Acupuncture while Pregnant
Congratulations! Pregnancy is an important time to receive acupuncture to ensure a healthy pregnancy and baby.
First Trimester Recommendations: Receive weekly acupuncture treatments to:
Prevent miscarriage
Relieve Nausea
Relieve Fatigue
Second Trimester Recommendations: Some continue with weekly acupuncture treatments, others receive acupuncture when there is a specific need such as:
Back pain
Sciatica pain
Continued nausea
Hyperemesis (excessive vomiting)
Third Trimester Recommendations: Weekly acupuncture treatments – especially from week 35 - 42 to:
Get baby in ideal birthing position
Release fear and anxiety around the birthing process
Initiate labor (only recommended when it would prevent medical interventions)
To ensure mother has enough chi (energy) for a healthy and easy birth
Post Partum Recommendations: Receive acupuncture when you are able to - and you are welcome to bring your new baby into the treatment room with you
Stillwater specializes in a treatment called “Mother Roasting” which is best done as soon after giving birth as possible. It is a wonderful, restorative treatment that involves warming the kidney energy which gets depleted during child birth.
We also recommend at least one Maya Abdominal Massage to get your reproductive organs back in their normal, healthy position after a pregnancy.
Coming regularly after giving birth can help prevent or treat post partum depression
Acupuncture post partum is also a great way to prepare for another healthy pregnancy
