Acupuncture for fertility

I am a ‘Fertility Support Trained’ Acupuncturist, which means I have completed the Advanced Fertility Diploma, trained by Naava Carman.

This training is a worldwide recognised Gold standard of Fertility Acupuncture, and is focused on fertility through a Reproductive Immunology lens. This allows me to take a deep dive into any of your diagnostic results, and suggest any gaps in investigations Biomedical approaches, and to be your bridge between the medical field and a holistic one.

When you come in for a first consultation, you will receive a detailed report afterwards with a clear outline of next steps. I can take all your signs and symptoms and translate your clinical picture into a highly bespoke acupuncture treatment.

I can refer you to my network of specialists if needed. I can support you with preparing for natural conception, IVF support, IUI, and Frozen Embryo transfer.

One of the immeasurable qualities that an Acupuncturist will be able to provide is emotional support, during an emotionally heightened time. All fertility treatments I offer will include Acupuncture points which support and promote calm.

This is crucial during fertility treatment, as the stress hormone cortisol, interferes with conception by unsettling the hormonal cycle. Acupuncture regulates neurotransmitters, feel good hormones, promotes relaxation thereby switching off the overactive analytical brain which leads to worry and anxiety, and may reverse stress induced changes in biochemistry,

Emotional support also is offered by way of creating a space for you to talk through your experiences, fears, hopes and dreams. I can also suggest evidence based -lifestyle changes which will have a positive impact on fertility, advise on supplementation, and empower you to help you navigate ART treatment choices.

There are many mechanisms that aid fertility in Acupuncture treatments, please see my FAQ section to find out how.
