Are you thinking of Moxibustion? There are a lot of alternative therapies avaialble for turning a breech and I've seen some of them work (moxa, slantboard and music). Check out the midwife list archives at www.gentlebirth.org/archives/breech.html Another alternative for her is a vaginal breech birth, if she can find a practitioner who is skilled at this and willing to do it.
