Mo Vargas at Momo Acupuncture

Acupuncture on YOUR child? Yes! Kids actually love acupuncture! It's true. Most kids surpisingly like acupuncture once they've tried it. They too realize how good it makes them feel. But sometimes we have to get creative and offer acupuncture kid style! We can always start with non-needle techniques like lasers and tui-na massage if your child is not sure about the needles. I never do anything that your child doesn't want so sometimes we just have to go slow and that's ok! We can still make great progress using these non-needle techniques on acupuncture points. My care is comprehensive and often includes dietary and lifestyle recommendations that work with each families' individual needs.

Here is a great list of some things I like to treat in my kiddo population:
•Anxiety, Depression, ADHD
•Digestive Issues - Colic, Gas, IBS
•Asthma & Allergies
•Cold/Flu - Poor Immunity
•Headaches/Migraines
•Hormonal Changes in Teens & Tweens (Oh yes, parents - you'll love this!)
•Insomnia
•Musculoskeletal Pain - Growing Pains
•Sports Inuries - Concussions
•TMJ - Jaw Pain & Dental Pain

On making babies...

With regard to my fertility specialty, I work extensively with many of the top reproductive endocrinologists in the Bay Area, coordinating care in preparation for western infertility treatments. I have also helped many women get pregnant before pursuing western treatment as well as after failed IVF treatments. I am an active member of Norcal Fertility Group, a coalition of Chinese medicine practitioners with advanced training in reproductive care for men and women, from pre-conception to delivery. I am very passionate about helping patients understand their lab reports and figuring out their best options for becoming parents. I have taught and mentored several other acupuncturists in the field of fertility care.

Because of the mental health impact infertility can have on your life and relationship, I'm happy to give you a free 10-min consultation on the phone or email, so that you feel comfortable with me and my qualifications. I have learned over the years that the relationship I build with my fertility clients can greatly impact their ability to relax and accept where they are on this journey.

Here are a few things to expect from my care:
1.Lab Report Evaluation & Full Review of History
2.Weekly Acupuncture Treatments
3.Either Chinese or Herbal Therapy or Supplement Recommendations
4.Dietary Guidelines That Fit In Your Lifestyle
5.Lots of Relaxation & a Little Bit of Fun!
