Support in pregnancy
Pregnancy can be both physically and emotionally demanding and most women experience highs and lows.

Acupressure in Labour
Acupressure can be safely used in labour to help assist with the birth. Simple techniques can be used by you and your birth partner to relieve pain, help induce labour or keep things going, and to support breast feeding. You can download a free guide to using acupressure techniques, written by leading acupuncturist Debra Betts. I recommend downloading the guide a few weeks before you are due and get your partner familiar with the techniques.
