How Acupuncture Helps with Fertility

Acupuncture has been used for over 3,000 years for many ailments, including the treatment of infertility.

It works by improving egg quality, sperm quality, and the uterine lining, as well as supporting hormone balance to increase the success rate of the pregnancy going full-term up to 90%. Research shows it takes at least 3 months to improve egg and sperm quality. Lifestyle changes, nutrition and stress can show up in egg and sperm quality.

  • Diminished ovarian reserve
  • Poor Morphology or Sperm Quality
  • Advanced maternal age
  • High FSH levels

Weight Loss & Acupuncture!

Take a traditional approach to healing. Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) take a holistic, or whole-body approach to health. According to TCM, the reasons why people gain weight, or find it difficult to lose weight, are numerous. The World Health Organization (WHO), stated that there are an estimated 1 billion overweight adults. These overweight adults spend billions of dollars annually on weight loss products that are often dangerous. Those who turn to diet pills, extreme fasting, fad diets, or surgeries are putting themselves at risk. Acupuncture works to control weight on various levels and will help: release endorphins, reduce stress, reduce appetite and support digestion. Turning to acupuncture for weight loss is a natural and effective approach.

However, once the damage is done, the recurrence of back pain can be as high as 50 percent. Part of this is because as we age, things like muscles and tendons become less flexible and pliable. It is also very well known in the United States, people are too sedentary and this leads to excess weight gain that can create added pressure on the body, especially the low back. continue reading »
