The treatment of infertility with acupuncture and Chinese medicine dates back 2,000 years. These ancient, time-tested techniques improve fertility rates and support a woman’s whole body, unlocking unlimited potential for heals, healing and childbearing.

Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can raise the fertility potential for women by affecting the quality, quantity, balance and flow of Qi and Blood. When Qi (also called Life Energy) & Blood are circulating freely throughout the body, every cell, tissue and organ is properly nourished & functioning well. When this occurs, a woman’s health and fertility are increased.
According to the theories of acupuncture and Chinese medicine, infertility is caused by an imbalance of Qi and blood affecting one or more of the Organ systems. (Please keep in mind that the Organs described below reflect Eastern medical theories and philosophies)
Kidney Organ System - the release of an ovum is controlled by the Kidneys. The Kidneys also create a substance called Jing Qi, which is required in order to have a healthy body, mind and pregnancy. If an imbalance exists within the Kidneys, Jing Qi may be inadequate in supply & infertility may be a result. Chinese herbal medicine, along with acupuncture, can nourish & support Jing Qi & overall Kidney Health.
Spleen Organ System – an adequate supply of blood is required by a woman’s body to sustain a normal menstrual cycle, a growing fetus and a healthy pregnancy. A disharmony within the Spleen can result in an inadequate supply and imbalance of blood. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs can build and nourish blood, in order to promote a healthy flow of blood to the uterus.
Liver Organ System – in order to conceive & have a healthy pregnancy, it’s important to have a free flow of Qi and blood throughout the body. The Liver is in charge of facilitating the smooth flow of Qi and blood. When it’s out of balance, areas of the body will not receive the required supply of Qi and blood. This imbalance can lead to depression, anxiety, stress and increase infertility.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine provide a safe, effective, drug-free and natural approach to treating infertility and enjoying a healthy pregnancy.

- positively affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis, which plays a key role in fertility.
