More on Breech Presentation (Breech Baby)
Moxibustion has successfully been used to turn breech position babies into a normal head-down position prior to childbirth.
A landmark study published in the Journal of the American Medical Association in 1998 found that up to 75% of the women suffering from breech presentations before childbirth had fetuses that rotated to the normal position after receiving moxibustion at an acupuncture point on the chi Bladder meridian. Other studies have shown that moxibustion increases the movement of the fetus in pregnant women.
