Optimal Fertility Starts Here!

My goal is to help you achieve the highest possible level of health and wellness , so you can achieve optimal fertility. Having evolved over thousands of years, acupuncture is one of the oldest continually practiced medical modalities in the world. Acupuncture is used to prevent and treat disease, relieve pain, balance mood, enhance athletic performance, increase fertility, and improve overall health and wellness and most importantly, achieve a greater level of fertility for both male and female patients, making family growing achievable! Acupuncture has been used in Asia for over 1500 years to help people improve their fertility and grow their families.

Acupuncture is a safe, effective, comfortable way to
promote your body's own healing abilities, to achieve a better hormonal balance, and to make pregnancy possible.

Research has shown that acupuncture is a safe, effective, natural way to promote the body's remarkable self-healing abilities. An acupuncture treatment involves the insertion and manipulation of flexible, hair-thin, sterile needles at specific points on the body. Most patients find the sensations produced by acupuncture treatment to be profoundly relaxing both mentally and physically. We may also incorporate other modalities of Asian medicine, including herbs, moxibustion, cupping, and medical Qi Gong, depending on the individual needs and desires of each patient. Acupuncture has been shown to improve fertility in both men and women, whether they are trying to conceive naturally or with assisted reproductive therapy.

Latest news on Frozen Embryo Transfer Acupuncture: It just keeps getting better!

For several years, I have used the Paulus Acupuncture Protocol on the day of embryo transfer. Paulus showed approximately a 24% improvement in embryo transfer success rates when it was initially published. Recently I discovered in the newer literature an improved version of the Paulus Protocol, which showed a 55% improvement in live birth rate over non-acupuncture frozen embryo transfers. According to Fertility and Sterility, (the journal of the American Society for Reproductive Medicine) , "CONCLUSIONS: Individualized acupuncture on the day of embryo transfer was associated with 55% increase in FET live births and 42% reduction in biochemical pregnancies compared with FET alone."
