FIRST  TRIMESTER

Chinese Medicine offers treatment for the newly pregnant woman. Acupuncture for pregnancy maintenance can be helpful for Threatened Miscarriage.

As the new life grows inside of you, your body goes through many changes that can be comforted with Acupuncture :

• Morning Sickness

• Tiredness

• Dizziness

• Headaches

SECOND & THIRD TRIMESTER

During this time your body is more accustomed to the changes of pregnancy. The discomforts are more physical than energetic. You are gathering energy and the baby is growing.

Acupuncture treatment is an important tool that helps you to relax and nurture your body. Also the following conditions respond very well to Acupuncture treatment :

• Back Pain

• Leg Swelling & Oedema                                                                                                                                                           

• Carpel Tunnel Syndrome

• Headaches

• Pre-eclampsia

• LABOUR INDUCTION with acupuncture facilitates a natural, balanced and harmonious birthing and enhances the wellbeing of mother and baby. It is an absolutely non-invasive, safe and very relaxing treatment for both mother and baby. In my clinic experience the newborn babies are more relaxed, feed immediately after birth and the new mum’s lactation process is enhanced.                                              

• BREECH PRESENTATIONS can be treated with MOXIBUSTION on the acupuncture point Bladder 67. It is an empirical point stimulating the baby to move and engage in the pelvis. It is an absolutely non invasive treatment for mother and baby. Please also click MOXIBUSTION on menu bar for further information.
