Acupuncture & Pregnancy: Post-natal
After childbirth, acupuncture can play a crucial role in supporting recovery and overall well-being. Here are some ways in which acupuncture treatments can assist during this time:
- Fatigue: New mothers often experience fatigue due to disrupted sleep patterns and the demands of caring for their newborn. Acupuncture can help alleviate fatigue and restore energy levels.
- Post-natal Depression: Acupuncture may contribute to managing post-natal depression by promoting relaxation, reducing stress, and balancing hormones. It complements other therapeutic approaches and provides emotional support.
- Constipation: Postpartum constipation can be uncomfortable. Acupuncture can stimulate digestion, regulate bowel movements, and relieve constipation.
- Uterine Bleeding: Acupuncture may help regulate uterine bleeding after childbirth. It supports the body’s natural healing processes and encourages proper uterine involution.
- Breastfeeding Problems:
- Mastitis: Acupuncture can reduce inflammation and pain associated with mastitis, a common condition where breast tissue becomes inflamed.
- Insufficient Lactation: Acupuncture points related to lactation can enhance milk production and improve breastfeeding success.
