Alternative Maternity by Nicky Wesson
There is a growing interest among pregnant women in alternative medicine, with the use of certain therapies and home remedies becoming commonplace. However, care must be taken at this physically sensitive time. This book explores the benefits of a wide range of topics including: choosing the sex of your baby; morning sickness; turning breech babies; the natural induction of labour; easing labour; problems with breast-feeding; and colic and sleeplessness in babies. Therapies covered include: acupuncture; homeopathy; aromatherapy; medical herbalism; and cranial osteopathy. Safe remedies for home use are also given, with advice on appropriate therapies for serious or long-standing problems.
