Acupuncture medical consultation

In addition to modern traditional medicine, our midwives maintain contact with naturopathic medicinal procedures. One important procedure is to make use of acupuncture.

It has long been proved that acupuncture has a positive effect on the uterus not only in the sensation of pain, but also on the return back to normal size. Acupuncture increases the activity which prepares the cervix for birth and therefore shortens the time in labour.

Appointments

Treatment with acupuncture starts in the 36th week and takes place once a week until the actual birth. Please do not forget here that you have to register with the Midwives Medical Consultation (best in the 32nd week of pregnancy) to be able to take part in the acupuncture medical consultation.

You can book the appointment conveniently via our online tool (see below). If you have any questions about the appointment, we can be reached by phone at +49 221 479 53 00.

Important information

For all visitors the temperature is measured and a corona questionnaire is filled out, this of course takes time. Therefore, we ask you to come about 15 - 20 minutes before the actual appointment, so that we can keep to the planned appointments. Thank you very much.
