We Have Something For Every Step of Your Journey!
Whether you are just beginning your fertility path or have been walking it for years, we will provide you with the time and education needed to plan your next step. We have many patients that come to us right before an IVF cycle or IUI procedure and we can still do a lot at this phase in treatment. Ideally, we work to fully balance your body mind and spirit to prepare you and support you through this journey. Since it takes three months for follicular development and
spermatogenesis, it is ideal to have you, and ideally your partner, fully exposed to the healing benefits of acupuncture, herbs, supplements and Maya
Abdominal Massage so your body mind and spirit are properly nourished.

Or if you are about to begin Assisted Reproductive Technologies, we can help balance your system and enhance your fertility.
Acupuncture has the highest success rates treating hormonal imbalances, disorders of ovulation (including Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome, PCOS), endometriosis, unexplained infertility, and low sperm counts. Acupuncture in conjunction with Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) can often yield the most optimal results for patients with more complicated situations. While many patients choose to receive acupuncture the day of an IVF procedure, it is optimal to come in for treatments at least three months before so we can have your body and your follicles at optimal health.
Acupuncture will not only decrease the stress response and stimulate blood flow to the uterus and thicken uterine lining, but also help to regulate your hormones to produce larger number of follicles and better quality of eggs for a healthier baby and decreased chances of miscarriage. Acupuncture will also help with the side effects of IVF drugs and strengthen your immune system.
Acupuncture and herbs will also support men for decreased sperm count, motility and morphology, low libido, stress and overall balance.
