Acupuncture for labor preparation
As your due date approaches, acupuncture can be a gentle, supportive way to prepare your body for birth. Starting around 36 weeks, labor preparation treatments help encourage optimal positioning of the baby, support hormonal balance, and promote relaxation—physically and emotionally. Many women report feeling more calm, rested, and ready for labor after these sessions. Acupuncture works in harmony with the natural rhythms of your body and can be a valuable addition to your birth plan. Annette can provide the treatments at Kruislaan or at home.
Several methods can be used, such as:
- Acupuncture/Acupressure
- Moxibustion
- Electronic Stimulation
- Massage techniques
The treatment doesn't guarantee that your labor will begin, but we'll do everything we can to prepare your body for labor and induce labor naturally.
