5 Fast Tips to Heal from the Loss of Your Baby

Miscarriage is a devastating loss to most women and the further along the more haunting the emotions are that follow. Here are 5 Fast tips to help women after they have miscarried whether it happened yesterday or 10 years ago.


1. Acupuncture treats both physiological and emotional imbalances so the best thing to do is to resume treatment. Some women come in while they are in the midst of mis-carrying so acupuncture can reduce and sometime eliminate the cramping, stabbing pain. Others come in days later and we address the grieving aspect of the loss. 2. Have a ceremony or even a burial. This helps bring closure and honors the life you feel so connected to.
3. Join a Support Group- Resolve.org, Empty Cradle or your local hospital may have a group where you can share your sorrow and heal your heart.
4. If Anxiety and Depression sets in see your Herbalist for a personalized prescription to treat the emotional aspects of the heart for joy and the lungs for grief.
5. Once pregnant again, get acupuncture to support pregnancy and prevent miscarriage.
