Fertility Acupuncture Specialists - Painless And Cost Effective
By Jason Katzenback
There are many benefits to searching out a Fertility Acupuncture Specialists, as this form of therapy has been proven to help increase fertility in certain situations. It is a simple, natural, and affordable treatment option for infertility. It appears to work the best with problems involving endometriosis and has been used since ancient times and has been proven safe and effective.
There are many studies that have had very positive results as to whether or not acupuncture helps with fertility problems. Doctors at the Cleveland Clinic have been investigating treatments and have had good results but there still is much more research needed to determine when and how the acupuncture therapy works the best.
Fertility Acupuncture Specialists perform their procedure by placing slender needles on certain points of the body and these points allow the flow of life energy, or chi, to flow properly. This method has been developed and perfected by the ancient Chinese and they have found the best results from acupuncture have been when it is used to treat the pain of endometriosis, and not used in the traditional body spots that have been used to help infertility. This brings hope to many women who have found that pain from endometriosis infringes on becoming pregnant. Endometriosis is a very common problem and results in thousands of partial and total hysterectomies each year. But whether a woman suffers from endometriosis or another form of infertility problem, finding a Fertility Acupuncture Specialists can help.
Acupuncture is performed by well-trained, licensed professionals in alternative medicine clinics or holistic centers. You can find these clinics all across America or in other countries as well. You can find one that is located in your area by searching online or looking in your telephone book's yellow pages under "Alternative Medicine", or a similar listing. When compared to other infertility treatments, acupuncture proves very cost effective.
Acupuncture has been accepted for centuries as a therapy for infertility and is safe and affordable. If you are experiencing difficulty becoming pregnant acupuncture therapy is worth a try. There is no need to fear the idea of having fine needles placed on your body. Acupuncture is painless and quite relaxing and if the fertility problem is related to endometriosis then consulting your nearest Fertility Acupuncture Specialists may be the most painless, cost effective, and trouble-free treatment available.
where do needles for acupuncture go for fertility treatments?
I’m interested in trying acupuncture for fertility and I would like to know where they place the needles. I’m not asking for specifics, just general location like in the back of the neck or stomach or legs.
It’s going to depend on what the TCM (traditional Chinese Medicine) diagnosis is… but generally, you should expect to have some needles in your lower legs (near the knees, near the ankles or on your feet) and a few either in your abdomen or your back. And it’s also possible there will be one/some near the wrist.
If you’re nervous about the needles, let your doc know. There are things she can do to “distract” the nerves so you hardly feel a thing.
Good luck!
Im really conciderin acupuncture for fertility ther r successes,but does it work if u hav cromosome problems?
I have researched it and have gone to a clinic.
I would think acupuncture for fertility is good because it takes your stress away which is one of the biggest problem when trying to conceive, i doubt it can do anything about chromosome problems.. they just occur once in a while and you can have a healthy pregnancy !
Has anyone tried acupuncture for fertility?
I have been trying to conceive for a year now and have been considering trying acupuncture. Has anyone tried this before? Is it a total waste of time?
No I do not mean fertility shots. I know that fertility drugs work.
I mean acupuncture. As in having needles put all over your body. There are special acupuncturist who specialize in fertility acupuncutre which is suppose to stimulate hormones and ovulation?
I did a workshop to support women trying to conceive and we looked into meditation, yoga, talk therapy, counseling, nutrition and acupuncture.
Acupuncture is thought to be very successful when used in conjunction with fertility treatments and some women who have had ovulation issues start to ovulate as a result of acupuncture. I have a friend who swears it helped her with ovulation and a luteal phase defect.
From personal experience, it was more of a stress reliever than anything else. . . . if you can afford it, it cannot hurt and might help – just find someone experienced and who specializes in fertility.
Acupuncture & Fertility? Does this really help?
Hi Ladies~
A friend of mine who was TTC for a few months, turned to acupuncture for a month & she finally got pregnant.
A co-worker tried IVF, which didnt take, turned to acupuncture, & you guessed it, got pregnant!
I was just wondering if anyone else has heard of acupuncture helping with fertility?
Sending all TTC TONS OF BABY DUST!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Thank YOU mom of 4!!! You def. give me hope & I will get the book:))
Hope it helps! xx
kbc, you are right…it is expensive. I think the first session is $90 than every other after is $65 each visit.
Crazy huh? I hope it works out for your sister-in-law too. Keep me posted:)
I went to acupuncture weekly for over a year and didn’t have any luck. I stopped going regularly then finally had success with my second IVF. I do think it made my menstruation more healthy. The color had improved drastically. I really think that was due more to the herbs than the actual acupuncture. I didn’t have any changes for the first 8 months, then started strong herbs and saw the change.
The acupuncture definitely helped with my migraines and anytime I went in with locked muscles they were relieved immediately. So I guess in a round about way it helped b/c it seemed to make my uterine lining more healthy – even though that was the reason why I wasn’t getting pregnant.
Has anyone tried acupuncture for fertility without doing iui or ivf?
my friend tried to conceive for 4 years nothing worked, so she tried acupuncture….bang..she got pregnant! dunno, must be something, or maybe they were trying to hard, but yes she did do acupuncture, and she got pregnant, within a month or 2 after…
good luck
