Acupuncture for Fertility

“Trying” to get pregnant can be an emotional time for couples, and may become stressful if initially unsuccessful. Acupuncture is a gentle and non-invasive treatment which can increase blood flow to the uterus, regulate menstruation, reduce anxiety and optimise success at each menstrual cycle. Women are advised to start treatment before they conceive to enhance their health, particularly if they are 35 years or older.

IVF – research in Germany has shown that acupuncture can increase the success rate of IVF patients by up to 60%. Treatment is best started prior to the IVF commencing, and should continue throughout.
