East Bay Acupuncture is here to support you at every stage of your pregnancy
Acupuncture during pregnancy is safe and gentle, especially when offered by prenatal acupuncturists like our team here at East Bay Acupuncture. With individualized and holistic care, it’s possible for you to feel your best during pregnancy. When we see you through all trimesters of your pregnancy, we can proactively address any concerns or complications if they arise.
Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are powerful additions to your OBGYN and/or midwife's care plan, especially if you are interested in preventative and natural medicine remedies. We help clients with many conditions, including migraines, allergies, acute illnesses, pain exacerbated by pregnancy, stress, and anxiety, to minimize symptoms and treat the root causes safely and naturally.
