Welcome to Brisbane’s Trusted Clinic
for Fertility Acupuncture
ABOUT ACUPUNCTURE
Let Us Help Boost Your
Fertility With Acupuncture
Acupuncture has been scientifically proven to improve blood flow to the uterus and ovaries, leading to healthier eggs, embryos, and uterine lining. By enhancing the menstrual cycle, acupuncture sets the foundation for a successful pregnancy. Additionally, hormonal imbalances can affect both sexes, causing symptoms like low energy, reduced libido, irregular menstrual cycles, and mood swings.
Acupuncture effectively addresses these issues by lowering cortisol levels, reducing stress, and promoting hormone balance.
At Feel Good Acupuncture, our certified professionals integrate acupuncture with dietary and lifestyle strategies to optimize fertility care.
ACUPUNCTURE & OTHER FERTILITY TREATMENTS
Enhancing IVF and IUI Success with Expert Acupuncture
Clinical research shows that combining acupuncture with IVF significantly improves success rates. Women who receive acupuncture alongside IVF have higher pregnancy rates compared to those who only undergo IVF. We recommend weekly acupuncture sessions for three months before IVF, with additional treatments during key phases.
Acupuncture also enhances IUI success by improving blood flow, relaxing the uterus, and addressing post-procedure spasms. The frequency of sessions during IUI is tailored to individual needs.
