Pre-Birth/Labor Preparation 

Ease The Journey 

For the mother, the third trimester of pregnancy is all about preparing for labor, delivery and of course meeting your new

little bundle of joy! Each and every delivery is a unique, special sequence of events never to be repeated again. And as such, no one can predict exactly how your labor might turn out to be. However, you do have the power to educate and prepare your self- physically, emotionally and spiritually for giving birth.

All women preparing for labor, whether vaginal or c-section, can benefit from Pre-birth acupuncture treatments.  The main goal is to strengthen the woman's energies & bring about harmony and balance for best optimal condition before labor & delivery.  By stimulating blood flow to the pelvis, promoting cervical ripening, reducing stress and helping position the baby in the best presentation for labor, acupuncture increases stamina, boosts the body's defenses and contributes to efficient labor.   All of this can ultimately lead to reduced medical intervention and chances of complications.
