Labour Preparation Support

Many health practitioners may recommend acupuncture as an adjunct treatment including midwives and Obstetricians. They may recommend to try Acupuncture once an induction has been booked in already. They may also suggest Acupuncture if there is another medical reason to encourage a spontaneous labour earlier than expected; such as cholestasis, gestational diabetes or high blood pressure. The Acupuncture is utilised as support to prepare the body for labour, not to treat these specific pregnancy risks. Labour preparation Acupuncture can be suggested at the beginning of full term, at 37 weeks.

Labour Preparation

Designed for women who are overdue or have the OK from the Doc to do what it takes to initiate labour, naturally.
