The First Trimester

The first trimester is an important time of change and adjustment. Acupuncture provides gentle, individualised support during early pregnancy, helping to promote comfort, relaxation, and overall wellbeing.

Treatments are tailored to your specific needs and are designed to support you through the physical and emotional changes that can occur during the first 12 weeks of pregnancy.

First trimester acupuncture may help support:

  • Nausea and morning sickness
  • Fatigue and low energy
  • Stress, anxiety, and emotional wellbeing
  • Digestive discomfort and bloating
  • Sleep disturbances
  • General wellbeing during early pregnancy

Weekly treatments are often recommended during the first trimester, particularly if you are experiencing symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, anxiety or have conceived through fertility treatment.

As symptoms improve and the pregnancy progresses, treatments may be spaced out to every two weeks or as needed, depending on your individual circumstances.
