Fertility Acupuncture

The perfect blend of Ancient Chinese Medicine and Modern Fertility strategies for an easier path to parenthood.

Fertility Acupuncture | Supporting your path to parenthood

The path to fertility shouldn’t be a struggle, and yet, all too often, you are left struggling to understand why it is not happening as you had hoped.  This is where fertility acupuncture can assist. Whether you are trying to conceive your first baby, struggling to fall pregnant again, or you’re suffering from recurrent miscarriage, it’s easy to be left feeling confused, emotionally exhausted and wondering if you will ever have the baby that you are hoping for.

Unfortunately, one in six Australian couples struggles with infertility. Among women over the age of 35, one in three experience difficulties conceiving. Fertility problems are escalating and it’s not just women in their late 30s that are affected. Infertility is a sign that something is not right with you or your partners health. A healthy body is a fertile body and fertilty acupuncture is a pivotal support in this journey.

Our bodies are cleverly designed to reproduce, and when that doesn’t happen there is always an explanation. The health of your reproductive system is enormously influenced by your immune system, your digestive system, your liver, your thyroid, and your emotional state, just to name a few. Pregnancy is an enormous stress on a woman’s body and your body needs to be in optimal health, or very close to it, in order to achieve a healthy pregnancy and a healthy baby.

That’s where I can help. I’m here to support you with a combination of Traditional Chinese Medicine, fertility acupuncture, and natural therapies that help balance your body to be the perfect environment for both conceiving and carrying to term.

Additionally, I have significant knowledge of Western Medicine Fertility protocols (fertility testing, IVF, donor egg cycles) and am able to guide and inform you as to what you need to be asking your GP or fertility specialist to make sure nothing is missed that may impede your chances of falling pregnant and carrying to term. Think of me as your personal fertility coach!

I work with many couples who are going through IVF and want support with fertility acupuncture, as well as working with patients who are trying to fall pregnant naturally. Integrating fertility acupuncture into your treatment strategy can significantly enhance your fertility journey, providing a holistic and comprehensive approach to achieving your dream of parenthood. And I have over 15 years of experience working with patients who have hormone and fertility related issues including PCOS, endometriosis, recurrent thrush, Natural Killer Cells, low AMH, PMS and irregular cycles.

my Fertility Acupuncture Expertise

Over 15 years experience in Traditional Chinese Medicine, Western Medicine Fertility Protocols, fertility, IVF, and pregnancy acupuncture.

Pre Conception Care

With the excitement of deciding to try for a baby, it’s time to give your body the support it needs to have a smooth ride through falling pregnant, pregnancy and beyond. I love working with patients to prepare their body for pregnancy by identifying and correcting any health issues that may affect fertility potential.

Preventing Miscarriage

From a Traditional Chinese Medicine perspective acupuncture and supplements can prepare and strengthen the body prior to conceiving and treatment during the early stages of pregnancy can support those initial important weeks of a baby’s development.

PCOS

Getting women with PCOS prepared for pregnancy is critical and my treatment can help with regulating your cycle, balancing your hormones and help make it easier to get pregnant. Diet, lifestyle and supplements are also key to addressing the drivers of PCOS.

Natural Killer Cells

The side effects of Western medicine treatments for NKC can be harsh and can often be reduced by complementary treatment protocols that work to support both the mother and baby during early stages of pregnancy.

Endometriosis

Endometriosis can have a significant on women’s lives and can affect their fertility potential. I have seen that acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine combined with diet changes and lifestyle shifts can help reduce the pain and inflammation of endometriosis and improve fertility outcomes.

Low Ovarian Reserve

Chinese Medicine focuses on supporting the quality of a woman’s eggs and treatment focuses on strengthening and balancing the body through stress reduction, good diet, nutritional supplementation, and acupuncture.

Unexplained Infertility

In Traditional Chinese Medicine ‘unexplained’ infertility is viewed as a sign of imbalance in the health of one or both partners and fertility acupuncture treatment is directed at identifying and correcting these imbalances.

Male Infertility

As male factor infertility now accounts for up to 50% of infertility more men are using acupuncture and traditional Chinese Medicine to address their health and fertility concerns about high levels of DNA fragmentation, varicocele, low sperm count, and poor motility.

Donor Egg Cycle

I provide a preconception care program, professional guidance, and compassionate support for donor egg cycles. I have many years of experience supporting women who are doing donor egg cycles and can help guide you through what can sometimes be a complex process.

Hormonal Imbalances

The quality of a woman’s hormones, particularly progesterone, is key to falling pregnant, preventing miscarriage, and improve fertility outcomes. My fertility acupuncture treatments aim to correct the cause, rather than treat the symptom. If you have been told you have a short luteal phase or weak progesterone then it is worth exploring natural ways to help improve these levels.
