Acupuncture and Reproductive Health
Whether you are just starting off on your fertility journey or have been going through menopause symptoms for years, we specialize in any ailments that have to do with hormones and the reproductive system.
Our specialists not only have a deep knowledge of Eastern Medicine but of Western medicine as well which can help to guide you through anything from IVF to hormonal panels.
Our treatments are powerful blends of acupuncture, diet and supplement recommendations, and Chinese herbal medicine which can be a perfect natural route to healing or a wonderful addition to Western medicine.
Fertility
It seems that the incidence of infertility is getting more and more prevalent in our society. Infertility is diagnosed when a couple is trying to conceive for 1 year without success.
Whether you have been through multiple IVF cycles or you are just starting out on your journey, Chinese Medicine can help you to improve your reproductive health which makes it easier for conception to take place.
Treatment length is generally 3-12 months using a combination of acupuncture, herbs, diet and lifestyle changes. We work with patients in conjunction with their gynecologists or reproductive endocrinologists as needed.
There are many different reasons that you may be having trouble conceiving. Most commonly, the following are implicated:
Pregnancy
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs have been used for over 2000 years during pregnancy to help ease many of the uncomfortable symptoms that women often experience. It is safe, effective and time-tested. It has been shown to treat:
Threatened/habitual miscarriage
Morning sickness/nausea/heartburn/constipation/diarrhea/hemorrhoids
Insomnia and fatigue
Dizziness
Pain—Back ache/sciatica /pelvic girdle pain/leg cramps
Depression/anxiety (A Stanford study showed that acupuncture holds promise for the treatment of depression during pregnancy).
Anemia
Hypertension/ Preeclampsia
Colds/Flu
Breech presentation
Labor
Acupuncture can help to reduce anxiety during these first few weeks of pregnancy. Many women that have gone through infertility and are now pregnant or those that have had prior miscarriages are very nervous and tentative in the beginning.
Clinical trials have shown that regular monitoring and reassurance can reduce miscarriage rates.
