The women of YinOva played a huge role in my pregnancy. In the early days I used acupuncture to treat my morning sickness. In my last trimester when my back hurt acupuncture provided relief and in the last month they used acupuncture to prepare me for labor. My daughter, Emily, was born after a relatively easy labor and some of the credit for that goes to the YinOva ladies. Thank you.— Susan, Mom, New York
YINOVA GROWING — Staying Strong through Pregnancy and Delivery
Dear All —
When I was running the acupuncture program in a hospital we started giving women acupuncture in labor. Our patients loved the treatment so much that we ended up applying for a grant to study acupuncture during childbirth. That study is still going on so stay tuned for the results.

Morning sickness
Fatigue

Heart burn
In addition, we have a soothing herbal balm for hemorrhoids that Moms-to-be swear by!
Our practitioners are available to reassure, support and guide you through each trimester. In the last few weeks of pregnancy, we help you get in shape for labor, softening your pelvic muscles and ligaments and giving you an energy boost before the big day. Many New York obstetricians send patients to YinOva to use moxa to help turn breech babies. This is a technique that has been used for centuries and is gaining increasing respect here in the west as research shows that it has a 67% success rate.
