On Wednesday, February 11 at 7PM, join us at the Clapp Memorial Library for a talk from Belchertown resident and pediatrician, David Gottesgen, who is the author of a new book, Mending the Body with the Mind: Harnessing Kids’ Superpowers To Heal and Stay Healthy. Dr. Gottesgen will discuss integrative medicine in general, then talk about how he utilized the mind-body-spirit connection in all parts of his practice. He will discuss how children and teens can utilize this connection, in a wide array of common disorders, from chronic pain (specifically headaches and stomachaches) to asthma and other respiratory problems, to habit disorders like tics and bedwetting, to sleep issues, to ADHD, autism, anxiety, depression, and phobias to anxiety in sports. Copies of his book will be available for purchase and signing.
