With the increasing fertility issues, many acupuncture practitioners feel hesitant about needling patients during the gestational period, although Classical Chinese medicine has given us instructions as how to follow and assist a normal pregnancy, as well as treatment protocols for pathologies that may arise during this time.
This lecture covers the energetics involved in conception, the 10 lunar months of pregnancy, with life-style, dietary and acupuncture recommendations. Acupuncture protocols are proposed for pre-birth preparation, and birthing assistance (when this is possible), as well as the treatment of some common pathologies that may appear during pregnancy.
