Pregnancy is one of the most significant physiological events in a woman's life, and Chinese Medicine offers valuable support at every stage. Our practitioners at Rozelle Acupuncture have extensive experience in pregnancy care and understand the unique considerations of each trimester.
In the first trimester, we commonly address nausea and morning sickness, anxiety and emotional adjustment, fatigue, and early pregnancy support for women with a history of miscarriage.
In the second trimester, treatment often focuses on maintaining overall health and vitality, back and hip pain, heartburn and digestive discomfort, and supporting emotional wellbeing.
In the third trimester, we focus on managing pain and discomfort, preparing for labour, addressing breech or posterior presentations, and supporting the mother's energy reserves for birth.
All treatments are adapted for pregnancy safety, using only points and herbal medicines that are appropriate for each stage. We maintain ongoing communication with your midwife or obstetrician and encourage an integrated care approach.
