Introduction to pregnancy support

WHAT kind of pregnancy support do you offer?

I help clients have a smooth pregnancy by offering pregnancy supportive acupuncture—a practice that’s been used for hundreds of years to support mothers and their babies in a safe and effective way.  It also acts as a natural treatment to a variety of ailments that may present themselves throughout pregnancy.

HOW Can it Help?

Acupuncture can help from conception until birth by nourishing and supporting the body. It also helps to  rebalance your system. 

At 36 weeks, or depending on the recommendation of your care provider, cervical ripening sessions can begin to help you to prepare for labour. If your baby is in a breech position, it is best to come at 34 weeks, with at-home Moxa treatments provided for 10 days to help your baby turn naturally after your session.
