Based on years of experience in accompanying pregnant women, I’ll support you guided by the thought that I have two patients – you and your baby.
Acupuncture that works on the relevant body systems – the nervous system, the digestive system and the hormonal system – will help you through your pregnancy in good health and emotionally resilient, and will create the best conditions for the healthy development of the baby in your womb.
Your treatment is tailored to each stage of your pregnancy and includes strengthening your immune system through acupuncture and diet, treating common discomforts during pregnancy such as anxiety, sleep problems, morning sickness (nausea and vomiting), backache, hormonal sores, constipation and mood swings.
Treatment of the fetus is, of course, not direct, but rather by needling acupuncture points on your body, whose function is to stimulate blood flow to the uterus to support the baby. This particular treatment is especially important for women who have experienced recurrent pregnancy loss.
