Moxibustion

Service Description

During your session, I will guide you on how to safely and effectively use moxibustion to encourage your baby into a head-down (cephalic) position. It’s important to bring your partner or a support person, as applying the technique correctly on your own can be difficult. I will give you a treatment plan, incorporating moxibustion once or twice a day for a set number of days. You’ll be provided with enough moxa sticks to complete your treatment regimen at home. I will also demonstrate positions and movements that may help support your baby’s optimal positioning known as ‘biomechanics’. These techniques are used in conjunction with the moxibustion to encourage rotation of your baby, and there are things you can incorporate into your day to day life too. Throughout your treatment and afterwards, I will be available to offer ongoing support and guidance. You’ll also receive balanced information about all available options for breech presentation, helping you make informed choices about your care. Your appointment will usually take between 30 minutes and 1 hour.
