I provide acupuncture and other modalities to women with a safe, natural,  approach to address various symptoms and imbalances during pregnancy. These treatments can help support overall well-being as women navigate this transformative time.

So much of pregnancy care is focused on the baby — and rightfully so. But I believe that equal attention is given to the woman carrying that pregnancy: her body, her nervous system, her hormones, and her capacity to recover.

As a Santa Barbara practitioner trained in acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), and functional medicine, I offer continuous, whole-person care that supports you, the mother, from preconception through postpartum recovery.

​

TCM, along with acupuncture, has long understood that a mother's wellbeing is the foundation everything else is built on. When her body is supported — digestion working well, sleep restored, stress regulated, blood and energy replenished — she's better equipped for the physical demands of pregnancy, labor, and the recovery that follows. Treatment is tailored to where you are: easing nausea or pain in early pregnancy, preparing the body for labor in the third trimester, or rebuilding strength, hormone balance, and emotional steadiness in the fourth trimester and beyond.

​

This is care that doesn't end when the baby arrives. Postpartum recovery, known as the fourth trimester — physically, hormonally, and emotionally — is treated with the same seriousness as the pregnancy itself. With access to acupuncture, herbal medicine, yoga therapy, and nervous system-focused techniques like emotional clearing using Neuro Emotional Technique (NET) all from one provider, the focus stays where it belongs: on you, the mother, at every stage.

​

NET can also support so many issues like anxiety, sleep and postpartum depression and more.
