experience a safe and sensitive approach to infertility treatment

According to the CDC, approximately 10% of women of reproductive age have difficulty getting or staying pregnant. Environmental toxins, stressful lifestyles, poor diet, lack of exercise and smoking may all be contributing factors to this number. If you are currently struggling with infertility, you are not alone, and there natural approaches to treatment. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can be successfully used to treat the many complexities of fertility, helping you through the challenges of infertility and addressing the root issue, increasing your chances of a successful pregnancy. 

When considering a more holistic approach to infertility, consider the following:

• Acupuncture takes into account the whole being, addressing the root cause of infertility, enhancing overall health as well as reproductive functioning.
• It can help resolve reproductive issues such as: PCOS, endometriosis, poor egg quality, habitual miscarriage, and positively affect the quality and quantity of sperm.
•  Acupuncture can greatly increase success rates when used as an adjunct therapy with IVF/IUI.

A course of treatment can range between 3-12 months and varies greatly from person to person. Treatment plans include:

• Optimal timing of acupuncture treatments throughout your cycle
• Diet, exercise and lifestyle considerations/recommendations
• Herbal medicine/supplements if necessary 
• Other techniques to support a healthy well-being and limit stress
