How can Acupuncture help pregnancy?
Just as each individual human being is different and each newborn baby is different, each woman’s pregnancy is its own unique experience. There are many discomforts that may arise for women during this time. Most conditions associated with pregnancy receive little help from Western Medicine due to its reliance on pharmaceuticals to alleviate the symptoms, and as we know, most of these drugs are unsafe to use during pregnancy. Therefore, many women are told these conditions are a “normal” part of pregnancy. However, treatment may exist for a range of these conditions, many women are now seeking alternative medicines to find relief and are finding acupuncture to be one of the most effective modalities available. In addition, prenatal acupuncture is considered safe during pregnancy by the World Health Organization (WHO), if performed by a licensed, board certified practitioner. So if you’re experiencing uncomfortable conditions during your pregnancy, acupuncture may bring you relief.
The first nine months may be the most important in determining your baby's health. Bird & Bee Acupuncture's safe and beneficial prenatal treatments may help you and your baby make the most of this precious time.
Though it’s never a pleasant moment in a woman’s life, miscarriage and stillbirths are always a possibility in any pregnancy. In instances when this unfortunate event occurs, many women find physical, emotional, and spiritual relief from acupuncture treatments.
