Labour preparation with acupuncture.

From 36 weeks pre-birth, acupuncture treatments can be offered weekly to help prepare you and your body for labour. Working with you our focus is to help prepare the cervix and pelvis for childbirth. 

Labour induction acupuncture.

Induction is provided - however, this treatment is offered once all medical & and other necessary information is given with consent. 

Treatment frequency differs and is patient-specific. 

Please note: Induction is not guaranteed.

However, acupuncture helps in relaxing the mother-to-be, and promotes the softening and cervical dilation process.
