Stay fit and agile throughout your pregnancy!
During your pregnancy, a lot changes. The hormones disrupt your body, while the outside world shouldn't know anything yet. That's quite tricky, because in the first three months you often have the most complaints. You show up at work in the morning, green with nausea, and pass it off as a stomach flu.
Such a shame! And it doesn't have to be that way at all.
Acupuncture can help you a great deal during your pregnancy. Not only can your pregnancy nausea decrease, but also your mood swings, fatigue, lack of energy, and ligament pain. If your symptoms lessen, you can at least enjoy your pregnancy. After all, it is a beautiful and special period in your life, not an illness.
Safe and Natural
Acupuncture is a natural and safe way to alleviate your pregnancy discomforts. It is painless and has no side effects. Not for you and not for your baby. An acupuncturist knows which points are safe to needle during pregnancy. During the treatment, he or she places very thin needles at specific points on your body. This regulates your energy flow and restores your energy balance. This can significantly reduce your symptoms or even make them disappear completely. Acupuncture can also prepare you for childbirth. For example, by quickly putting an end to a nasty flu that caught you just before your delivery.
Even During Your Delivery
Acupuncture can also be used as natural pain relief during your delivery. Your acupuncturist does not need to be present during your delivery. From week 37, he or she can prepare your body for delivery during a treatment. This can help you endure contractions better and make your dilation smoother. Women who were induced found that they could withstand the contractions better. The treatment can be supported with small stay needles. These are tiny needles that are attached with a plaster. You won't feel or notice anything afterwards. Acupuncture can also induce your delivery if you are overdue or help your baby turn if it is in a breech position.
