Nausea during pregnancy

Complaints: This patient was 6 weeks pregnant and had a
constant nausea all day and night. She had a low appetite and even drinking
water was difficult. In addition, she had a chronic tightness in neck and sacro-iliac
area.

Acupuncture: Right-side yin horary points in Wood-Order of
LR1, HT8, SP3, LU8, and KD10.

Treatment process: After the first treatment, the nausea had
immediately subsided, and she ate a large amount of dinner that evening. She
woke up next morning with less tightness in neck and sacro-iliac area than usual.
After the second treatment, the symptoms were even less.

Discussion: Acupuncture is quite safe during pregnancy and
can be effective even more than chemical medicine.
