Acupuncture for Fertility

Acupuncture and herbs are becoming well known for Fertility.

After the consultation, your Acupuncturist will discuss a treatment plan. Optimally, weekly is recommended for many fertility clients. But we will find one that works for you.

Acupuncture can also be used before and during IVF (in vitro fertilization). We typically recommend two-three months of regular treatments before an IVF cycle.

 

In regards to reproductive health, research has shown that Acupuncture can help the following:

  • Reduce stress

  • Balance hormones

  • Increase blood flow to the uterus

  • Regulate menstrual cycle

  • Decrease menstrual cramps

  • Improve endometrium (uterine lining)

  • Prevent recurrent miscarriage

 

 
 

Client Experiences

“After my first birth did not go as planned I vowed to do anything and everything I could to have a better labour and delivery with our second. One thing I did was acupuncture with Dayna and I was so glad I did!  Dayna was very knowledgeable and so calming to talk to. She made sure I was as comfortable as I could be (while 30 plus weeks pregnant) during my sessions. I saw her right up to the week of my delivery!  Dayna was someone I confided in and she made me feel reassured with my decisions about how I wanted my labour to go. My labour and delivery went so much better then the first and I was able to do a vbac like I wanted. I will definitely be seeing Dayna again during pregnancy if we are blessed with another!”
