Pregnancy & Birth Acupuncture

Sometimes women make an appointment to see Lainey for acupuncture treatments at Family Tree Acupuncture at the Mount Eliza clinic to prepare them for birth. This normally starts at about 34-36 weeks gestation; however she will see you at any time to assist with any of the common pregnancy complaints that may occur.

During these sessions Lainey not only provides acupuncture services but reinforces the Bub & Bloom techniques and discusses any concerns you might have. The sessions also give a wonderful opportunity to do a relaxation visualisation whilst on the table. Lainey provides birth preparation acupuncture to help with cervical ripening, pelvic softening and hormonal balance.

She has assisted those to turn their breech babies and others who require help with natural induction when over due.
