Acupuncture During Pregnancy
The Benefits
Acupuncture can help you to have a healthy pregnancy, relieving many of the discomforts of pregnancy and preparing you for a good labour and recovery. Acupuncture offers a safe, effective and drug free treatment option during pregnancy. Research shows no records of serious adverse events in the pregnancy-related systematic reviews (Read Research)
You can consider Chinese Medicine in pregnancy for many reasons, including:
- Pain – commonly pelvic pain, back ache, sciatica and neck and shoulder pain. Birth afterpains.
- Morning Sickness
- Increasing insulin sensitivity/lowering glucose – gestational diabetes, managing Type I and II.
- Migraines and headaches
- Miscarriage: prevention support
- Miscarriage: facilitating ongoing
- Growth Retardation
- Breech or poorly positioned baby
- Anaemia – increase response to iron supplements
- Anxiety, worry and stress.
- Birth preparation
Acupuncture is beneficial before you become pregnant. Indeed the groundwork for a good pregnancy and healthy baby happens before you even get pregnant. This is especially so for women with underlying health issues, such as those with fibroids, diabetes, endometriosis, overweight, autoimmune diseases and so on. Planning at least three months ahead of conception is best and this means you are less likely to have a complicated pregnancy, easier birth and healthy baby.

How it Works
I’ve extensive experience of treating low and high-risk pregnancies. Sometimes I see women throughout their pregnancy. This is especially the case if they’ve struggled to get pregnant in the first place or had previous miscarriages or difficult pregnancies. At your initial consultation (60 minutes) I will take a full medical history, discussing your health concerns and exploring your treatment options and then devise a schedule of treatments.

I had incapacitating morning sickness from week 5 of my pregnancy which meant I couldn’t work at all. At week 12 I started seeing Tracey for acupuncture treatment. She was very kind and understanding – especially when I threw up my entire breakfast in her sink! My morning sickness was considerably improved after 2 treatments and although I had some nausea throughout my pregnancy I was able to function again, return to work, sleep and eat well. I now have a beautiful healthy baby boy!

The labour was very straightforward and at home in the pool as planned! The acupressure points on my back and combs really helped until things got very intense, but the pool and gas and air did their job to see me through to the end. I didn’t tear either which is great. Am so proud and happy with our birth story and have a gorgeous little boy to show for it. I thank you so much for your support and will recommend acupuncture to anyone to help prepare for birth.

We have a beautiful little boy – and the brilliant news is that when I went for my midwife check up (my waters broke on my way to it) the baby had turned and was head down, which meant I was able to deliver him naturally! A scan later that day at Kings confirmed he was head down so I was very happy. The midwives and obstetricians were asking whether I did anything to turn him as he was breech all through my pregnancy and they were all very interested when I said I had acupuncture and moxibustion. In fact I had midwives on the antenatal and postnatal wards coming up to ask me about it! Thank you so much for helping me to have a natural birth as I would have been disappointed had I had to have a C-section. I am recommending your services to everyone who will listen!
