Guest guest Posted November 6, 2008 Report Share Posted November 6, 2008 I pretty routinely needle SI 3 and Bl 62 for back pain in pregnancy and use K 3, St 36 for fatigue. However, I do not needle on the lower back. The one complaint that seems difficult to treat is constipation in pregnancy, I never had good results with that. What do people do for it?

A teacher of my suggest only to use back shu and ear points. (ofc also pc 6) and suggested also that points on the leggs during the first 3 months have a tendecy to pull the energy downwards. I am curious what other people think about this. rick ________________________________ Andreakos Venetia <dokterandreakos Chinese Medicine Thursday, November 6, 2008 4:01:31 PM TCM - Hi I have a 8 weeks pregnant patient consulting for vomiting, every day, most of the day. except Pc 6, CV 12, ST 36, DU 20 and DU 23 to calm the spirit any other usefull points?
