Labour Preparation

Pre-birth Acupuncture and Herbal Remedy can REDUCE pain when giving birth and SHORTEN labour time without under-going any caesarean sections, ensuring you the most NATURAL birthing experience!

​

As more and more women and medical professionals are recognizing the benefits of birthing without pharmaceutical interventions or unnecessary caesarean sections, there is a growing demand for methods that support natural and efficient labours, and that can help prevent unwanted medical interventions. Pre-birth acupuncture and herbal remedies can help to facilitate this natural birthing experience.

 

Staring at week 32, you will receive acupuncture treatments 1-2 times per week until you give birth. Our treatment focuses on relaxing muscles of the pelvic floor, cervical ripening, ensuring there is enough amniotic fluid, and other labour preparation details.

​

Studies show that pre-birth acupuncture can significantly reduce the number of c-sections performed, as well as the number of medical inductions and epidurals. Anecdotal evidence suggests that pre-birth acupuncture reduces overall labour time as well as complications of labour. By keeping your body healthy and stress-free in the weeks leading up to birth, the goal is to reduce pain, shorten labour time, and make your birthing experience the best it can be.
