At The Wellness Studio, we understand that fertility can be a deep and sensitive topic. That's why we find the root cause of your symptom(s) based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) Theory. Each patient receives a tailored Acupuncture treatment for their presenting symptoms - this is not a "one size fits all" ordeal.

Acupuncture Benefits for Fertility
Helps Regulate Hormones
Acupuncture can help regulate fertility hormones that are in need of guidance. Hormone function is crucial for having a regular menstrual cycle and optimal ovarian function.
Regulate the Central Nervous System
Taking your body out of "fight or flight mode" is one of Acupunctures specialities. Having added stress or anxiety during your fertility journey and/or pregnancy is an item to cross off your list.
Promotes Blood Flow
Not only does Acupuncture help produce blood flow, but Acupuncture also directs the blood flow to the reproductive organs. For women, this helps boost the lining on the uterus to increase chances of implantation.
Improves Male Fertility too!
It is said that between 30%-40% can revolve around male infertility. Acupuncture can be a great benefit to improving sperm quantity, quality and mobility.
Acupuncture Related Studies
"...women who did a combination of acupuncture and herbs with their IUI cycle had a pregnancy rate of 65.5% vs 39.4% who did the IUI alone, and live birth rates were 41.1% in the acupuncture group vs 26.9% in the IUI alone group.”
"Women receiving acupuncture demonstrated significant beneficial changes in serum cortisol and prolactin levels (stress hormones thought to impact on IVF pregnancy rates).”
Women receiving traditional acupuncture reported less nausea (p < 0.01) throughout the trial and less dry retching (p < 0.01) from the second week compared with women in the no acupuncture control group.”
