Acupuncture can be used by couples who are trying to conceive.


It can also help support you through Western Medical intervention procedures such as IUI or IVF, or it can be used before these approaches are tried.

There is a lot of research available that shows that acupuncture can significantly improve conception rates and improve blood flow to the endometrium.

Acupuncture for Female Factor, Male Factor or Unexplained
You can be treated you together as a couple or separately, or acupuncture can support women in same sex couples and single parents. Female factor can take up to 3-6 months and longer. Male factor is usually 3-4 months. Whatever is happening for you our acupuncturists are here to support you on your journey to conceive.

Addressing Lifestyle Issues Can Improve Fertility
Chinese Medicine also gives advice on diet and lifestyle factors that may assist conception and can support you to make lifestyle changes that will help maximize your fertility. Acupuncture is also extremely effective at treating stress and the underlying emotional issues that go with trying to conceive.

Our acupuncturists are happy to have an in-depth pre-screening chat with you on the phone to determine if acupuncture is right for you and if you would like to proceed with treatment. You can also email if this is easier. All calls and personal information are handled with professionalism and sensitivity.

Acupuncture for Embryo Transfer

Lots of people who are having IVF have acupuncture before and after embryo transfer. The Paulis protocol for IVF transfer has been shown to significantly improve the chances of conception.

What Should We Expect? 
At your initial appointment your acupuncturist will take you and your partner´s full reproductive history and try to identify ways to assist conception naturally. In any given cycle a couple has a 25% chance of conceiving and on average it takes 8 months to fall pregnant, though for some people this does not happen and your acupuncturist will work with you to see what factors may be preventing conception.

She has always had an interest in health and well-being and after many years working in an industry which no longer fuelled her passion, she decided a change was needed.

Shortly after she decided to enrol at the esteemed City College of Acupuncture where she studied full time for 3 years gaining her Licentiate in Acupuncture. Here she learned much about anatomy, traditional Chinese medicine, conventional medicine and bringing the body back to a place of balance through acupuncture, diet and lifestyle.

Annette is passionate about seeing the person as one moving piece, incorporating the body, mind and spirit and believes that when these things are in balance, we’re giving ourselves the very best opportunity at living a good, healthy and pain free life. Areas of interest include mental health support, stress management, musculoskeletal problems, pain management, migraine, digestive issues and supporting peri/menopausal symptoms.
