What is IVF
IVF is a fertility treatment that helps individuals and couples to become pregnant. While highly effective, the process can be physically and emotionally demanding for women, and acupuncture is often used as a complementary treatment to support the process.
What are the challenges:
- Fertility challenges may arise from hormonal imbalances, ovulation issues, low sperm quality, stress, or unexplained factors.
- IVF itself can cause the mother to experience additional stress and physical side effects from medications and procedures.

How we can help
Acupuncture
Your acupuncturist will use very fine needles placed in carefully selected points on your body. Many people feel a mild tingling or warmth during treatment, followed by a sense of calm and relaxation. They will target specific points to support IVF by improving blood flow to the uterus, balancing hormones, and reducing stress. It can also help to manage side effects from fertility medications and promote relaxation during each stage of the IVF cycle.
How you will feel after treatment
You are likely to feel calmer and more balanced throughout the IVF process. Acupuncture can help to reduce anxiety, ease physical symptoms, and provide a sense of calm and wellbeing which could increase the chances of a successful IVF process.
