Postpartum "mother warming"
Apr 11th, 2013 9:49pm
pregnancy & labour

In my quest to learn all that I could in order to prepare my body for pregnancy and, following that, to ‘know what to expect while expecting’, I neglected preparation for what was to follow birth. My attention was so focused on the preconception and birthing part of the story, somehow the very important post-partum chapter was all but forgotten. Through my experience of being an acupuncturist and working with pregnant, soon to be moms, this too often seems to be the case.

If you are interested in trying some gluten free baking and seeing if you feel better than when you eat wheat, these tips can help you get baking!

Add Walking to your daily routine!

 I am a big fan of walking. It’s a wonderful way to stay healthy, both physically and mentally. There are numerous benefits to the body that can only be obtained through walking regularly. This has been shown to reduce the risk of coronary heart disease, increase bone density, and help to increase flexibility and coordination. The WHO recently placed it’s recommendation to at least 120 minutes per week. However in this case, why not be an overachiever!

An interview with Stephanie Curran by Victoriamom.ca

At the Elements of Health Centre, one of our specialties is helping women to conceive with the support of Acupuncture and Traditional Chine Medicine (TCM). The very first step is always a western approach though, and it involves teaching women how to become familiar with their body’s natural signs and cues of fertility.
