Moxibustion in pregnancy

By Archived User | Updated: Dec 31, 2021 | Published: Dec 31, 2021

Hi,

Is moxibustion save in the first months of pregnancy?

Is it safe to do acupuncture and moxibustion on REN 4,3,2 during the initial stages of pregnancy?

thanx

No, both acupuncture and moxa are not good for Ren4,3,2 during preganency.
