Follow-Up Acupuncture Appointment
Length: 60 minutes
$115.00
Follow-up appointments build on your personalized treatment plan. Consistency is so important to make lasting changes.
Ongoing treatments are used to support your body over time and are tailored to your specific needs and stage of care. I give each patient a personalized treatment plan.
Treatment frequency varies, but many patients begin with weekly visits and adjust as their body responds and their goals evolve.
We’ll check in on your progress and adjust as needed to support you. Each session includes acupuncture and may also include additional therapies (cupping, moxa, herbs, or acupressure homework) to support your goals.
These sessions are your time to rest, regulate, and be supported. -
Labor Preparation Appointment
Length: 60 minutes
$135.00
Looking for Labor Induction with Acupuncture? Try this instead.A focused 60-minute acupuncture appointment for new patients in the final weeks of pregnancy. This treatment is designed to support your body as it prepares for labor by encouraging cervical readiness, optimal fetal positioning, healthy blood flow, and relaxation.
Rather than thinking of acupuncture as a way to “induce” labor, I like to think of this care as labor preparation and supporting the natural changes already happening in your body as you approach birth.
Labor preparation acupuncture is ideally started around 36–37 weeks.
Already closer to your due date? That’s okay, too. Acupuncture can still be a supportive addition at any stage of late pregnancy.

Is acupuncture safe during pregnancy?
Yes, acupuncture is generally safe during pregnancy when performed by a trained and experienced practitioner.
In pregnancy, treatments are adapted to each stage and focus on gentle, supportive care. I also have advanced certification (9 additional months on top of my Master’s Degree of four years) specific to perinatal care. This is not a common experience level for most acupuncturists and I chose to study advanced maternal care because so many of my fertility patients wanted to continue care once they conceived.
Your treatment is always tailored to what is safe and appropriate for both you and your baby. Acupuncture is often used to help with common pregnancy symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, pain, sleep disturbances, and stress, and can also be supportive as you prepare for labor.
If you have any specific concerns or a higher-risk pregnancy, we can talk through your history and coordinate care so you feel comfortable and fully supported.
I offer a free 15-minute phone consultation if you’d like to connect and make sure this feels like the right fit before getting started.
