Acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine are complementary or adjuvant therapies to be used in conjunction with conventional western medicine. We offer pregnancy and fertility acupuncture that can help with every stage of reproduction.
Acupuncture is a well-recognised method for improving the overall wellbeing of the reproductive system. As a result, it can help to prepare the body for conception, relieve stress and anxiety during pregnancy, and maintain the health of mother and baby during labour, and beyond.
Dr Christine Cui encourages mothers who are over 35 weeks of pregnancy to have pre-labour acupuncture for quicker and easier labour.
Women who are overdue at 40+ weeks can benefit greatly from overdue labour induction acupuncture as a drug-free method of inducing labour (Source).
Acupuncture can also be used, with proven results, to reduce the pain of drug-induced labour (Source).
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can be used to assist with lactation issues, such as an insufficient supply of breast milk or mastitis.
Both acupuncture and Chinese Herbal Medicine can also assist in the management of post-natal depression, helping to restore the imbalance of hormones and emotions that are often a trigger for depression. Postnatal depression can affect many women after childbirth. The symptoms include anxiety, stress, sadness, moodiness, reduced sexual activity, lost appetite, low energy and changes in sleeping patterns.
