Does research support acupuncture in the treatment of threatened miscarriage?
Threatened miscarriage is a common complication of early pregnancy and increases the risk of miscarriage or premature labor.
A study examined the viability of acupuncture, including medical self-care advice, compared to the control receiving touch intervention and medical self-care advice.
For women receiving acupuncture, there was a statistically significant reduction in threatened miscarriage symptoms including bleeding, cramping, and back pain compared with the control.
Healthcare continues evolving to less-invasive, natural, and drug-free methods, placing acupuncture as a first-line complementary healthcare choice.
Remember, the American Acupuncture Council (AAC) offers an unparalleled track record in acupuncture risk management.
There is a reason acupuncturists have trusted AAC with their business for 50 years.
