Fertility Acupuncture
Fertility acupuncture is a specialized form of Acupuncture that supports reproductive health by stimulating specific points on the body with ultra-fine, sterile needles.
Fertility Acupuncture
Fertility Acupuncture works by improving blood circulation to the reproductive organs, helping regulate the nervous and endocrine systems, reducing stress, and supporting the body’s natural ability to conceive.
Fertility Acupuncture is supported by numerous studies and has been shown to effectively address fertility issues in both men and women. The American Society of Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) recommends acupuncture for conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, poor ovarian reserve, unexplained infertility, male factor infertility, and for those preparing for assisted reproductive technologies (ART) like IUI and IVF.
For optimal benefits, it is best to start Acupuncture treatments 2-3 months before undergoing ART cycles.
Fertility Acupuncture Can:
- Harmonize your reproductive hormones
- Enhance egg quality
