Acupuncture Induction
" Thank you. 24 hours later labour started! All good and blissful. Big beautiful boy. Thanks! " Fiona
" Hi - I just wanted to let you know that the baby arrived without (medical) induction and I had a water birth in the pool at home - so I am one very happy, new mummy. The midwives were convinced she wasn’t late just perfectly cooked! Thank you so much for the acupuncture and for helping me to be confident I was making the right choice not to be (medically) induced. " Helen
" I just wanted to thank you. After the last treatment you gave me I started to feel the first contractions three hours later. I was so happy. I had felt under so much pressure when I went passed my due date. " Marion
Once you go past your due date many women feel under mounting pressure from friends, family and the fear of being medically induced. Overwhelming fear at this point in a woman’s pregnancy can be counterproductive to the relaxed and inwardly calm state she needs to be in to allow her body to initiate labour. Acupuncture induction treatments are a good way to reduce anxiety and help the body to move towards a natural and efficient birth. Treatments encourage the cervix to dilate and for the body’s own hormones to start labour gently. More than one treatment is often needed over successive days to get labour going but for some just one session can be enough.
