Pre-Conception + Fertility
Fertility acupuncture is for those who are thinking of optimizing their fertility for the future or for those actively seeking assistance with becoming and staying pregnant. Acupuncture is safe and can be used as an adjunct to the medical treatment you are already receiving. It is also for those who have taken a break from medical treatments and want to explore holistic care.
Acupuncture can be used at different stages in your fertility journey. It is very beneficial early on when trying to conceive naturally, as it helps to balance hormones, regulate cycles, manage painful periods and PMS, helps with stress and so much more. For those going through fertility treatments, acupuncture has been found to aid in implantation and increase the success rates of IUI and IVF treatments. Ask us about our pre and post acupuncture treatments for improving implantation. Acupuncture is very helpful with improving blood flow and circulation to the reproductive organs, reducing inflammation and calming the mind.
