TCM for childbirth preparation and labour

[Guest guest]

Hello everyone,

 

I'm new to this list and 20 weeks pregnant, and would love to find out more

about the use of Chinese healing techniques (especially acupuncture and

moxibustion) for childbirth preparation and labour. Can anyone recommend any

good books or journal articles on the subject? Do you have any tips for

self-help - breathing, labour positions, relaxation techniques, etc? Hope to

hear from you soon.

 

Many thanks,

Gemma Burford

Check out the Bradley Method. It does not include acupuncture or chinese

medicine but is a very good program for natural childbirth. We used this method

with acupuncture, chinese medicine and homeopathy with great results
