Acupuncture training for Midwives in Chiapas, Mexico: Update

Date: January 30th, 2020

As most of you already know, three of the OBAA board members went to Mexico to teach maternal acupuncture, by request, to midwives working with Indigenous and marginalized communities. It was a profound and deeply touching experience and hopefully only the beginning of much more work by OBAA members, to help communities in need.

Check out our events page for a recap from our trip written by Shannon Larson.
