Why Moxibustion Could Be the Solution You’re Looking For

Moxibustion is a Traditional Chinese Medicine practice that involves burning a herb called mugwort to stimulate specific acupuncture points on the body. This gentle heat therapy can encourage fetal movement, helping your breech baby to turn head-down naturally.

Review from Sarah praising Deanna Thomas's moxibustion treatments for turning breech baby

What is Moxa and How Does It Work for Breech Babies?

Moxa, also known as mugwort, is a herb used in Traditional Chinese Medicine for its warming properties. When used in moxibustion, dried moxa is burned near specific acupuncture points on the body to stimulate healing and improve energy flow.

How Moxa Works for Breech Babies

For breech babies, moxibustion involves applying heat from burning moxa to an acupuncture point located on the little toe. This specific point is believed to encourage fetal movement and can help the baby turn into the head-down position. The gentle warmth stimulates the body's energy, promoting movement and helping the baby to shift naturally.

What to Expect During a Moxibustion Session

When you come in for a moxibustion session with Deanna Thomas, you can expect a calm and supportive environment. Here’s a step-by-step overview of what typically happens:

Consultation: Deanna will start with a consultation to understand your pregnancy journey, any concerns you may have, and to explain the moxibustion process in detail.
Preparation: You will be asked to lie down comfortably. Deanna will then locate the acupuncture point on your little toe.
Moxibustion: Deanna will light the moxa stick and hold it close to the acupuncture point, allowing the gentle heat to stimulate the area. This process is painless and many find it relaxing.
Monitoring: Throughout the session, Deanna will monitor you and your baby’s movements, ensuring you are comfortable and relaxed.
Aftercare: Deanna will provide guidance on how you can continue the treatment at home, including safety instructions and techniques for best results. We welcome you to come with a partner, as we can also show them how to do a treatment for you at home. We have kits available that you can purchase and take away.
Studies show that moxibustion for turning a breech baby is typically performed once or twice daily for optimal results. The duration of each session is usually around 15-20 minutes, and the treatment is generally continued for 7-14 days.
Each session typically lasts around 30-45 minutes. Many women report feeling relaxed during and after the treatment, and some notice their baby starting to move into the head-down position after a few sessions.

By choosing moxibustion with Deanna Thomas, you are opting for a natural, non-invasive method to help turn your breech baby, supported by a professional who combines expertise with personal experience.
