Common questions, direct answers.

01

What does individualized acupuncture care mean?

Your point selection and treatment focus are based on your symptoms, health history, goals, and response to previous visits. The plan can change as your body, menstrual cycle, fertility timeline, pain pattern, sleep, or digestion changes.

02

How can acupuncture fit into fertility and IVF care?

Visits can be thoughtfully timed around fertility planning, IUI, ovarian stimulation, egg retrieval, recovery, and embryo transfer. Treatment focus changes with the stage of care and how you are feeling that day.
