ACUPUNCTURE FOR BREECH BABY
THERAPEUTIC ACUPUNCTURE
FOR BREECH BABIES
Your midwife/doctor/health care provider has just told you that baby is breech.
Now What?
How is it possible that baby is not head down by now?
Thankfully, there is a very effective, gentle, safe and natural way to help encourage your baby to turn by using acupuncture techniques alongside moxibustion.
Both your body and your baby have an incredible intelligence, knowing what is best for you to have a safe, healthy delivery.
Moxibustion and acupuncture works with your body to help balance any imbalances that may be inhibiting the ideal position for labour & delivery. Neither technique forces anything to happen that your body is not up for or feels unsafe.
Acupuncture & moxibustion are both non invasive, safe, natural and effective.
SUGGESTED TREATMENT FREQUENCY
It is recommended to seek treatment as soon as you find out that your baby is in breech position after 32 weeks. A weekly treatment is usually recommended with a daily application of moxibustion done at home between appointments.
The ideal weeks to successfully turn a breech baby is considered 34-35 weeks gestation, however we are able to have success at later weeks of pregnancy with the approval of your health care provider.
Once baby has successful turned to the appropriate presentation we would then support you with our Pre-Birth and Birthing Program.
