Acupuncture is a natural and gentle treatment that can help certain conditions and discomforts that arise in pregnancy, such as:
•Morning sickness or severe vomiting
•Pelvic, back, and neck pain
•Depression
•Anxiety
•Headaches
•Insomnia
•Digestive issues
•Odema(Swelling)
And many more conditions
Acupuncture also helps prepare the body for labour by encouraging the body to naturally release hormones to ripen and soften the cervix and releases oxytocin to help promote contractions.
It can help to bring the baby into the best possible position for birth, helps to relax muscles and tendons, and reduces stress and anxiety in order to prepare for labour and birth.
Acupuncture treatment can bring an overall sense of well-being resulting in an easier and more relaxed pregnancy.
