Fertility Acupuncture

Acupuncture is an ancient system of healing which is widely used in the East and more recently in Western societies to help promote good health on the levels of body, mind and spirit. The principles of acupuncture are based on the belief that general health issues and specific conditions arise as a result of the different body systems being out of balance or in a state of disharmony. Acupuncture seeks to restore the balance between the different body systems by looking for the root cause of the imbalance and inserting very fine needles into specific acupoints. This will enable the smooth flow of qi or vital energy to the different organs in order to re-establish balance and improve health and well-being.

There is a wealth of documented evidence to suggest that acupuncture may be able to help improve the chances of natural or assisted conception by;

• Helping to relieve the symptoms of conditions associated with the menstrual cycle, for example, painful periods, irregular periods or no periods, etc
• Nourishing and supporting the blood supply to the uterus and other organs
• Helping to relieve prostate, urinary and bladder symptoms
• Improving the quality of sperm
• Improving general health and well-being on the levels of body, mind and spirit

Acupuncture is one of the many complementary therapies available that aims to enhance a person’s health and well-being. During the consultation the practitioner may suggest lifestyle changes to help support the treatments that will aid the chances of improving natural or assisted conception. Acupuncture is a holistic therapy which aims to integrate all aspects of the person.
