be present for the appointment.
