TRADITIONAL CHINESE MEDICINE FOR MISCARRIAGE SUPPORT:

Miscarriages are incredibly common, unfortunately, and it can be an isolating experience with emotions of intense grief, guilt, and shame. 1 in 4 women who are pregnant have a miscarriage.

Traditional Chinese Medicine holds miscarriages as equally impactful, emotionally and physically, as birth with the compounded aspects of grief. The Chinese Medicine approach encourages women to recover with dietary and lifestyle recommendations to nurture the body and restore energy.

First and foremost, one of the most important things a woman can do is give herself time and space to grieve, reach out to loved ones for support, and know that they are not alone.

In the US, one million women miscarry every year, and more and more women and families are sharing their experiences. It’s also important to note that the partners are going through a loss as well, with grief to navigate and process, and that everyone grieves in their own way.

Miscarriage acupuncture treatments and custom herbal formulas are used to nourish the body, help generate blood and qi, and alleviate anxiety, depression, and grief.

After experiencing a miscarriage, the body will return to its normal menstrual cycle as soon as the pregnancy hormone is out of your system. Many women offer themselves three months or longer to restore and strengthen their bodies.

85% of women who have suffered a miscarriage will have healthy pregnancies and births. The best time to try to start getting pregnant is when you are emotionally and physically ready.
