Fertility | Acupuncture & Chinese Herbal Medicine​​
I offer specialist fertility support using acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine, with a focus on evidence-based care and truly individualised treatment. With over 10 years’ experience as an acupuncturist and 7 years specialising in fertility and reproductive health, I have supported many individuals, couples, and solo parents on their journey towards building a family.
​
My approach combines the principles of Traditional Chinese Medicine with modern fertility science. Treatments are tailored to you — your health history, menstrual cycle, lifestyle, and reproductive goals — whether you are trying to conceive naturally or undergoing assisted fertility treatment such as IVF.
​
I use acupuncture and, where appropriate, Chinese herbal medicine alongside current clinical research and fertility-focused treatment protocols. These treatments are commonly used to support:
​
-
menstrual cycle regulation and ovulation
-
hormonal balance
-
uterine and ovarian blood flow
-
stress reduction and nervous system regulation
-
preparation for and recovery from fertility treatments
During your comprehensive initial consultation, we will explore your medical history, menstrual health, lifestyle, nutrition, stress levels, and environmental factors. Where relevant, I can suggest appropriate medical investigations and work alongside your GP or fertility clinic to ensure your care is well-informed and coordinated.
​
Many people notice changes within the first few cycles of treatment. While outcomes vary, acupuncture is often used over a period of three to six months to support fertility, particularly when preparing for conception or assisted reproductive treatments.​
