Birth Preparation Acupuncture.

Calm. Aligned. Confident.
Birth isn’t something to endure, it’s something you rise into. Together, we’ll get you there.
Benefits of Birth Preparation Acupuncture.
-
Cervical Readiness
Acupuncture is used to support cervical ripening, which may help your body prepare for labour and reduce the likelihood of going far beyond your due date.
-
Duration of Labour
Acupuncture may shorten the duration of labour and reduce the need for augmentation and intervention.
-
Pain Perception.
Acupuncture may help reduce the perception of pain and support your body’s natural coping mechanisms during labour.
-
Hormonal Regulation
Acupuncture is known to regulate the nervous system and may positively influence hormones like oxytocin and endorphins, helping you feel more grounded and calm.
What support looks like.
This work goes so much deeper than the needles.
With over 20 years of experience, I bring a deeply integrative approach to every session; combining Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine with optimal maternal positioning, yoga, breathwork, energy work, and evidence-based research.
Together, we gently peel back the layers, uncover and release the fears, beliefs, and stories, both inherited or internalised, that may be standing between you and the birth you desire.
This is where preparation becomes transformation.
You’ll feel supported, seen, and empowered; physically, mentally, and emotionally to step into your birth experience with strength and a calm confidence.
When to start.
Birth preparation Acupuncture.
Ideally commences weekly from 36 weeks gestation. This cadence allows the cumulative benefits of Acupuncture to build as you approach your due date. However, if you are already beyond 36 weeks, it’s never too late to start preparing!
VBAC Preparation.
When preparing for a vaginal birth after cesarean, it’s essential to honour and make space for the emotional impact of previous birth experiences. I recommend starting VBAC preparation from 35 weeks, or earlier if your birth stories are affecting your ability to enjoy this pregnancy or causing unnecessary anxiety around birth. I believe creating this gentle space allows us to work together in addressing fears, building confidence, and fostering a positive mindset for your upcoming birth experience.
Your journey is unique, and nurturing both your body and mind throughout this process is key to feeling empowered and ready to embrace the transformative experience of birth.
“We have the births we need to have to teach us what we need to know about ourselves.”
