Lower back pain is frequently experienced by pregnant women with more than two‐thirds of pregnant women experience low‐back pain and almost one‐fifth experience pelvic pain. The two conditions can occur separately or together and typically increase with advancing pregnancy, interfering with work, daily activities and sleep [1].
Pregnancy and childbirth weaken the back in two ways; in a purely physical way, they put a strain on the back muscles; in an energetic sense, they may weaken Kidney-Qi, which consequently fails to strengthen the back muscles.
However, pregnancy and childbirth are not by themselves a cause of disease. They only become that in women of weak constitution, in those who do not take care or rest after childbirth, or in those who have several children in close succession. In fact, if a woman takes particular care after childbirth, having adequate rest and a good, nourishing diet, a weak constitution may even be strengthened [2].
Studies showed acupuncture performed on women with low back pain had positive health effects. Furthermore, according to the pain assessments following treatment, there was a statistically significant reduction in low back pain among the pregnant women from as early as the second acupuncture session, with a gradual improvement with the advancement of the number of sessions. There were no serious adverse events related to acupuncture [3].
