Brianna Darcey Acupuncture: Postpartum Care: You Deserve More Than “Survival Mode"
We do such a good job preparing for birth—but what about the weeks and months after? In many cultures, new parents are surrounded by care, nourishment, and rest. In ours? Too often, they’re sent home exhausted, in pain, and expected to “bounce back” while figuring it all out alone.
It doesn’t have to be that way. I’m an Oakland-based acupuncturist and former Labor & Delivery nurse who specializes in postpartum care. My goal is to help new parents feel nourished, supported, and truly seen during this transformative time. Through acupuncture, bodywork, and herbal medicine, I help with:
- Milk supply & flow issues
- Recovery from birth (vaginal or C-section)
- Pain, stress, sleep, and emotional shifts
- Rebuilding energy & balance after pregnancy
I also offer home visits in the East Bay because getting out with a newborn is no small feat.
If you’re in the postpartum period please remember you don’t have to go it alone. Your body deserves care, too.
