Pregnancy support
Acupuncture for morning sickness, back pain, breech presentation, and labor preparation at Acupuncture Healing Center Chicago.
Overview
About pregnancy support
Pregnancy acupuncture is a well-established practice with distinct protocols by trimester. First-trimester care focuses on nausea and threatened miscarriage; second on musculoskeletal issues; third on labor preparation, breech presentation, and induction support at term. Our practitioners are trained in the point selections that are safe throughout pregnancy.
Treatment
How we treat it
Frequency varies by need. Morning sickness may resolve with a single session or need weekly visits for a month. Labor preparation begins around week 36 with weekly visits. Breech turning (moxibustion at BL-67) is most effective when begun by week 33–35. We coordinate with your OB or midwife.
