PREGNANCY / POSTPARTUM
Pregnancy is a period when medications should generally be avoided. During this time, common conditions such as nausea, low back pain, headaches, migraines, insomnia, and fatigue can be safely and effectively treated with Traditional Chinese Medicine. Renata Nunes offers gentle acupuncture and holistic therapies in London designed to relieve these symptoms naturally, supporting the health and well-being of both mother and baby.
Indications
1st trimester (Up to 12 week scan)
Acupuncture is recommended every week to two weeks, up to 12 weeks, to reduce the chances of miscarriage and to ensure good blood quality and circulation for you and your baby. It is also useful for reducing the effects of stress and worry, and is commonly used to help alleviate common conditions of early pregnancy such as morning sickness and fatigue.
After 12 weeks, Renata will evaluate and recommend the correct treatment.
The postpartum period is an intense and sensitive time marked by significant physical and psycho-emotional changes. According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, childbirth can cause physical and emotional imbalances due to the considerable loss of fluids, blood, and energy. New mothers are encouraged to eat well, rest whenever possible, and avoid unnecessary strain to support recovery. For those facing physical or emotional challenges during postpartum, gentle acupuncture treatments in London can help restore balance, promote healing, and support overall well-being during this crucial phase.
