MediHerb US: Pediatric Herbal Sleep Support

Sleep challenges are an increasingly common part of modern childhood, from infancy through adolescence. Busy schedules, extracurricular commitments, academic and social pressures, heightened sensory or regulatory needs, and pervasive screen use can all contribute to sleep difficulties, affecting mood, behavior, learning, and family well-being.
In this practitioner-only event, Joanne will explore pediatric sleep, reviewing common patterns and challenges. She will examine how stress, immune and respiratory health, digestive disturbances, diet, and lifestyle factors influence sleep. Drawing on her clinical experience, Joanne will provide practical guidance on age-appropriate herbal prescribing, including safety and dosing, alongside evidence-based strategies for individualizing botanical support to enhance sleep quality in children.

Practitioners will walk away with the following key outcomes:
1. Understand key physiological and developmental differences in children that influence herbal prescribing and therapeutic outcomes.
2. Apply herbal safety guidelines when using herbs in pediatric patients, including age-appropriate dosing, herbal forms, and contraindications.
3. Identify typical sleep patterns and common sleep challenges in children and adolescents.
4. Recognize how stress, gut health, immune function, diet, and lifestyle factors influence pediatric sleep.
5. Apply evidence-based herbal strategies to support healthy sleep in pediatric patients, including age-appropriate dosing.
