The effectiveness of using acupuncture to treat heartburn (dyspepsia) during pregnancy is shown in a research study published by the British Medical Journal. The results state in conclusion: "Dyspepsia in pregnancy is a very common problem. The use of medication is always a concern. Acupuncture, as was demonstrated in this study, seems to be an effective means of reducing the symptoms and improving the quality of life for gravidas. This technique should be further studied in prospective randomised studies of large populations to confirm our findings in effectiveness and the absence of adverse effects. It is simple to apply and if used in an appropriate manner can reduce the need for medication." You can download a pdf (240 kb) of the report here.
