Acupuncture for Female  Fertility

Mobile-Acupuncture is ideal for busy stressed out patients who find if difficult to attend a clinic. Having a practitioner arrive at your home at a time convenient to you without having to take time out from work, or find a parking place gives you more time to concentrate on the important things in you life – you.

There has been a growing body of evidence for many years now suggesting  that the ancient Chinese practice of acupuncture really can improve the chances of  conception.  Acupuncture is often recommended by doctors these days alongside standard IVF fertility  treatment. Acupuncture can also assist in cases of  what is commonly termed ‘unexplained infertility”   where there are no apparent functional problems.

From a Chinese Medicine perspective we take a wider view on the issues of infertility  and not just the physical and functional aspects of the body.

Frequently emotional issues such as anxiety, stress, and a tendency to worry are all  factors which can effect our general wellbeing. Acupuncture is said to  stimulate  the body’s own natural  healing rhythms. In  fertility treatment some research has indicated that it is said to increase blood flow to the reproductive organs via the nervous system.

Acupuncture for fertility is popular because it helps patients with all of the  phases of birth and their  variety of problems,   from unexplained conception issues, to maximise IVF chances, and later with  pregnancy and its effects.

It is sometimes beneficial to  arrange to meet both partners  when dealing with fertility, although the practitioner will need to see each patient separately during some part of the diagnosis, especially  when discussing  their  emotional health.

For conception issues it is not uncommon for us to recommend a visit twice a week  for the first 2-3 weeks then decreasing to weekly and then forthrightly.

There may be some   lifestyle issues  which may need to be addressed  and we recommend reading our Tips and Advice section for some basic guidance.

Patients should be wary of purchasing expensive dietary supplements advertised from some internet sources. We do no prescribe any Chinese Herbal remedies and the  practitioners will not attempt to sell you add on supplements or services to make extra income.  We prefer to recommend a natural balanced diet based on healthy every day foods and common sense. Foods that  enrich the blood for example are recommended.
We do however have a list of recommend books and DVD’s you  can purchase direct from  Amazon Uk on fertility as well as general wellbeing.
