Acupuncture for Fertility
“Prepare the body like fertile soil, ready for the seed to grow.”
From your very first visit at The Wellness Studio, you will feel warmly welcomed, deeply supported, and genuinely cared for. This is a space where you can arrive exactly as you are. Your journey is honored here in all of its moments, the hopeful, the difficult, and everything in between.
You never have to apologize for a hard day. We will sit with you, listen with care, and hold space for what you’re experiencing, meeting you with compassion and understanding. And when there are moments of joy, hope, and celebration, we will share in those with you as well. Here, you are supported every step of the way.
Acupuncture is a time-honored healing practice within Traditional Chinese Medicine that supports the body’s natural ability to restore balance and function. By stimulating specific points along the body’s energetic pathways, Acupuncture encourages circulation, regulates the nervous system, and promotes overall wellness from the inside out.
Both men and women can benefit from Acupuncture for fertility support. Treatments are personalized to address the root cause of symptoms rather than simply masking them, allowing the body to heal in a gentle yet powerful way. Many patients also find Acupuncture deeply relaxing, leaving sessions feeling calm, restored, and more connected to their health.
EXPERIENCE
the wellness studio
01) New Patient Consultation
During your Consultation, you’ll spend dedicated one-on-one time with one of our Doctors reviewing your health history, intake form, current concerns, and long-term wellness goals.
Your Doctor will take the time to thoughtfully assess your unique presentation and develop a personalized Acupuncture Care Plan tailored specifically to your body, needs, and goals. We’ll walk you through our findings and recommendations, answer any questions you may have, and ensure you feel informed, supported, and confident moving forward with your care.
Following your Consultation, you can stay for your first Acupuncture treatment, allowing you to begin your care that same day.
30 Minutes -- $40
02) Acupuncture Education & Care Plan
During your second treatment, your Doctor will spend time educating you on your individualized recommendations based on your diagnosis, presentation, and health goals. This may include food therapy, Chinese Herbal Medicine, supplements, and lifestyle recommendations designed to support your body and complement your Acupuncture care.
This visit is designed to provide you with the tools and knowledge you need to actively participate in your healing and optimize your health goals. You’ll also receive your Acupuncture treatment during this visit, allowing us to continue building on the foundation established during your Consultation.
To best support your health and wellness, consistency is key. Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are rooted in the understanding that meaningful, lasting change takes time and that the body heals from the inside out. Establishing a consistent relationship with your Acupuncturist allows us to continually assess your progress, adapt your care as your needs change, and support you throughout each stage of your health journey.

03) Re-Evaluation & Maintenance
After completing the Care Plan outlined during your Consultation, you’ll complete a re-evaluation questionnaire to assess your progress, how your body has responded to treatment, and how you’re feeling overall. From there, your Doctor will guide you through the next phase of your care based on your individual needs and health goals.
For some patients, this may mean continuing with regular Acupuncture treatments to further support healing and progress. For others, it may be an opportunity to transition into a maintenance phase, with treatments spaced further apart to help sustain the progress you’ve made and support long-term wellness.
Your care is never one-size-fits-all. We’ll continue to thoughtfully adjust your treatment plan as your needs evolve, so you always know what’s next and feel supported throughout your health journey.
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.

Acupuncture Fertility 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.”
"I came to the wellness studio after a year and a half of infertility. I chose to do acupuncture to support trying for a baby, on top of many months of medications I was taking. The very first month of acupuncture I finally got pregnant! My husband and I finally had a baby girl this July!"
