THE FIRST FEW WEEKS & FIRST THE FIRST TRIMESTER

For some women, reaching this point has been a long and challenging journey. The first few weeks can be filled with mixed emotions as your body is preparing to adapt. Many women find acupuncture to offer great support during this period, as treatments are designed to help reduce anxiety and promote wellbeing. As your pregnancy progresses, treatment with acupuncture and Chinese medicine is designed to continually provide supportive care. Common pregnancy ailments, such as morning sickness, dizziness ανδ lower back pain, are also commonly addressed with acupuncture and herbs, should they arise.

PREPARING FOR LABOUR

Many women like to prepare themselves, physically and emotionally, for the arrival of their baby. Obstetric acupuncturists recommend acupuncture treatment from week 36  and onwards to help support this process.
