ACUPUNCTURE AND PREGNANCY:


As the mother of two, I can intimately relate to the ups and downs of pregnancy. Using Chinese medicine during my pregnancy allowed me to find welcomed relief from my discomfort and added to my overall sense of wellbeing. I find great joy in caring for expecting mothers. I take the time to carefully listen to you and find the best treatment options to facilitate optimal health and comfort for you and your baby.

Acupuncture is a safe, comfortable and effective treatment option. It can care for the healthy mom, pre-existing conditions, along with many of the common issues that may develop during pregnancy.
Here are a few conditions that acupuncture can address during pregnancy:


  • Fatigue

  • Morning Sickness

  • Heartburn

  • Constipation

  • Hemorrhoids

  • Back Pain and Sciatica

  • Psychological issues


Other areas where acupuncture can be highly effective are with breech presentation, induction for post due date, and conditions that arise with post-partum disorder.

I saw Tyler after developing carpal tunnel syndrome during my pregnancy. As a Physician Assistant in dermatology, I really needed to be able to use my hands during procedures. She was able to keep the pain, numbness and tingling at a minimum which allowed me to keep working without any problems. I would highly recommend Tyler to any pregnant woman dealing with this. After my pregnancy, she has also helped with the occasional aches and pains that come along with holding a baby and getting little sleep. My hour in her office was a little piece of heaven that I would not otherwise get.
