Whether you’re early in pregnancy, approaching labor, or navigating postpartum recovery, we tailor each session to your body’s needs and your journey.
Pregnancy Support With Acupuncture
Acupuncture during pregnancy is both safe and highly beneficial. It works by harmonizing the body’s energy systems (Qi), increasing blood flow, reducing stress, and relieving pain—without medications or side effects.
Common Conditions We Support During Pregnancy:
-
Morning sickness and nausea
-
Fatigue and low energy
-
Headaches and migraines
-
Lower back pain and sciatica
-
Pelvic pain and joint discomfort

Anxiety, insomnia, and mood swings

Preparation for labor and delivery
Our goal is to help you enjoy a more comfortable, balanced pregnancy while preparing your body for birth.
Labor Preparation & Natural Induction Support
As you approach your due date, acupuncture can help prepare your body for labor by softening the cervix, encouraging optimal fetal positioning, and reducing stress levels. We also offer acupuncture to support natural labor induction when you are past your due date—providing a gentle, non-invasive option that aligns with your birth plan.
Postpartum Recovery & Emotional Wellness
The postpartum period can bring a wide range of physical and emotional changes. Acupuncture helps restore your energy, rebalance hormones, and promote healing after birth. It’s also a powerful support for mental health, helping to reduce anxiety, fatigue, and symptoms of postpartum depression.
Postpartum Conditions We Support:
-
Fatigue and low energy
-
Hormonal imbalance
-
Postpartum depression and anxiety
-
Breastfeeding challenges and low milk supply
