Dear Patient, There’s a great point on the wrist for nausea, Pericardium 6. I’ll often needle this on my pregnant patients to relieve nausea and morning sickness. But sometimes a pregnant person doesn’t want me to needle it. They like feeling nauseous. Even though it’s uncomfortable, the nausea is reassuring. It’s a little dispatch from the body saying “Yes! You’re pregnant!” It can be especially heartening after a struggle with infertility.
