Recent figures show that around one in four couples wanting to conceive suffer with some degree of infertility and a period of 18 months trying is not uncommon. Some couples never manage to conceive and have to turn to alternative assisted methods like IVF or ICSI. However failure to conceive does not mean complete infertility! If and when a woman does conceive depends on a wide range of factors, being it physical and/or psychological. The dietary habit of both partners is also crucial to enable conception.

Acupuncture has been proven to be safe for both you and your baby with no unpleasant side-effects. It is a non-invasive treatment that has been practised for thousands of years, and can help alleviate a wide variety of symptoms and conditions.

A number of good quality controlled trials suggest acupuncture is effective for treating infertility for both women and men, and any other problems that arise during pregnancy, such as, morning sickness, back pain, constipation etc.

Acupuncture’s gaining popularity for infertility and pregnancy care is partly due to the fact it is a drug-free treatment and many women do not want to take modern drugs as this may cause harm to the foetus.

Upon arriving at your first acupuncture session it will be critical to understand how your body is working in order to correct imbalances through a combination of acupuncture, dietary advice and general life-style changes. Women who are coming for treatment should start to implement preconception advice at least 3 months before trying to conceive, treatment is usually performed on weekly basis according to the menstrual cycle.
