I have a friend who is in the later stages of pregnancy, and after much coaxing, and massaging today from the midwife, her baby is still in the breach position.

Her husband has found out that moxibustion, a chinese treatment similar to acupuncture, but with the buring of mugwort instead of needles, can help the baby get into the correct position.

Has anyone heard of a practitioner that does moxibustian in this area?

I'm going to call in to the Chinese medical centre, opposite Boots in Accrington tomorrow, to ask if they do it.

Any information will be gratefully passed on.

Thank you.
