Did you know there are ways to get through pregnancy with less nausea and vomiting without harming the health of your baby?
For thousands of years people have used acupuncture as a natural remedy for morning sickness. Herbal medicine can provide some natural relief as well.
According to Chinese Medicine, women are more prone to nausea and vomiting in pregancy because of what is know as rebellious stomach energy. You see, ordinarily the energy of the stomach descends in healthy individuals, but when the body is told to hold onto the baby rather than descend its energy in menstruation, the liver (which rules the diaphram and directionality of energy) can get congested. This congestion will effect the earth energy related to the stomach, especially if there is any sort of weakness there, and cause the stomach energy to rebel upward.
Acupuncture points such as Pericardium 6, Ren 17 and Ren 12 can be helpful in reversing the stomach's rebellion. Herbs like ginger can be helpful to reduce the phlegm and dampness that are also common in pregnancy. A qualified acupuncturist can needle points and prescribe herbs that will help you feel better without harming the growing fetus in any way.

Hi,
ReplyDeleteI hope you are well. I wanted to share a personal experience and a referral that may be helpful to anyone exploring alternative or herbal treatment options. In August 2010 I was diagnosed with brain cancer and my wife was diagnosed with breast cancer. A close friend recommended Dr. Jekawo, a traditional herbal practitioner in West Africa, and gave me his contact information.
I contacted Dr. Jekawo and he provided a guarantee that his herbal medicine would cure my brain cancer, my wife’s breast cancer, and herpes completely. He asked for payment to prepare the herbal medicines, which I paid. Within seven working days he shipped the herbal medicines and gave us instructions to take them for 21 days. We followed his instructions exactly, and after completing the 21-day course both my wife and I experienced a complete resolution of our symptoms. Because of our experience, I want to recommend Dr. Jekawo to others seeking help for cancer, herpes, diabetes, Parkinson’s disease, COPD, hepatitis, or similar conditions.
If you would like to contact him directly, his email address is [www.drjekawo.com](drjekawo@gmail.com
