Appetitmangel/Ernährungsstörung im Kindesalter

Acupuncture of Sp 6 seems to be an advisable therapeutic approach in children with lack of appetite, resembling a cost and time-effective, safe option that could even be performed by non-acupuncturists, especially since there is no alternative treatment in western medicine and since the technique is easy to be acquired. The good results encourage even a single-point therapy. However, further studies are needed to confirm these findings.
