Grounded Strength with Third Trimester Acupuncture
The third trimester is a season of anticipation — weeks when the body prepares for birth while carrying the fullness of new life. At The Violette House, we offer a specialized acupuncture program designed for this powerful chapter. Our treatments ease tension, promote restful sleep, and create space for calm and clarity as you move closer to meeting your baby.

Acupuncture encourages circulation, hormone balance, and cervical ripening, supporting your body’s natural readiness for birth.
Promotes Emotional Ease
