Today I photographed a pre-birth acupuncture session. If you are like me and have never heard of such a thing, what pre-birth acupuncture does is help to increase the likelihood of delivering on the due date, reduces the time of labor, and substantially reduces the need for interventions and Cesarean sections.
Today’s session was done at SD Fertility Acupuncture and they specialize in fertility and pregnancy acupuncture. Being infertile myself I found the whole thing completely fascinating.
One of the things I learned was that certain points on the body are known to help the cervix soften and dilate and others aid in helping the ligaments relax and loosen for the easy passage of the baby.
Be sure to check out their website for more interesting facts.
