My Specialized Training in Pregnancy Acupuncture
When you're pregnant, every decision about your care matters — including who you choose to support you holistically. Acupuncture is a beautiful way to ease discomfort, support your body’s natural rhythms, and stay grounded during pregnancy and postpartum. And while all licensed acupuncturists are trained in general care, I’ve chosen to go even deeper.
At Raku Acupuncture, I’ve pursued additional, specialized training through the MAMPS certification to help support people through the unique challenges and transitions of pregnancy — with care that’s both evidence-informed and rooted in traditional wisdom.
What Is the MAMPS Program?
MAMPS stands for Maternity Acupuncture Mentorship & Peersupport Program — a comprehensive certification designed to deepen clinical expertise in this area.
Through MAMPS, I’ve studied:
Safe, effective treatment strategies for each trimester
Holistic support for common symptoms like nausea, back pain, fatigue, and anxiety
Techniques to prepare the body for labor
Acupuncture for breech positioning and overdue pregnancies
Postpartum healing, emotional support, and hormonal recovery
This mentorship gave me the opportunity to study with experts in the field and develop a more nuanced understanding of how to work with the body during pregnancy — not just to avoid harm, but to truly promote wellness and ease.
Why This Matters for You
This extra training means I’m able to tailor each session to the specific needs of your stage of pregnancy, collaborate confidently with OBs and midwives, and hold space for everything you’re navigating — physically, emotionally, and energetically.
Whether you’re looking for relief from back pain or preparing for birth, my goal is to help you feel supported, grounded, and cared for through it all.
