This is a good article laying out the research on ALL the ways acupuncture can support fertility, pregnancy and the birthing time. It can provide relief for so many common pregnancy complaints, like nausea, back pain, swelling and even help control blood pressure and blood sugars.

Come see me and Rosanna Marshall! We love to support women during this special season of life!

3,000 years of medicine can not be wrong. An increasing number of women are turning to acupuncture for assistance with common pregnancy discomforts.

I am hosting an Arvigo Maya Abdominal Therapy- Level 1 Self Care Class at The Nesting Place Acupuncture and Wellness July 22-24. This class is designed for both the layperson and health care professionals. Completing this course is the prerequisite for taking the Professional Level 2 class. The teacher for this course, Anne Hirsch, is a home birth midwife in Seattle and an amazing teacher! This course was life changing for me. Since I have completed the professional training and use Maya Abdominal Therapy in my fertility and women's health acupuncture practice, everyone gets pregnant faster and has healthier pregnancies! It's wonderful knowledge to have for your own self care and also to share with your clients. This course offers CEUs for massage therapists, midwives, acupuncturists and other health care providers.

We are hosting a Maya Abdominal Massage Workshop taking place at The Nesting Place Acupuncture and Wellness October 4-6th. Health care providers (midwives, massage therapists, acupuncturists, nurses, etc) can receive continuing education credits for the class, but the class is open to the public. This is a self-care class (Level 1) class, so it's intended to help you learn the techniques to keep your own womb healthy and happy! It is a powerful healing system that I believe is beneficial for all birth workers and women in general to know about. It has helped many of my clients dealing with various women's health concerns, such as infertility, painful periods, endometriosis, healing from a cesarean birth.

The class is taught by homebirth midwife, Anne Hirsch, CPM, LM of Hearth & Home Midwifery in Seattle, WA.
Here's what she says about the class: "I am looking forward to meeting all of you and sharing this gentle, yet powerful technique for improving and maintaining your uterine/abdominal health. My intention for the weekend is to share important information within a nurturing and rejuvenating class structure. This is about SELF CARE - so we will be having a gentle schedule with hands on work on ourselves. This will be a very different experience than just a lecture class. You will feel refreshed and revived by the end, as well as be full of new knowledge to apply to own wellbeing."

Check out www.arvigotherapy.com for more info. Tonight is the deadline to get the early bird rate! Come get your uterus centered and healthy!! PM me or call 615-684-5874 if you have any questions.
