PREGNANCY ACUPUNCTURE

Bridget uses acupuncture to assist with a range of pregnancy-related conditions, offering women an alternative to taking medication. 

Also, to reduce the discomfort often regarded as part of a 'normal' pregnancy.​​

​

Acupuncture can help support women through their pregnancy by reducing or resolving unwanted side effects. 

 

Bridget regularly works with back pain, sciatica, pubic synthesis pain or 'lightening crotch,' nausea, muscle cramps, reflux, heartburn, excessive saliva, anxiety & stress, hypertension, anemia, fatigue & exhaustion, breach or posterior positions, and gestational diabetes.

 

Bridget also offers 'Pre-birth acupuncture' from 36 weeks, where we use acupuncture points and massage to help prepare the body for labour.

 

Bridget loves working with pregnancy and believes pregnant women are 'designed to heal' because of the increased blood volume, and finds treatments extremely rewarding.

​

Bridget was privileged to study under Dr. Debra Betts, working in the Hutt Valley Hospital Antenatal Clinic, helping women with the discomfort and complications of pregnancy.
