Chinese Medicine for Post Miscarrage or Abortion
Acupuncture and Chinese Medicine for Morning Sickness
Modern physicians consider morning sickness to be a harmless discomfort and not indicative of underlying disease. TCM doctors understand that Morning Sickness is caused by rebellious stomach qi which is made to rise by the activity of gestation. It is treated effectively by acupuncture and herbs which are used to restore normal downward flow to the stomach qi.
