Acupuncture for Fertility, Pregnancy and Post-Partum

Traditional Chinese Medicine has paid great attention to the practice of gynecology and obstetrics over thousands of years, making it a safe and effective way to regulate the menses, promote fertility and maintain a healthy pregnancy. A women’s physical and mental state during pregnancy can affect the overall health of her baby in the years to follow. Acupuncture is a gentle, yet powerful way to help alleviate symptoms, while simultaneously strengthening the body, to prepare for the demands of childbirth and post-partum.
