Gentle, personalised acupuncture support throughout pregnancy

Pregnancy is a time of significant physical and emotional change. Many women seek acupuncture during pregnancy as a gentle, supportive treatment to help them feel more comfortable and balanced throughout this important stage of life.

With a background as a registered nurse and over 15 years' experience as an acupuncturist, Fiona brings a calm, professional and compassionate approach to supporting women during pregnancy.

 

How can acupuncture support pregnancy?

 

Pregnancy acupuncture is commonly sought by women looking for support with:

• Pregnancy-related aches and pains

• Lower back discomfort

• Pelvic and hip discomfort

• Stress and relaxation during pregnancy

• Nausea and digestive symptoms

• General wellbeing and preparation for birth

Every pregnancy is unique, so Fiona takes time to understand your experience, health history and any concerns before tailoring your treatment.

 

Acupuncture for labour preparation

 

Some women choose to include acupuncture in the later stages of pregnancy as part of their preparation for birth. Fiona can discuss whether acupuncture may be appropriate for you during the final weeks of pregnancy and provide treatment based on your individual circumstances.

 

Your safety and comfort are always the priority. Fiona works alongside your existing maternity care and encourages you to continue following the advice and care provided by your midwife or healthcare team.
