Postpartum Support
If you’re feeling depleted after giving birth, don’t worry - that’s totally normal. In TCM terms, it’s natural because you’ve shared some of your jing (or essence) with your new baby. Fatigue, stress, and depression are common and very treatable with acupuncture and herbs. TCM can also help with lactation issues and can help your body heal, stop bleeding, and return to regular menstrual cycles when you’re ready, whether you want more children or want to be your healthiest self for the exciting journey ahead.
Issues that can be supported by acupuncture and herbal medicine include:
Prolonged bleeding
Lactation issues (insufficient or excess)
Stress and fatigue
Postpartum depression
Hormonal balance
Postpartum Bell's palsy
Fertility support, if you plan to have more children in the future
