Pregnancy Care

Acupuncture and Pregnancy

Women having Acupuncture during pregnancy has become increasingly popular. It offers a safe, drug free treatment option during the 1^st, 2^nd and 3^rd trimesters of pregnancy, when there may be no other treatment option.

Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) view pregnancy, childbirth and postnatal recovery as a window of opportunity to enhance the woman's well being. The focus is placed upon promoting preventative care, to improve the health of both the mother and baby.

Due to new rules under the advertising standards agency (ASA) I am unable to list the range of treatments that I believe acupuncture can help. However, I can discuss your treatment options with you. Please call Charlotte on 07766 567 140

Pre-birth Acupuncture 3 - 4 weeks prior to the due date is recommended to commence pre-birth acupuncture. This is followed by a regular treatment each week until labour commences. Acupuncture points will be gently inserted to help prepare the body.

Post-natal care – please telephone to discuss your treatment options.
