Acupuncture for Fertility and IVF support in Kingsbridge, Chillington & Modbury
Supporting women with acupuncture whether you’re ready to have a baby, have been trying for a while, or would like to prepare your body for pregnancy in the future, my aim is always to help women engage with their natural cycles.
Understanding the symptoms you experiences at different stages of your cycle forms the basis of my diagnosis and treatment, which, as we work together, allows you to also become an expert of your own bodies.
Acupuncture can help with menstrual disorders (all of which can impact fertility) such as:
Polycystic ovary syndrome
Endometriosis
Amenorrhea (the absence of periods)
Fibroids
Can acupuncture help with Fertility?
Can acupuncture help with IVF?
Becoming a parent through IVF can feel like a very clinical process, but there are many things you can do to support yourself through this process alongside acupuncture treatments.
During your treatment, we’ll discuss lifestyle tweaks, dietary changes based on Chinese Medical principles, and much more.
Treatments during an IVF cycle:
During the stimulation phase, acupuncture helps pelvic blood flow and encourages the follicles to grow evenly on both sides.
If a woman has had difficulty with egg collection, I may advise coming for treatment the day before to help with relaxation.
Acupuncture between egg collection and transfer is an ideal time to help with blood flow, relieve bloating and encourage receptivity.
I also treat after transfer to help calm the mind during the two-week wait.
How much does Acupuncture treatment for Fertility and IVF cost?
Your first treatment, which lasts 75 minutes, costs £65
Follow-up treatments last around 45 minutes and cost £50 each.
* From Jan 2025 there will be a small increase in my prices to reflect rises in rent and insurance - first treatments will be £70 and follow ups £55.
