I have recommended moxa every day for 15minutes on the nail of the little toes - this actually started the process but has not fully turned the baby.  I have also given her pulsutilla 200c, suggested visualisation and talking to the baby. I am slight apprehensive in recommending any of the yoga exercises as I dont know that much about them. I would appreciate if anyone could recommend anything at all or any website that would have information for my lady.  Her OB is recommending she go in for a c-section at  38wk or to manually turn the baby however he has said this can create complications.   Thanking you   Madelaine Akras Naturopath
