What is Fertility Acupuncture?
Facing infertility is an emotional and stressful experience. Our professional and empathic healthcare professionals know how hard this process is and are here to help. Fertility acupuncture is an alternative technique that takes a holistic approach to fertility.
Our fertility acupuncture services are a painless, natural process that helps to stimulate blood flow to the uterus, regulate hormones, decrease stress, improve IVF outcomes and promote mental and physical relaxation and wellbeing.
We can help you at any stage of your fertility journey, whether you’re preparing for a pregnancy, if you have just started IVF or have been trying to conceive for a long period of time.
Women can experience infertility due to a variety of factors including PCOS, endometriosis, stress, anxiety and hormonal imbalances. In men, stress, low sperm counts and reduced sperm mobility can all contribute to low fertility and infertility. Our acupuncturists are dedicated to addressing these fertility issues through the practice of infertility acupuncture.
Acupuncture for Preconception
Holistic acupuncture can also be used when you are trying to conceive. This approach can be helpful to couples trying to conceive naturally or who are preparing for IVF treatment. Preconception acupuncture works by addressing several key factors. It can help to regulate your menstrual cycle, promote regular ovulation and support the production of healthy eggs by balancing happy hormones. It can also help to stimulate the blood flow around your uterus, helping with overall uterine health.
As many couples find infertility stressful, preconception acupuncture allows you the space to calm your nervous system and reduce anxiety. By building a calm, regulated and strong foundation before conception, our natural acupuncture aims to increase your chances of a happy and healthy pregnancy from the get-go.
Acupuncture for IVF Treatment
Our professional and experienced practitioners can complement your IVF (or any other treatment like surgery, IUI, etc) with your acupuncture. Our team are fully qualified, licensed, and has the knowledge and skills to improve your chances of becoming pregnant by utilising fertility acupuncture in conjunction with your IVF.
Our healthcare professionals recommend starting your acupuncture treatment 3-4 months before you undergo your IVF treatment. Combine acupuncture treatment with traditional Chinese medicine to get maximum benefits from the process.
What To Expect During Your First Fertility Acupuncture Treatment
During your first consultation, our naturopaths begin by discussing your menstrual cycle to identify any imbalances and improve your chances of having a healthy pregnancy. Our compassionate and gentle acupuncturists will also ask you about your general well-being, such as sleep habits, energy levels, mental and physical health, and your work-life balance.
Our fertility acupuncture sessions last approximately 30 - 60 minutes and aren’t painful. However, you may feel achy after your session but you should walk away feeling relaxed and calm.
