      For TCM massage, it's very easy. You search online and read. I also read up a little and it's only a few spots you need to massage daily to improve appetite. & of cos, at the same time, can read about the spots to massage to increase their attention span šŸ™‚ But you must be able to read some chinese cos some websites are in chinese.


      For colostrum, there are many different brands out there. Most important is to get a brand you are comfortable with (in terms of their reputation and the price). Buying colostrum locally is very expensive. I normally order online.


      Just to update: My little boy has rounded A LOT. Can see the flesh starting to pile on on his previously boney arms/legs. & his appetite now is HUGE...
      Per portion he eats, is definitely more than me.

      An example of what he had yesterday:
      Upon waking up: 330ml milk, breakfast consisting of 2 boiled sausages, 1 butter bun (his fave) and 1 fried egg.
      In school (morning tea): 1 packet of cream crackers & 1 butter bun.
      Lunch: 1 large bowl (those Ikea type of large bowl) of fried rice.
      Pre-tea: 2 medium plain cupcake & 330ml milk
      Tea: Sandwich (1 slice of bread plus tuna/mayo)
      Dinner: Beef kway teow soup (2 large bowls). Slurped up additional bowl of soup and some beef slices.
      Supper: Potato chips (share with daddy) and milk 330ml

      I'm still giving him the si sen & cordeceps powder but starting to wean off (only give on Mon, Wed, Fri now).

          To stimulate appetite and growth, you can try TCM massage for kids. One of my former neighbours' son used to be skinny n after a while I noticed he had rounded out significantly so I asked my neightbour n she recommended a TCM. I brought 2 of my sons to this TCM n they rounded out too within half a year. In fact, they even became a bit too round so much so I had to reduce their intake. She's at 2 clinics at Yew Tee and Bt Gombak and does house calls too.

          Hi,

          can I have the contact as well? Thanks!

                  While gaining weight, it is important to eat healthily. Some of the meals above are not good to eat regularly.

                      So sorry I haven't logged on in a while. Call Dr Liu at 9003 8258. She's a qualified western doctor from Taiwan but she's only qualified to practise tcm in Singapore.

                        can give me contacts? how much it cost?

                        Call Dr Liu at 9003 8258. I can't remember how much it costs, but what she does is she might do a few sessions and teach you how to do it at the same time so that you can do it yourself and save some money. Just hope your child will cooperate when you try to massage him/her! Bit painful and uncomfortable in the beginning but they grow to enjoy it subsequently.
