Acupuncture is a 3,000-year-old healing technique of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It improves the body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process.
Your first visit is 75-minutes and includes a comprehensive in-depth intake. Your acupuncturist will then come up with a treatment plan unique to your health concerns, and an acupuncture treatment will be given. Other modalities which may be used include cupping therapy, moxibustion, gua sha, as well as lifestyle and dietary recommendations.
Each follow-up visit will consist of a quick check in, assessment and treatment to continue to help you toward achieving your optimal health.
Cervical ripening treatments start at 36 weeks and continue regularly until the delivery. The focus is on ripening the cervix and preparing the body for the labour. A soft (ripe) cervix facilitates a better birth, reduces your need for pain medication and lowers your risk of needing a caesarean section. *If it is your first visit please book an Initial Acupuncture Visit.*
