Creating the Optimal Conditions for Conception

At Acupuncture Atelier, we understand that fertility is about more than simply becoming pregnant—it’s about cultivating an internal environment where life can thrive. Our fertility-focused acupuncture sessions are designed to help your body function at its best, whether you are trying to conceive naturally, preparing for assisted reproductive technologies (ART) such as IVF or IUI, or looking for postpartum recovery support.

Our approach blends the time-honored wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) with evidence-based strategies that support hormonal balance, reproductive health, and emotional well-being. Each treatment is carefully personalized to your unique cycle, health history, and goals.

Fertility acupuncture is grounded in the principle that reproductive health reflects the overall health of the body. By working with your body’s natural rhythms, acupuncture helps to:

• Regulate menstrual cycles for predictable ovulation
• Enhance blood flow to the uterus and ovaries for better egg quality and endometrial receptivity
• Reduce stress hormones such as cortisol, which can disrupt ovulation and implantation
• Improve hormonal balance to stabilize the follicular and luteal phases
• Support implantation during IVF or IUI cycles
• Address underlying conditions such as PCOS, endometriosis, or thyroid imbalance that may impact conception

Our goal is to create an environment in which conception can occur more easily and where pregnancy can be sustained.

Through our fertility support therapy, we work with individuals and couples experiencing a variety of reproductive challenges, helping them navigate the journey to parenthood with a whole-body, holistic approach. Our goal is to address both the physical and emotional factors that can impact conception, while also supporting your overall health and well-being.

By caring for the whole person—not just the reproductive system—we create a stronger foundation for conception, pregnancy, and long-term wellness. Our goal is to help the body return to balance so that the natural process of creating new life can happen more easily and healthfully.

Many of our fertility patients choose to integrate acupuncture into their IVF or IUI cycles for better outcomes. We create treatment schedules designed to complement your clinic’s protocol, often including:

Pre-IVF Cycle Preparation – Supporting egg quality, hormone regulation, and uterine lining health in the months leading up to treatment.

Stimulation Phase Treatments – Enhancing ovarian response and circulation during follicle stimulation.

Pre- and Post-Embryo Transfer Sessions – Reducing uterine contractions, improving receptivity, and promoting relaxation for implantation.

Luteal Phase Support – Encouraging progesterone production and embryo development after transfer.

This integrative approach helps bridge the gap between conventional fertility medicine and holistic care, providing you with comprehensive support.

Your journey begins with a thorough discussion of your reproductive history, cycle patterns, emotional health, and lifestyle. We also review any fertility testing or medical treatments you’ve undergone to tailor your plan effectively.

Using traditional techniques such as pulse reading, tongue inspection, and gentle palpation, we identify patterns of imbalance that may be affecting your reproductive system.

Using fine, sterile, single-use needles, we gently insert them into the targeted muscle fibers. This process is typically quick and well-tolerated, with most clients describing only a mild pinch or pressure. The goal is to stimulate a natural healing response and help release built-up muscle tension.

During your treatment, ultra-fine needles are placed at precise points to stimulate blood flow, balance hormones, and calm the nervous system. Many patients report feeling deeply relaxed, grounded, and emotionally supported.

Moxibustion: Gentle heat therapy to warm the uterus, improve blood circulation, and strengthen reproductive energy.

Herbal Medicine: Customized herbal prescriptions to regulate cycles, nourish the blood, and support ovulation.

Gua Sha and Cupping: Relieving tension, reducing inflammation, and promoting pelvic circulation.

Lifestyle and Nutritional Guidance: Evidence-informed recommendations for diet, exercise, and stress management to improve reproductive health.

Our practitioners have advanced, specialized training in reproductive health and women’s wellness, allowing us to create acupuncture protocols tailored specifically for fertility needs. Whether you’re preparing for natural conception, IUI, or IVF, we draw on both Traditional Chinese Medicine principles and the latest research to support reproductive function, regulate cycles, and enhance overall wellness.

We recognize that fertility health is about more than just the reproductive system. Stress, sleep, nutrition, digestion, and emotional well-being all play a role in conception. That’s why our treatments address the whole person—helping to restore balance physically, emotionally, and energetically so your body is in the best possible state to conceive and sustain a healthy pregnancy.

We believe in a collaborative approach to fertility care. If you are working with a reproductive endocrinologist, OB/GYN, or other healthcare provider, we coordinate treatments to complement your medical plan. Our goal is to enhance the effectiveness of your existing care, improve outcomes, and provide holistic support during what can often be an overwhelming process.

We combine the warmth of a boutique wellness practice with the efficiency of modern healthcare. From 24/7 online scheduling and secure HIPAA-compliant messaging to paperless intake forms, every step of your experience is designed to be convenient, supportive, and stress-free—because your energy is best spent focusing on your wellness, not on logistics.

If you’re looking for a natural, supportive, and individualized approach to your fertility journey, acupuncture may be a powerful addition to your care plan. It’s gentle, non-invasive, and adaptable—making it suitable for those at any stage of the conception process. Whether you’re trying to conceive naturally, undergoing assisted reproductive technologies like IUI or IVF, or simply preparing your body for a future pregnancy, fertility acupuncture works alongside your body’s rhythms to improve overall reproductive health.

Acupuncture supports hormonal balance, optimizes blood flow to the reproductive organs, reduces inflammation, and helps regulate menstrual cycles—all while addressing the stress and emotional strain that can accompany fertility challenges. Because it works in harmony with the body’s natural processes, it can be integrated seamlessly with conventional fertility treatments or used as a standalone method for those seeking a holistic path to conception.
