Overview

Literature review shows acupressure and aromatherapy reduce nausea in first trimester, suggesting benefits for maternal health.

Key Points

  • Acupressure at Pericardium 6 effectively reduces nausea and vomiting in early pregnancy, improving maternal health.
  • Aromatherapy using lemon, lavender, and peppermint oils consistently decreases the frequency and intensity of nausea.
  • Moxibustion at Pericardium 6 shows potential for managing nausea, while moxibustion at Zusanli is less effective.
  • These complementary therapies may contribute to nutritional improvement and stunting prevention starting from the womb.
