Acupuncture in Davis, California
Three licensed acupuncturists, one with prenatal training, who work alongside your doctor or midwife and keep every visit gentle.
Stage by stage
Each stage brings different aches and different questions. Tell us where you are, and we plan the visit around it.
Tiredness, queasiness and a head full of questions. Visits are short and gentle, and we ask about your doctor or midwife first.
Low back and hip aches, sleep that is harder to find and a body that changes week by week. You lie on your side with pillows.
Heavy legs, a tired back and short nights. Visits are slow and unhurried, and you set the position and the pace.
Rest, soreness, feeding and sleep in pieces. Bring your baby: we see you in a recliner while they sleep or feed.
Sore shoulders and wrists from carrying and feeding, and tiredness that stays. Visits can fit around a nap.
Going back to work and to exercise while your body still feels different. Come when it suits you, and tell us how you feel.
The room
Visits begin with a conversation, and you can change position or stop at any point.
The room has a padded table, bolsters for lying on your side and under your knees, and a recliner for the weeks when lying flat is uncomfortable.
Pillows and bolsters for every stage
Room for a stroller and a baby seat
A partner or a friend can stay with you
Who sees whom
You see the same person from visit to visit, and you can ask for someone else at any time.
Licensed acupuncturist, founder, prenatal training
Aurelia opened the clinic. She sees people from the first weeks of pregnancy through the months after a birth, and she is the one with prenatal training. Ask her about pregnancy visits.
Licensed acupuncturist, postpartum visits
Cherry sees people after the baby has arrived, and your baby can come along. She works with sore shoulders, wrists and backs from carrying and feeding, and with sleep that comes in pieces.
Licensed acupuncturist, partners and ear seeds
Jaelyn sees partners, relatives and other adults, and anyone who wants a gentler first visit. She is the one to ask about ear seeds and about a visit without needles.

Many people do. Your acupuncturist explains the risks before the first needle: soreness, light bruising, feeling light-headed and, rarely, bleeding or infection. Some points are avoided in pregnancy. Tell us how far along you are, and tell your doctor or midwife that you are coming.
Most people feel a quick pinch, a dull ache or a warm, heavy feeling, and some feel nothing at the point. The needles are much thinner than the ones used for shots. If anything is too much, say so and we adjust or stop. Ear seeds use no needles at all.
Yes. Postpartum visits are made for it. Feed, change or hold your baby whenever you need to, and we will plan the visit around naps.
We take care of the visit with us and leave your prenatal and postpartum care to your own provider. We ask who you see, and with your permission we can send a short note. Questions about your pregnancy or your recovery go to them.
No. Keep taking everything your prescriber gave you, and tell us all that you take. Acupuncture works alongside your doctor's care, never in place of it.
How fees work explains what sets the fee, what a first visit includes and how we give you a written estimate before you come. Ask us when you book.
This form collects your name, how to reach you, the time of day you prefer and the message you write, and nothing else. We use it only to answer you and to book a visit.
