Natural Infertility Treatment
Infertility Treatment
The treatment of infertility with acupuncture and Chinese medicine dates back 2000 years. These ancient time-tested techniques improve fertility rates and support a woman’s whole body, unlocking unlimited potential for health, healing, and childbearing.
A landmark study published in the medical journal Fertility & Sterility found that acupuncture dramatically improves the chances of becoming pregnant when used in conjunction with other assisted reproductive techniques. Researchers from Weill Cornell Medical Center in New York reviewed studies and concluded that acupuncture helps to:
Increase blood flow to the uterus, which improves the chances of an ovum implanting on the uterine wall
Reduce anxiety, stress, and the hormones that are secreted during stressful situations that can significantly decrease fertility
Normalize hormone and endocrine systems that regulate ovulation, especially in women with Polycystic Ovarian Syndrome
Positively affect the hypothalamic-pituitary-ovarian axis which plays a key role in fertility and regulates menstrual cycle
In a study published in Human Reproduction Journal, an ultrasound was used to evaluate blood flow to the uterus during acupuncture treatments. The study found that blood flow increases during treatment. According to Dr. Nancy Snyderman, “when acupuncture needles are placed correctly, it can affect the nervous system. The idea is that if you stimulate the nervous system, you can make the uterus quiet and allow blood to flow”. Relaxing the uterus and increasing blood flow allows for the successful implant of an embryo within the uterine lining.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine can raise the fertility potential for women by affecting the quality, quantity, balance, and flow of Qi (pronounced Chee) and blood. When Qi, also called Life Energy, and blood is circulating freely throughout the body, every cell, tissue, and organ is properly nourished and functioning well. When this occurs, a woman’s health and fertility are increased.
The theory of acupuncture and Chinese medicine view infertility as an imbalance of Qi and blood affecting one or more of the Organ Systems.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine provide a safe, effective, drug-free, and natural approach toward the conception of a healthy pregnancy.
