Postpartum and Regaining Health

Chinese medicine strongly believes that to preserve her long-term health, mothers must take special care during the critical recovery time following birth. We offer postpartum treatment to help a full recovery to pre-pregnancy health. In addition to usual obstetrical care, acupuncture can:

• Rebuild strength depleted by delivery, blood loss, sleep deprivation, and nursing
• Prevent postpartum depression
• Relieve pain and promote healing from hemorrhoids, tearing, C-sections, episiotomies, and epidurals
• Enhance milk production and prevent and treat mastitis or duct blockage
• Prevent scar tissue from C-sections
• Help the pelvic floor to recover
• Treat urinary leakage
• Treat irregular bleeding postpartum
• Regulate postpartum thyroid function
• treat neck and back pain post partum
• ​prevent early return of menstruation
