PRE-LABOR SUPPORT

Pre-labor support treatments typically start around week 36-37 at a frequency of once a week leading up to delivery. These treatments help to increase blood flow to the uterus, supports the ripening process of the cervix and support moms to prepare for a smooth transition.

Over the years, midwives and doulas continually give feedback that their clients who do pre-labor acupuncture typically spend less time in labor, transition faster and notice less need for medical interventions, including pitocin, epidurals and even c-sections.

LABOR SUPPORT

Treatments around labor can help support overdue pregnant mothers who may be facing a medical induction.

Acupuncture and/or Acupressure during Labor is often used to help with unestablished labor, failure to progress, nausea, vomiting, fatigue and of course helping to reduce pain.

Non-needle techniques: Not all kids love needles as they often associate needles with the sensation from getting a shot or having blood drawn; however, Acupuncture needles have a much different and less intense sensation.  If this is a concern or your child doesn't want to try needles after showing them, there are non needle techniques we can use such as micro-current, ear seeds, acupressure and pediatric Chinese massage called tui-na.
