Postpartum Support
After giving birth a mother's vital energy is generally depleted. Labor and childbirth are strenuous and often involve great energy expenditure and loss of blood. Immediately after birth the mother begins caring for her baby and generally gets very limited and interrupted sleep for some months. Mood disturbances are common and can be treated naturally, as can many other conditions commonly experienced postpartum.
Common Conditions Treated Postpartum
- Fatigue
- Body aches
- Depression & Anxiety
- Constipation
- Hemorrhoids

After giving birth, this is the time to strengthen your body and rebuild your energy using natural and effective therapies like acupuncture and herbs. Many herbal formulas can be taken postpartum even when breastfeeding and are safe for the child.
