Soon to be momma? 🤰
Did you know there are specific point protocols which have been researched and proven for 1) cervical ripening and 2) labour induction?!

At 38 weeks pregnant, and very uncomfortable.. Kristina opted for the labour induction protocol rather than a cervical sweep to get things moving along 🤓

You can start cervical ripening appointments weekly at 36 weeks - this protocol has been proven to reduce the amount of time spent in labour, reduce the amount of pain experienced in labour, and helps to assist cervical softening and dilation.

Treatment today provided by the one and only Dakota 😊

The back-shu (transporting) points. 🤓
The points just lateral to your spine in line with the lower border of the corresponding spinous process are heavy hitters in Acupuncture. They are located at approximately the same anatomical level as their related organs. E.g the kidney shu point is lateral to the spinous process of L2 at the highest point of the erectors (Heart at T5, Lung at T3 and so on).

In Chinese Medicine, they connect the exterior (meridians/fascia) with the interior (organs) and are often used for excess or deficiencies within the organ system they connect to.

The best part? In Western Medicine, needle stimulation at a particular spinal segment directly affects the associated organ neurologically because the same spinal segment innervates both organ and musculature where the back-shu point is located.

How on earth did they figure this out? 🤔 🤯
No idea. 😂 As acupuncturists and Chinese Medicine nerds, we trust the 2,000+ years of empirical data that TCM has collected. Time and time again in clinic, we see it all the time. As more time passes, more studies and research have shown that these guys were on to something! We 💜 Chinese Medicine!
