A: All types of problems have been treated with acupuncture in China for thousands of years.
Acupuncture is recognized by the National Institute of Health (NIH) and the World Health Organization (WHO) to be effective in the treatment of a wide variety of medical problems. Here is a list of a few problems acupuncture and Chinese medicine has been effective in treating:
A: Acupuncture works by inserting the needles in specific Acu-points on your body to activating and redirecting your body’s own natural energy. Once the energy is flowing properly again the pain will be gone and the natural healing process can begin. We use only single use, sterile, stainless steel needles, there are no medicine or chemicals on the needles, It is not going to pollute your body and we do not use them to cut or block the nerve fibers.
A: Return for acupuncture treatment every other day until your problem is completely gone. The best result for acupuncture is when you come in as soon as possible after you feel something wrong with you, in this case it may only take one or two treatments. Tell your Acupuncturist all of your health complaints the very first visit. Avoid the foods you are told "no" and alcohol, ice water/cold drinks for 48hrs after each treatment.
A: Because each food has different energy and goes to different energy channel, we are directing your healing energy to go to a specific energy channel and help your body heal itself. some foods may interrupt this healing process.
A: We are not putting the needles on the wrong side! True Traditional Chinese Medicine has used the opposite side to treat most problems for thousands of years. Of course there are always exceptions.

Acupuncture has been used to treat infertility for over 2,000 years. Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine views the person holistically as an integral mind/body organism. Infertility treatment works on improving the woman's overall health. It increases blood perfusion and energy in the uterus, strengthens physical and mental state, and balances hormone levels in order to provide a more optimal environment for conceiving and carrying a baby. Natural medicine Center has used this holistic method to help many patients, including those who have had failed IVF/IUI attempts to become pregnant naturally, or by their next IVF/IUI attempt.
Advantages of Acupuncture Treatment for Infertility
Acupuncture... • is safe and virtually painless. It can be effectively used alone without invasive procedures or fertility drugs, thus avoiding potentially negative side effects.
• is effective even for women who had failed IVF/IVI attempts.
• costs a fraction of IVF/IUI procedures, which run tens of thousands of dollars.
• can be used in conjunction with IVF/IUI and other Western medical treatments.
• helps to increase the success rate of IVF. A German study has shown that Acupuncture increases IVF success rate dramatically from 26% to 42%.
• holistically improves the woman's general health which promotes conception and pregnancy. This also decreases chances of miscarriage.
• alleviates stress. Stress may be related to many unknown infertility cases. High levels of stress hormones are known to suppress fertility and reduce the chances of conception.
• balances hormone levels, regulate menstrual cycles, and alleviate menstrual pain. This helps the body to store essential energy and to be prepared for conception.
Acupuncture Infertility Treatment Plan
Since each infertility case is unique, the treatment period required to improve the body's condition varies. Usually, it takes 2-3 months. It is recommended that the patient undergo two acupuncture sessions per week. For natural conception, treatment may continue until pregnancy. For IVF patients, treatment may continue until embryo transfer. During the course of the treatment, the woman can generally expect to experience mental relaxation, relief in menstruation difficulty, greater health, and more energy.
If a woman decides to use acupuncture treatment in conjunction with IVF/IUI, we recommended that she begins acupuncture treatment as early as possible before the start of IVF/IUI procedures. Natural Medicine Center has increased IVF success rates in many patients even in their 40s.
