At Family Wellness Acupuncture, our approach to maternity acupuncture is as unique as your pregnancy journey. Here’s how our treatments work to support you through each stage:

Personalized Treatment from the Start
Your first visit is all about understanding your specific needs and goals during pregnancy. We discuss everything that’s important for your maternity journey. Our team then crafts a customized treatment plan, focusing on ensuring a healthy and comfortable pregnancy for you and your baby. This plan also includes postnatal care, preparing you for a smooth transition after childbirth.

Adapting to Your Changing Needs
Pregnancy is a time of constant change, and our treatments reflect that. We work on a trimester-by-trimester basis, recognizing that your needs may shift as your pregnancy progresses. Whether it’s supportive care for general well-being or more frequent treatments to address specific challenges, we adjust your plan accordingly.

During each trimester, and especially if any complications arise, we may recommend treatments 1-2 times per week. We continually reassess your plan each month and after every trimester, ensuring it’s always aligned with your current needs, right up until you go into labor.
