Frequently Asked Questions
__________________
Q: Does it Work?
A: Recent scientific research has reported that Acupuncture and Chinese medicine have a great impact on the fertile health of a couple. In IVF transfers, acupuncture was proven to increase chances 35%-60%.
Q: Can I combine this with Western Medicine?
A: Yes, in fact we work with many local medical doctors and fertility clinics. By using a combination of Alternative medicine and Western medicine you can increase your chances of a healthy pregnancy. We can assist you through any of your fertility treatments including IVF or IUI cycles, medicated cycles and with early pregnancy.
Q: How long do I need treatment?
A: For fertility specific clients, ideally we would like to see you weekly for a minimum of 3 months before any major procedure. However, this is not always an option and depends on your timeline and your doctor's timeline. We do have focused treatment plans for shorter schedules. More treatments may be indicated in those who have a history of PCOS, endometriosis, PMS/PMDD, elevated FSH or have already undergone ART. Males may need more treatments if they have a history of UTI's, STD's, chronic low back ache or pain or other urological health concerns.
