Try Acupuncture to relieve Morning Sickness

Research from the Women’s and Children’s Hospital and Adelaide University, Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology has now shown that acupuncture is an extremely effective treatment for morning sickness in early pregnancy.

Nausea and/or vomiting is a common experience for a high percentage of women in early pregnancy. Some women experience these symptoms throughout the entire pregnancy. These symptoms can affect the quality of life for these expectant mothers leading to distress and anxiety.

Luckily, research has shown acupuncture treatment can be an effective tool to relieve the nausea. In some cases one treatment can produce significant changes.
