@hawthorneacupuncture: Gallbladder 21 is one of the strongest points for tension headaches, migraines, neck and shoulder pain, but it comes with a big disclaimer. This point has a powerful downward-moving effect, which is why it’s contraindicated in pregnancy until the very end when we want that downward movement to prep for labor. It’s even traditionally used for retained placenta, though in modern births that’s a rare situation. #acupuncture #chinesemedicine #acupuncturepoints #gb21 #headacherelief #migrainehelp #neckpainrelief #shoulderpainrelief #prenatalacupuncture #laborprep #birthsupport #acupuncturist #pregnancytips #naturalmedicine #holistichealth
