Prenatal chiropractic care helps expectants mothers to stay flexible and prepare women for live birth. Furthermore, acupuncture has been proven effective in treating a variety of conditions from helping to relieve nausea during pregnancy, to supporting fertility, to relieving pain associated with periods, and even reducing menopause symptoms. The following lists how we can help with the array of symptoms you may be feeling:
- Pregnancy: Nausea during pregnancy, or hyperemesis, is a common condition. Studies show that acupuncture can be helpful, in addition to other medications, in relieving nausea. Acupuncture and Chiropractic are also great options to manage pregnancy discomfort and promote muscle relaxation throughout the pregnancy.
- Fertility: Although extensive research still needs to be done, studies have shown acupuncture may help with conceiving. According to the American Society of Reproductive Medicine, acupuncture may help relieve some of the side effects associated with fertility drugs (such as bloating and nausea) and promote relaxation. Research also shows that for patients undergoing In Vitro Fertilization, utilizing acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer can aid in increasing pregnancy rates.
- Pain Conditions: Acupuncture has been proven in studies to help with conditions like dysmenorrhea (menstrual cramps), adenomyosis, and endometriosis. Pain is regulated through our nervous system, and our nervous system is made up of energy. When that energy becomes blocked, we can experience pain. Acupuncture has been shown to help unblock the energy and trigger the release of endorphins to help with pain management.
- Menopause: During menopause, women experience a drop in estrogen levels and a spike in cortisol levels. Acupuncture can target the adrenal gland and help reduce cortisol levels, which in turn can help alleviate symptoms like hot flashes, night sweats, and mood disturbances.
