Child Health Guide: Holistic Pediatrics for Parents
by Dr. Neustaedter OMD, North Atlantic Books,
2005
This book is the first accessible, reliable, and complete medical manual
on holistic pediatrics and natural treatment for children.
Dr. Randall Neustaedter provides the information parents need to integrate
natural treatments into their children's medical care. He incorporates
the philosophies of attachment parenting and holistic medical care, and
offers practical solutions to the problems that all parents face. Preventive
medicine is a cornerstone of natural health care, and this book empowers
parents by giving them the tools to maintain their child's vibrant
good health. The book also discusses holistic treatment for acute, recurrent,
and chronic childhood illnesses.
The Guide starts in the prenatal period, giving parents the tools they
need to build a healthy baby and plan their birth experience at home or
in the hospital. The Guide then takes parents through each stage of a
child's life from the first few months and its attendant problems
and concerns, into the toddler years, and middle childhood. Along the
way the book discusses individual learning styles and temperament, helping
parents to understand their children better.
Preventive medicine is a cornerstone of natural health care, and this
book focuses on the causes of poor health in children, identifying the
common foods and forms of chemical exposure that contribute to chronic
illness. Parents also will find practical advice about specific nutritional
interventions that strengthen the immune system and promote healing.
The emphasis throughout the Guide is on providing emotional support
and natural methods of medical care.
Parents can trust Child Health Guide as a safe, effective resource for
creating their children's path to optimal health from infancy through
the teen years.
