Acupuncture for Pregnancy
It has been proven that acupuncture during the first trimester helps to ‘hold’ the pregnancy & increase the chances of a successful, healthy pregnancy and also decreasing the chances of a miscarriage. In addition, it is fantastic at alleviating many of those first trimester symptoms that show up during the early stages, like morning sickness and fatigue.
During the second trimester, pregnant ladies can develop new symptoms; while some of the first-trimester symptoms may still be present, heartburn, acid reflux, insomnia and migraines begin to present themselves.
Come last trimester, it’s time to get you prepped for delivery while still managing the daily aches and pains. We make sure the baby is positioned head-down (avoiding breech babies, which all-too-often result in C-sections), and we work together to help your body relax and increase your chances of following your birth plan.
Once that little bundle of joy is born, you enter the little-talked-about 4th trimester, often referred to as postpartum. Many women experience emotional side effects like depression and anxiety, while others experience hormonal hair loss and challenge losing weight.
All of these experiences are very normal and to be expected. Fortunately, acupuncture is proven to help reduce and eliminate these frustrating symptoms and help you experience a more relaxed and calm pregnancy.
