Miscarriage care and recovery

Acupuncturelondon has been working for over 10 years offering a specialised service for the recovery of miscarriage.

  • Those who have experienced a miscarriage, or a number of miscarriages, are often anxious to find out the reasons why.
  • A miscarriage acknowledged as ‘just a late period’ can be distressing, and does not take into account the experiences associated with adjusting to the idea of being pregnant.
  • Early detection methods have consequences for earlier bonding with pregnancy.
  • Often women are advised to “just keep trying”, especially if they have already had a successful pregnancy - without the offer of finding reasons for any pregnancy which has been lost.
  • NHS testing is not normally undertaken until there have been at least three miscarriages.
  • Miscarriage can cause exhaustion. It can temporarily prevent retrieval of a sense of normality to life.
  • During the MYSS research project in 2001 it was clear that women’s memories of miscarriage are unique and rarely forgotten.
  • “I remember where I was, what time of the day it was – even what I was wearing”
