Pregnancy & Postpartum Care

Acupuncture is a safe and gentle way to optimise your health and keep your body in balance throughout pregnancy and the postpartum time. Every pregnancy is unique, and Chinese Medicine’s rich and complex diagnostic system honors this complexity of motherhood. Consider acupuncture for pregnancy or pregnancy acupuncture perth.

At The ON Acupuncture, we meet expectant mothers exactly where they are in the moment, whether encountering first trimester morning sickness, managing the aches and pains of a body in motion, or preparing for the incredible work of childbirth.

Studies show that acupuncture for pregnancy as a routine pre-birth treatment leads to less medical intervention and more efficient childbirth. Acupuncture induction was recently shown in a study to reduce medical inductions by 35-43%, epidurals by 31% and emergency Cesareans by 32%.

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to Your Most Common Questions

Find answers to common questions about acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, treatment sessions, bookings, and what to expect during your visit with our experienced practitioners.

What is acupuncture?

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine treatment that involves inserting very fine needles into specific points of the body to support natural healing, improve circulation and help restore balance. It is commonly used to support pain relief, stress management, sleep, fertility and overall wellbeing.

Is acupuncture painful?

Most patients experience minimal discomfort during acupuncture treatment. The needles used are extremely fine, and many people describe the sensation as mild tingling, warmth or slight pressure. Treatments are generally relaxing and well tolerated.

What conditions can acupuncture help support?

Acupuncture is commonly used to support a wide range of health concerns including back pain, neck pain, headaches, migraines, stress, anxiety, sleep difficulties, fertility support, muscle tension and general wellbeing.

How many acupuncture sessions will I need?

The number of sessions varies depending on your health concerns, symptoms and treatment goals. Some patients notice improvement after a few sessions, while chronic or long-term conditions may require ongoing care and a personalised treatment plan.

Is acupuncture safe?

When performed by qualified and registered practitioners, acupuncture is considered a safe treatment. Our clinic follows professional hygiene and safety standards using sterile single-use needles for every treatment.

What is the difference between acupuncture and dry needling?

Acupuncture is based on traditional Chinese medicine principles and focuses on supporting overall balance and wellbeing. Dry needling is generally used to target muscle trigger points and musculoskeletal tension using a different clinical approach.

What is Chinese herbal medicine?

Chinese herbal medicine uses carefully selected herbal formulations traditionally used to support various health concerns and overall wellbeing. Treatments are personalised according to each patient’s symptoms and health goals.
