ACUNEEDLING™
Acuneedling™ is the needling of acu-points by a Registered Midwife. Acuneedling™ works on the meridians of the body to balance and harmonise 'Qi' - ones life force. Working within our scope of practice, midwives trained in acuneedling™ can assist with conditions of pregnancy, labour, birth and the early postpartum.
With over 10 years of midwifery experience, I can offer education and emotional support to help build your confidence to birth without fear. Sessions are holistic and address relaxation techniques, optimal maternal positioning including Rebozo and allow you the time to connect with your breath and your growing baby throughout the session.
Acuneedling™ may support the symptoms of emotional concerns, fetal malpresentation and malposition, nausea and vomiting, heartburn, constipation, haemorrhoids/varicosities, insomnia, itching, thrush, back/hip/symphysis pubis pain & sciatica, oedema, anaemia, intrauterine growth restriction, pregnancy induced hypertension, threatened miscarriage, intrauterine death, retained or delayed placenta, postnatal mother warming, after-birth pain, milk let-down and mastitis. More chronic complaints may benefit from several treatments - please contact me if you would like to discuss further.
