Acupuncture and Reproductive Health

Acupuncture is recognized as one of the oldest healing practices in the world, with written records dating back 5000 years. Acupuncture addresses an individual holistically; tapping into one’s innate healing. It is recognized as an effective treatment for more than 35 common illnesses by The World Health Organization. Hair-thin needles, herbal combinations, lifestyle adjustments, and nutritional assessment all factor into this approach to improve one’s overall health. At White Peony Acupuncture, we help men and women with ailments including headaches, acute and chronic pain, immunity and frequent colds/flus, cognitive disorders, skin conditions, digestion, reproductive problems, issues that arise in pregnancy, muscle tension, sleep disorders, neurological conditions, adjunctive care for people with cancer, and respiratory problems.
 
Acupuncture also plays a very important role in the treatment of women’s health and fertility, and helps to positively impact male reproductive health. It is the most common and popular form of holistic treatment recommended by reproductive endocrinologists and OB-GYN doctors for patients with an inability to conceive or carry a healthy child.We see clients get the best results when our therapies are combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle for at least four months prior to conception.
  
Acupuncture enhances fertility in these ways:
  • Regulating hormone levels in the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian pathway
  • Nourishing the ovarian and uterine venous pathways by increasing the blood flow
  • Improving the thickness of the uterine lining
  • Reducing ovarian cysts
  • Increasing ovulation rates
  • Regulating the menstrual cycle
  • Regulating the immune system, such as antibodies, white blood cells, and T-cells
  • Regulating thyroid imbalance
  • Improving sperm count and motility
 
Acupuncture for managing Stress
 
How we respond to every day stressors can interfere with our hormone balance, sleep, digestion, and essentially every function in the body. Many women experience an emotional roller coaster with each menstrual cycle. Acupuncture releases beta-endorphins, which provides us with a sense of relaxation and pleasure.
 
Why should you Consider Acupuncture to Increase your Pregnancy Rate?
  • Acupuncture is safe, and has no negative side effects
  • You can begin at any time of your cycle
  • Your body willl recalibrate and heal
  • It helps relax your stressed mind and body, and harmonizes your system
