Pregnancy is a time when women experience many different problems. Often practitioners, both allopathic and complementary are reluctant to treat during pregnancy for fear of negatively affecting the growing baby. Women are also often reluctant to take medicine internally for the same reason. 

Acupuncture is a great, safe and effective way to help women through pregnancy as comfortable as they can be.
Acupuncture can treat all sorts of problems that occur during pregnancy, including nausea and pain, as well as to help labor be shorter, easier and have less interventions. In this course we will not only look at the research but focus on practical techniques as well as tap into some of Kaleb Montgomery’s extensive clinic experience in the area of fertility, pregnancy and labor.
