Postnatal Care: the 4th Trimester
The time following the birth is often overlooked in the overall plan, but it is a crucial time in a woman's life, when she needs to be looked after properly in order to allow her body to rearrange and recover itself, whilst pouring her energy into the new baby. Acupuncture, moxibustion and massage combine beautifully to promote recovery and healing, and help the new mother remain strong and vital. Dietary and herbal advice may be given for the purposes of “blood-building”. In cases of insufficient or blocked lactation, wound healing, scar tissue repair, birth trauma and postnatal depression, the acupuncture treatment offers specific assistance, along with some time to rest, digest, and recharge.
Your baby is welcome to come along to the acupuncture sessions. I will sweet-talk him/her while you have a nourishing rest as part of the acupuncture treatment.
