Your recovery matters — and it deserves just as much care as pregnancy or birth. At Acumamas, our postpartum acupuncture in Vancouver is designed to support the whole you: body, mind, and heart. Whether you’re days, weeks, or months into new parenthood, acupuncture can help replenish energy, restore hormonal balance after birth, and ease the physical and emotional shifts that follow delivery. Treatments are tailored to your birth story and unique recovery timeline, offering natural postpartum support for fatigue, anxiety, digestive changes, sleep disruptions, and lactation concerns. Grounded in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), this gentle therapy provides a moment of rest and realignment—so you can heal in your own time, with support that truly meets you where you are.
Postpartum acupuncture is a gentle, natural treatment designed to support your recovery after childbirth. Rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), it helps replenish energy, regulate hormones, and address both physical and emotional imbalances during the postnatal period.
Our acupuncture for postpartum recovery is often used to support:
Some clients begin within the first few weeks postpartum, while others start later depending on how they’re feeling physically and emotionally. There’s no “perfect” time — we tailor your care to your birth experience and current needs, whether you had a vaginal delivery or cesarean.
Yes. Acupuncture is safe while breastfeeding and may even support lactation and milk production. We avoid any acupuncture points or herbs that could interfere with your milk supply and focus on nourishing, restorative care.
Absolutely. Many clients seek natural postpartum support for feelings of anxiety, overwhelm, or sadness. Acupuncture may help regulate your nervous system, improve sleep, and rebalance hormones — all of which support emotional well-being.
Not at all. Healing has no expiration date. Many of our clients begin postpartum acupuncture in Vancouver several months or even a year after giving birth, especially if they’re still feeling depleted, emotional, or ungrounded.
