Bhathen Posted July 27, 2021 As practitioners, are there any instances or scenarios where acupuncture needs to be avoided? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Awen Posted July 28, 2021 (edited) Not if someone knows what they are doing. There can be contra-indications for some points, eg Spleen 10 brings on labour in pregnant women- so if you're trying to treat deep, toxic heat in a woman who is (or potentially could be) pregnant, do not go anywhere near SP10. Trained practitioners will know this and therefore it poses no problem. Edited July 28, 2021 by Awen 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
